It was so much fun bringing in the New Year last night on stage, singing with the Magnolia Jazz Band in Palo Alto. Wish you could have been there, but you were probably having fun wherever you were. Some more Jan. gigs are scheduled, but so far, they’re all private events just like last night. You’ll be the first to know if there’s a booking that’s open to the public. 2015 was an exciting year that culminated in a finished recording of me playing the piano and singing my heart out on 3 healing songs that I wrote. Now, I am looking forward to another happy, healthy, and successful year, and wishing you the same. And, thanks to Sara Glaser who has created this new website, I’m able to do my first post on the first day of 2016!

Although she became embarrassing, unreasonable and very nearly stupid during my teen years, Mom eventually returned to her former self (except…

ByCynthiaWhoa! 2018. Seriously? Sometimes it feels like I’m being pole vaulted through time. There’s never enough of it. The older I get the more important it feels not to fritter any of it away. Precious stuff it is, and easy to get stressed out trying to squeeze in everything I want to do. Funny thing…
