Eat an Apple Every Day, Be In Bed By Three Song Sketch

This song sketch was so much fun to do! I've been wanting to cover this song for a while and March seemed like the perfect month in which to do it. I think the lyrics are a perfect combination of quirky and sweet.

Also, I'm thinking of releasing a digital collection of song sketches for my lullaby c.d. since most lullabies would be simple piano/vox covers anyways. What do you all think of that idea? And what would you say constitutes a lullaby? I sing my baby to sleep while bouncing vigorously on an exercise ball so I feel like the lullabies I choose may not work for most babes...

If you would like a copy of this song for you, just let me know in a comment! If it's your first request, please leave your email address as well.

P.S. Feel free to follow me! I promise only ever to lead you to bright, sunny places!

It's Hard to Be Unhappy...

...when you're looking at Kate Gabrielle's whimsical flapperdoodles! One of my favorite bloggers, Ms. B, mentioned them in a post and I am so glad she did.

Her nonchalant and chic cast of characters do everything from have tea parties and dances to reenact iconic film moments. Of course, my favorite flapper is Emma - she's quite the voracious reader and I think the cutest (she's the one in the frame on the left, naturally).

Kate Gabrielle also has an etsy shop where you can buy prints of these fun illustrations and currently (that is until September 23) she has a "buy one get one free" sale. So whether you need art for yourself or want to give them as a gift, you must agree that these pictures are the bee's knees!
