Doing a little luthiery work today for my client Rick Cole. Done a few guitars for him now and I'm really liking this work! If you have a guitar that needs a little love hit me up!

Just whipped up a delightful batch of black raspberry jam today! The star ingredient? Fresh black raspberries I foraged right from my backyard, mixed with cane sugar. This simple recipe really captures those summer vibes! Can't wait to slather it on warm sourdough with butter.

Something new I'm doing on my Youtube Channel Samsara Guitars - "Culinary Corner". My first episode is innoculating a log with Shiitake Mushroom Spores! youtu.be/EgdVkozIC5c
