Do you like music? Do you like to get things for free?
Well let me tell you a little secret! Shhhh.....
Every month, on Amazon, there are new songs available for FREE download from artists on the rise! I have gotten some great music this way, including the song I performed last May (now on the radio all the time) "Let Her Go" by Passenger! These songs can be found in the Amazon Mp3 store under "Discover" on the left-hand side of the screen. It says "Free Songs from Artists to Watch." I recommend previewing the songs before buying, as some are better than others, and there are a very wide variety of styles, but there are always at least a few I really like.
There are also a large amount of other free songs, but every time I try to get on and find them, I end up clicking around and sometimes I find them, and sometimes I don't! So, my gift to you:
Free Songs
Free Albums
Again, these songs and albums vary greatly, but there are some great ones on there! Simply listen before you download. I love the Celtic Sampler and some of the Christmas albums, as well as some of the relaxation stuff. Children's music is hit or miss. As a music therapist, you'd think any free children's music would be worth it, but I have turned down free albums more than once.
Good luck and happy "shopping!"

Happy 2014!
Wow! Can it really be 2014 already?!?
While I didn't have any amazingly exciting plans for New Year's Eve, it was nice to enjoy a quiet evening at home in my PJs, and my first day of the new year has been great! I spent my morning finishing the doughnuts I made from my new cook book - delicious! As many of you know, I LOVE doughnuts, and fresh is always best! What's better than homemade?? I made the Apple Fritter recipe from my new Top Pot Doughnut cookbook!
The rest of my day consisted of playing on the silks at TGR with some wonderful friends, and a winter hike (sans snowshoes) with my hubby! Before we start dinner (we're making patty melts! yum!), I decided to take a chance to wish everyone a very happy new year! A wonderful opportunity to start fresh, set goals, and make changes. A chance to evaluate our lives and realize how many wonderful things we have done in the past year!
This year, I:
With Brian's graduation coming this May, I am very excited to see what 2014 will bring for us! It is crazy to know how many changes we will be making this year, and to not know right now where we will be later this year! Luckily.... we like adventures! :-)
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
