WordPress, I must confess and I digress that I have loved this forum. Although now I realize, I have no audience and that I really bore them!

I send you Yuletide greetings and best wishes too. That this holiday season, brings great joy to you ❤️.

YouTube And TikTok Goes The Clock

Christmas Time 2023, let the decorating begin.

So much has been happening that I haven’t had the time to post. A lot of family dynamics good and bad. Busy and a reluctance to bore you lol!

Musically, I’ve been creating more content for my YouTube channel- Shorts have been fun to create as well. You’ll find a variety of content including my home life, cooking/ baking endeavors and my pet besties.

I also have a TikTok account where I post regularly. https://vm.tiktok.com/ZPRv4tKVy/

I have chosen to create content because, it’s fun! I love experimenting with special effects and music. Another artful and creative outlet that keeps my mind busy.

Please check out my channels! Leave me a message while you’re there! Hope you enjoy a wonderful holiday season ❤️.

My Independence Day Celebration Cake

Into the oven it went!
Cooling for several hours. After a few hours, I put it in the fridge for another few hours to cool.
A light chocolate whipped cream topped this chocolate cake- Adorned with whipped cream, raspberries and blueberries.
A pretty baking vessel helps make this simple cake a little more festive.

My Mind Games Escape

Below is the YouTube Link to a very special near and dear to me moment in time…

https://youtu.be/hzq3ZpOgoW4 – Mind Games, written by John Lennon, my cover music with home video. Found this old movie in my #iMovieTheater. The cover music was so much fun to create. The audio was created via #AudioCopy. It is actually a two different tracks capture. My basic piano track with a layered orchestra track. My kinda fun, my kinda day! This slideshow inspired tears this morning as I watched it. The kids have all grown up so much and, so fast! The audio reminds me of the special day of creating that felt magical. I remember the feeling of being completely engrossed and taken over. Escaping in the beauty of the composition and the spirit of the music. It just kind of took me somewhere else and I loved it❤️. A special spiritual type experience!

Zoe’s Carrot Cake Was A Showstopper

Zoe’s Carrot Cake Was A Showstopper !

The music is my cover rendition of, Great Gig In The Sky. Written by Pink Floyd. I added a few effects. My wind chimes and the birds in my yard!

Zoe’s Cake Was A Show Stopper- https://youtu.be/fbVeJQ_Ico8 – Here is the YouTube link to the video I posted of our Easter Feast. My daughter made a beautiful carrot cake worthy of oohs and ahhhs! Deliciously creamy and moist with a light whipped cream cheese frosting. Amazing ❤️!

Zoe’s Cake-
Zoe and her Dad-

My daughter Delcee made the green beans and Mac and cheese. I made ham, yams, mashed potatoes, glazed carrots, banana bread, orange jello with mandarin oranges, deviled eggs and crescent rolls.

I love cooking for holiday get togethers. My kids always bring their homemade goodies as well.

I Think I Love You

I’ve gotta say that I absolutely adore my pet daughters. All girls in the house. Charlotte, my baby kitty, has just turned a year old. She is the sweetest cat I’ve had in many years. Something about black cats just charms my heart❤️. The opposite of bad luck 🐈‍⬛! I put this video together for my TikTok channel. I also uploaded it to YouTube shorts. It has gotten a ton of views and likes. I wish I was as successful with my music videos… The music in this video is from a cheesy sappy song from the 70’s. It works well here because animal affection is pretty sappy!

My lazy Sunday morning looks like this. All 3 of my pet daughters in near proximity. They love me too! I’m feeling the ❤️.
This is absolutely delicious as well. Lucerne creamers are excellent! Finally, I found the Irish Cream I’ve been longing to have. They did not have it during March for St. Patrick’s day. I’ll take it when I can get it!

I’m still trying to find a musical niche somewhere in this world. I’ll settle for putting slideshows together. Audio/Video Scrapbooking. I suppose it’s my form of artistic expression❤️. By the way, I created a few years ago. I like it! I’m kind of proud of it in fact.

Imagine- is my cover written by John Lennon https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTR3sAKJc/

Have an amazing day!

Planting My ❤️ Garden

I put together a couple of videos using some cover tracks that I made. I’ve decided that putting my home videos and photos with my music is a better way of capturing the essence. Sometimes I tell a story within my videos. I call it audio/video scrapbooking. I’ve posted these videos on my YouTube channel as well as TikTok and my Music Facebook page.

I’m thinking if the general public is somewhat interested then my kids and grandkids will be one day. If not now, then maybe after I’ve left the planet? They are all the stars in my videos. I’ve really enjoyed putting videos together of my life and our get togethers! I know that my son in laws have given me so much sh*! Especially in my early years of putting myself out there on YouTube. I have been the joke of the decade! The razzing turned into a deeply wounding, soul crushing embarrassment for me. It hasn’t stopped me though from putting myself out there and dreaming. The humbling has been deeply embedded in my relationships with them.

I heard all about how people doing silly and ridiculous things on YouTube we’re making a ton of money. While of course this Gram of 8 was putting herself out there musically for free. My savant like oddity of no real interest. I can tell you this, I have so enjoyed the gift! Playing and feeling a spiritual connection has been absolutely amazing. Between me and my maker, it has been the most personal fulfilling experience of my life❤️.

Having recently found out that both of my parents were deeply rooted in musical theater, it all makes sense. The DNA explains my desire to perform music! We are all here to explore our talents and special gifts. I truly believe that DNA has a lot to do with our interests and individuality.

Anyway, here are a few new links to check out.

Fool’s Overture The Soundtrack Of My Life And Video Scrapbook

I hope you enjoy my videos. They are authentic and near and dear to me.

I also hope that you are all enjoying whatever makes your heart sing! Find that creative outlet that frees you and defines your spirit! That’s ultimately what we are here for since none of us get to leave the planet with monetary things. We take with us those things within our spirit that define our souls!

Adding some color to the yard…
*Plant your garden where you can see it… The flowers are the fruit you will leave behind and, take with you❤️*
