Tis the Season!

This time of year reminds me of Vince Guaraldi- specifically from all of the Peanut specials that were endlessly playing on TV when I was a kid. I'm not well versed in jazz, but I like to think that this is light jazz - or as my husband would call it "kitty" jazz- it just makes me dance around with Bob Fosse jazz hands while bobbing my head like an OG Peanut.

I hear it all over the place this time of year-most recently at a sandwich shop in Ipswitch, where I just had lunch. I'm sure you have all heard his music before and associated it with Charlie Brown, but let me introduce you to Vincent - THE Man. I like to imagine having a sweet (large), mid-century pad full of family over for the holidays, serving up Manhattans and Hot Totties with Vince just quietly jamming in the background- it just SOUNDS like a good time- with lots of head bobbing of course. His music is so charming and nostalgic, I hope you like it as well.

I would recommend listening to Cast Your Fate to the Wind off of his Greatest Hits album to give you a taste of his mellow tunes, or just buy the entire album- it's a steal at only $6.99. My favorite song of his is off of the Charlie Brown Christmas album called Skating. It's my ringtone; year-round people not just during the holidays.

Happy Holidays Everyone!!

Side note here: a friend did a caricature of me the other day in true Peanut style and I LOVE it!
