July 4th 2011 Fireworks over the Hudson River - New York Skyline

What a fun July 4th weekend with Tommy, Sara, Leo and Milo! On Saturday, we went and got lunch at Cinnamon Snail and enjoyed a great sunny picnic at Esplanade Pier A Park in Hoboken then back home for a nice swim in the pool. We were most impressed with Leo's swimming.

On July 4th, we enjoyed great Vegan Rooftop BBQ at Tommy & Sara's house in East Village. The bubbles were awesome. We made it back home in time to get a nice spot close to home for the fireworks.

Here are a few photos from this year's July 4th Fireworks over the Hudson River overlooking New York Skyline. As usual, Macy's put up a really spectacular show of fireworks to celebrate the birth of our Nation.

Proof of donation to “Japan Earthquake Tsunami Children in Emergency Fund”

Sorry for the lateness. I have been really busy juggling between production, shows and all that fun stuff being an designer/maker of LA MUSE KALLIOPÊ.  As promised, 20% of all sales profit made by LA MUSE KALLIOPÊ until Easter ~ April 24th was donated to “Japan Earthquake Tsunami Children in Emergency Fund”. I also added to the amount to make $150.

LA MUSE KALLIOPÊ and Les Musettes will be at the 35th Annual American Crafts Festival at Lincoln Center in NYC from June 18-19, 2011. 

On June 25, come find us at Not Yo' Mama's Craft Fair in Historic Downtown - Jersey City. 

It will be a lot of fun. We will be rolling out tiny Make-A-Wish Wannabe Dragon Monsters (only 2 inches!) in vibrant, fun colors!!! Please come visit.

Hoboken Art & Music Festival 2011

Hoboken Arts & Music Festival May 1, 2011 was a really fun day. Lots of food, live music and whimsical"Lil' Muses".

Jillian (journalist) and Julio (cameraman) from "Hudson County TV"came and interviewed us. Towards the end of the interview, Jean's multi-lingual skills (as she, herself puts it, 5 secondary language with no primary...zzzttt...Oh-la-la...no primary...zut alors!) jinxed her and she said some mind boggling things. But here is the translation of what she wanted to say concerning the Make-A-Wish Wannabe Dragon Monsters.

You make a wish and clip a triangle on the spine of the Wannabe Dragon Monster. When the wish comes true, you clip a larger one. You keep wishing and clipping until the Wannabe Dragon Monster has a nice row of spikes down its back that you provided it with. Finally, the Wannabe Dragon Monster gets its wish too by becoming a real Dragon Monster. Pssstt...you can give your Wannabe Dragon Monster a really funky hairdo or Mohawk spike with your own creativity down it's back.

Many wishes come true to ya all!!!
