November - December 2015 - As the Holidays Approach!

As the Holidays Approach!

I am pleased to have a wonderful and productive holiday season scheduled (with more requests still coming in).  Aside from performances, I also have a couple of opportunities to sell my merchandise at holiday shopping events (see more details below).  In addition, we have some family gatherings planned.  Things are pretty exciting around here!

If you have a chance, stop by the Wild Wacky Women of the World's Holiday Shopping Event on Saturday, December 12, 2016 from 1 to 2:30pm at the Brier Creek Country Club, Raleigh, NC.  I will be participating as a vendor at this event, selling my music CDs, Meet Cookie (the dog), Pick Pretties, and my other services all day.  There is shopping and a catered buffet luncheon from 10am on if you buy an exclusive access ticket for $30 - Otherwise, the 1pm shopping time is open and free. Contact or (919) 924-4370 to reserve your seat for the morning & luncheon event.

The Galleria, 9650 Strickland Rd, Raleigh, NC 27615 is also carrying my CDs, Meet Cookie (the dog), and Pick Pretties merchandise through the Christmas Season. 

Most of my music & merchandise can also be purchased through my own website, of course, so feel free to take a look.  I have some downloadable songs including some singles, as well as CDs individually or in combination.  (If you don't see something you like at PickPretties.com, let me send you some photos of new designs added that did not make it to the site yet or I can design a custom pair.)

I have added a new blog about Singing Telegrams (See Staying Inspired), and some updates on my activities below.

If things get too overwelming during the holidays, you can always break down and sing your lament (or write a song), scribble the walls with holiday cookie icing, cozy up with a warm blanket and a cup of eggnog (or something better), post something silly on Facebook, or chase your dogs/cats/kids around the block.  Get creative!

As you travel near and far, stuff yourself (and the turkey?), prepare to give (and to receive) it is my deepest wish that you experience the safest, happiest, healthiest, most joyful holiday season ever!
