Day 16: Fresh Veggies Day
What are you favorite veggies? Mine are tomatoes

I enjoy so many veggies but my favorite is probably a nice french radish with a bit of fresh butter and a sprinkle of sea salt. Perfection.

The Beach Boys - Smiley Smile

Looks like I was able to spin Smiley Smile after all.

Fun Fact: Paul McCartney was recorded eating celery for the track “Vegetables” though it’s unclear whether his chomping actually made the final cut.

Day 17: Nursing Assistants Day
Essential workers, let's appreciate them today!

Sonic Youth - Sonic Nurse

My Grandmother was an was a NICU Nurse for 50 years. I love my Grandma, I also love Sonic Youth. I don’t think my grandmother would be much of a fan of Sonic Youth though; She prefers The Rat Pack.

June 18 - Take a Road Trip Day - Make a mix tape and cruise!

Going with @Turbo on this one. K-Tel compilations are a guilty pleasure and were always a good source of songs for mixtapes. Not to mention the covers were always well designed. Case in point here with the font and picture.

Right On ~ Various Artists (K-Tel)

Take a Road Trip Day

Sun Ra - The Cymbals / Symbols Sessions: New York City 1973


"Destination of the Known Unknown" is a fantastic summation of my favourite element to a good and proper road trip, when it does indeed feel like "The Universe is Calling."
