This will not be a long review, as I’m suppose to be practicing. My Annual Birthday Gig is this Saturday night (I’ll be 54 on sunday), & I’m working on a new tune to add to my performance, ‘Butterfly’ by Herbie Hancock. Playing Jazz on the Harp is challenging, & this piece definitely has it’s difficulties, but it looks like it’s gonna fall into place!
After weeks of reading reviews about this puer, I finally bought myself a Phatty Cake! I’ve been sipping on it for a few hours now, during my breaks & it is quite tasty.
So this is a really nice Puer. Rich, creamy, sweet, deep, & dark. It makes me want to sing, “That’s the way, uh huh uh huh, I like it, uh huh uh huh”. I used 5 G, & will probably go a little stronger next time, because I’m like that. This started out with a smooth vanilla feeling, & a hint of ginger, gradually adding layers of flavor: raisin, wood, a sprinkle of salt, a little spice.
I’ve thoroughly enjoyed it, but I can’t drink anymore tea tonight!
And I have to get back to my practicing!

Happy early birthday since i can guarantee i’ll forget by that time haha. It’s been a week to say the least :) I hope you have a fabulous weekend with lots of laughter and smiles
Heard Herbie at Montalvo and he was off on his own planet that night.Even my jazz lovin ex was surprised! Know you’ll do great but isn’t your Birthday a time when you’re supposed to be entertained?!
Thanks Sil!
Bonnie: This will be my first attempt at Herbie, at least in front of an audience. There are several tunes of his I’d like to do, but I especially love this one. I’ve done a gig to celebrate my birthday for years! Gratefully, I always get a huge crowd! There is nothing I’d rather do than play my harp & sing for people, & I have a friend who is an artist, she’ll celebrate 33 years. While I’m playing, she’ll be painting. She is wonderfully talented, & we’ve done this birthday gig together for 4 years, I think. Here’s her website http://www.vesnadelevska.com/
