- The silliest: LMFAO, Sexy and I know it. Please don't judge but this one cracks me up!
- The sexiest: Ricky Martin, Juramento. People who know me, know how much this is a fantasy of mine.
- The sweetest: Cyra Morgan, Sanctuary. Cyra is just so beautiful and I am so blessed to have her in my life.
- The one that makes me remember: Creed, Rain. The rain, the regret, the wonder, everything all fell into place and it was important...then this song played on the radio.
- The sentence I could not complete: Colbie Caillat, I Never Told You. I think we all have these moments when we can't say anything right.
- The one that makes me melt: Amos Lee, Arms of a Woman. I hope to be this woman...the one that feels like home.
- The one that fills me with HOPE: Amos Lee, Windows Are Rolled Down. Life keeps moving and the wind keeps changing but there is always a moment when you take on these changes and accept them.
- A new friendship: Evan St. Martin: Just In Time. A new friend and incredible talent! I can't wait to see him fly.
- The one that empowered me: Ingrid Michaelson, Maybe. Sometimes you just need to walk away.
- The cutest by far: Zooey Deschanel & Joseph Gordon-Levitt, What Are You Doing New Year's Eve? Sweet isn't it?

Embracing it ALL...
One of my favorite things about this time of year is the chance to gather with friends and family. At home, we began listening to Christmas music and decorated the house around Thanksgiving. The kids are jumping out of their skin with excitement as they write and re-write their letters to Santa. There are school concerts to prepare for, holiday strolls and tree lighting ceremonies, ice skating parties, and lots of shopping. The lists are long but the smiles are bright and the jingling of the Salvation Army bells outside of the local supermarket remind us that it is a season of generosity.

Poppin' Up At A Storefront Near You
I just completed my first solo shift at the Artisans Gallery in Mystic Connecticut and am so excited to be a part of a recent trend helping with downtown revitalization. Pop-up galleries are appearing all over city blocks, filling vacant spaces and providing venues for willing artists. The first of its kind in our area, the Artisans Gallery, is the cooperative effort of 7 local artists. Located near the corner of West Main and Pearl in Mystic, it is right in the heart of downtown and is easily accessible. We are currently open every Saturday from 12-7:30 p.m. and will be participating in the Mystic Art Night every 1st Thursday of the month from 6-9 p.m. Be sure to stop by and say hello when you are out strolling. We may not be there forever but we will be sure to let you know where we will POP-UP next!
