More Woodpecker, of the Wooliams sort, after the recipe.

Hummus is such a great dip. Easy to whip up in a moment and full of flavor possibilities.

The Red And White Hummus here gets its name from the mixture of red kidney beans and white cannellini beans. Just a hint of garlic and lemon gives it a light and pleasant flavor.

If we ever get together and I have a few drinks, ask me about the woodpecker.

I’m quite sober now, so no woodpecker story, just a song from the fabulous Woodpecker Wooliams.

Diego Diego stopped me in my tracks. What a voice. What a stripped down gorgeous song.

So as not to lock WW in a particular genre, check out this song. Wicked experimental and it drives my cat absolutely BONKERS! The whole time I had it on he was completely agitated, ears back, walking in circles stopping only to bat my head intermittently. It’s a long tune, too, so he was a bit of a mess by the time I had played it through a few times.
