Thing in My House I Can't Live Without

The one item in Foy’s apartment that she absolutely cannot bear the thought of parting ways with is her upright Yamaha piano. Next on the list is her sound healing bowl, which seems to calm her neighbor’s barking dog (unlike her shaky rendition of Moonlight Sonata).
