Hi! I’m a spunky free-spirit musician/artist/seamstress/gardener, and I share this blog with my husband, Phil. Whilst his blogs are uber nerdy, technical and deep, mine are light, fun and generally more suited to female interests. I always have a project going, and that attributes to the randomness of my posts. My two biggest projects right now are my garden and my store. However, side projects can range from creating a chandelier out of empty wine bottles to trying a new bizarre recipe.

Teaching

I teach music to little peeps at an elementary school. I majored in this at the U of A, and have been doing it since I graduated in 2004. I also teach private piano, voice and guitar lessons to a range of ages.

Music

I enjoy doing acoustic covers of popular songs with my guitar, Marie. She’s a beauty. I am guilty of listening to the pop/R&B crap on 93.7 KRQ (Phil hates that), but I do have some legit music preferences, such as Jimmy Eat World, Kate Walsh, and Ingrid Michaelson. Many more, but those are my main influences.

Bucket List

  • Go to Europe
  • Go to Asia
  • Go back to Europe
  • Write/record/produce an album
  • Go on a cruise
  • See New York

Other Endeavors For Funsies

I shop. I sew. I draw/paint. I nurture my millions of plants. I cook and bake. I read lots of blogs and books.
