We tend to think of a tropical fish tank as being a peaceful thing to have, with the fish kind of slowly floating around.
That is the idea, as far as I can see.
But my fish tank is different.
I have Guppies. These fish breed by giving birth to live young.
I have no idea how they actually mate, and if after reading this you need to find out, then you will have to Google it.
What I do know is that the males spend their whole lives frantically chasing the females, who, presumably to prevent being raped, try to escape.
Not the most relaxing display to provide peace and tranquility!

Fish Tanks can be Annoying.

Xylophone - I used to pronounce it 'ex-low-phone'!
There are not many words that start with the letter x. The name Xavier is a great one, as it also means that the owner get x as an initial!
Anyway, back to the subject, xylophones. I used to pronounce it 'ex-low-phone' as a child.
There are some instruments that are totally distinctive. The Australian Didgeridoo is one, Pan Flutes are another, and of course, the xylophone.
What makes xylophones the most interesting, except perhaps for the Didgeridoo, is the distinctive sound.
What I like best though, is when a real expert player is using one, and they hold multiple hammers in one hand, to strike multiple notes at the same time. Kind of harmonic, I guess, like a 12 string guitar.

Dipped Berries
There is a word, decadence, that can be used in a bad way, such as when describing the Roman Empire, or, a newer use is to give a compliment to a product, generally one that is eaten. You can now even send dipped berries for his birthday by ordering them online. And at the same site, they have, get this, chocolate dipped potato chips.
Reminds me of Hubby, my very own sweetness addict, who eats slices of cheese with fruit spreads or jam on them.
