July 21 - 25 Live Stream Schedule July 20, 2025

Mostly normal schedule this week, but circumstances mean I’ll have to cut the Tuesday recording stream again. I think I either have to move it earlier, or change it to a bi-monthly thing (or both) we’ll see. Meanwhile, we’re singing about boats on the Warble.

Guitars July 17, 2025

I’ve been going through a lot of photos lately and I have a lot (really, a LOT) of pictures of musical instruments in various setting, so today I present you with various corners of various homes I’ve lived in.

A room with a green linolium floor. On it are a glockenspiel, a black violin, a viola, a classical guitar in an open case, a red trunk with a piano accordion on top. I three guitar rack holding two black flying Vs and a...

July 15 - 18 stream schedule July 13, 2025

Lighter schedule this week. Monday is a holiday here, the husband has the day off work, and the sun is supposed to shine the whole time, so we’re going to camp and then hit the beach. (Finally!) Summer songs on the Warble, and I’ll start the Yakuza stream an hour early on Friday, but no streams Monday, and no recording on Tuesday afternoon.

My Birthday Cake June 11, 2025

I’ve had this Betty Crocker cheery chip b-day cake in the same Raggedy-Ann cake pan every year since I was 5. I haven’t made this year’s yet, and I was 40 before I discovered that if you use milk instead of water it doesn’t fall apart. (Even though the box says water or milk! This year I plan to use a can of cream soda.

This one’s from the very first year it didn’t fall apart on me.  An un-iced cake showing an image of Raggedy Ann skipping with a jump rope.

What's In My Toolbox Part 3 Social Media Tools April 05, 2025

I was chatting with another musician recently about our relationship with social media and how I’ve come to really enjoy the way I’m able to find so many different ways to share my music while making new friends all over the world through social media. I can safely say I’ve spent the last couple years figuring out the best tools to use to make and share things to multiple platforms and I thought I’d do a little rundown here.

One is my 3 month laminated reusable wall planner, which I use for the broad overview of what types of things... (more)
