Yo soy un hombre sincero
De donde crece la palma,
Y antes de morirme quiero
Echar mis versos del alma.

note: And old list from last fall. It was supposed to be the head of entire series, winter sound quickly took over before I could post it. But now seems to be the perfect time. It’s mellow and loungy with a tinge of melancholic romance. I think I compile this while building a Shellac type of punk list. That’s why the delicate acoustic with various latin beat. Anyway. Check out the Cal Tjader, one of my fav album. enjoy.

I was looking at this picture and was wondering: are those plants the result of someone who’s really good at doing, well, plants, or is it the result of complete neglect, someone who doesn’t care and just leaves them be? I don’t know! I honestly can’t tell. I do like them though, I’m hoping it’s the last option so I can at least have a bit of hope for having such wonderful plants myself too one day. ;)
Uhm, … sorry. It’s potted plan, so you have take care of it. Not to mention if you don’t live in tropical island (the picture is from Cuba), you have to bring the plan in when it’s cold.
Get a plastic plant. They stay good looking forever.
