Toronto, Ontario
Toronto, Ontario
I’m in crazy Toronto at my dear friends Katie and Masina’s house listening to the streetcars go crash-bang-boom outside the window. I am o so very tired and recovering from a long long long but amazing week. Had a great time at the OCFF conference last weekend and then intensely began working in the studio with my wonderful producer Ken Whiteley, bassist George Koller, drummer Davide Direnzo and an fiddle player Anne Lindsay. It was so great and everything sounds so amazing and I am so very elated right now. I’m gonna celebrate by having a big ol’ bath in kt and m’s giant beautiful bathtub and maybe sipping a wee bit of tequila while they’re off at the bar watching Peaches sing. Tomorrow I’m heading back to London to see my parents off to Hong Kong, Thailand and Japan. But first, I need to zip down to Queen Street to score the one item I most desperately need to add to the aesthetic collection of my life…I mean, how can I resist a giant flaming pink mosquito net with crown velvet trim…impossible I think!!! I will be hiding out in London for the next month or so working hard on grant applications and writing writing writing…
