James Taylor's Steampunk Drum Machine






















It's called the Gaddmatic. I just think it's cool. I found out about it here:

Snow Machine

I live in a place where machines like this are necessary. Grab hold of your dogs and children, the snow machine is coming.

Organic Veggies


Organic veggies!!!

Once a week, for $22 a service delivers to us a small box of organic veggies and some other things we might like. Here's what we got this time:

  • a bunch of spinach
  • seven small, beautiful tomatoes
  • two large heads of trees (broccoli)
  • an orange
  • a bag of carrots
  • some sweeeeeet potatoes
  • two large grapefruits
  • a pound of Zapatista coffee beans
  • a mango
  • one pound of delicious salmon
  • four pears
We use this service and we're very happy with them. Maybe they serve your area? If not, maybe there's a similar service where you live?

Pure 'edible' Love. Maybe I should call this blog 'Audibles and Edibles?'

Kiwi for Dessert

I'm going to take this blog places it's never been before... Swoooooooosh!

From here on out
it's going to be about more than just single songs--
but all things Benjamin.
Like this picture of dessert last night. I love sliced Kiwi.

So, geez, I really should introduce myself. I'm Ben. Otherwise known as Bonj, BenJamin, Benjamin Wells, Momotamus and Hey You.

I like to listen to lots and lots of music, mainly because it gives me inspiration to make my own music. You can hear some of it here and here. I'm making more all the time, so stay tuned! I have a (shhhh) secret ambition to create a new album. With just a few hurdles to overcome-- like my total lack of a studio. Currently my creative space is stuffed into the corner of our bedroom.
"Our" bedroom, ah yes, I must mention that I'm married to the MOST beautiful, talented and interesting woman (I'll have to ask if she wants to be introduced) and we have an unbelievably cool son-- who truly is my main inspiration.
I have other interests too-- like this one. Check out Capitol Peak From the Top or Knife Edge Movie. This was an expedition I took last summer alone. Spectacularmo!

If you're reading this-- something brought you here. What was it? I believe... we were meant to know each other. Write me. Tell me. Until next time... much love.

Love or Coffee?

It doesn't happen very often, so I feel it's my duty to document it when it does... a perfect conversational moment. Yesterday morning, upon waking up.

Me: Love or coffee, which should we make?
My wife: why not both?
