OH Oahu I Love You

The best of nature, a stunning coastline, and brilliant beaches contrasted with the best of city life in Honolulu. We rented a jeep to circle the island (not the first time I have done this nor will it be the last) because it is the best way to take in Oahu beauty. We went back to the Northshore, ate the best shrimp on the planet and ended the day at Waikiki beach.

this is where I began my love for seafood ten years ago!

YUMMMMMM

SO Handsome...

Christmas Movies

Watched Love Actually last night with the cast in the theater. LOVE this film! I think next week will be Elf, 

and the week after that will be a It's a Wonderful Life. 

We will have to fit in Christmas Story at some point too. I pretty much cry at all of these movies and love every moment. Bring on the sentimental Christmas tears!

CD Cover

Jason Campbell Photography is on somewhat of a hiatus at the moment but he dusted off his camera to take some very cool pictures of a certain soprano. He did such an amazing job as always so she is having a hard time deciding which one should be her cover/flipside/cd imprint. If anyone who may be possibly reading this has any input she would surely appreciate it! She thanks you in advance for your time!

Thanksgiving 2011

...was a kind of a bust. It’s ok though because I am still thankful and that’s the point right? Thankful to have a job performing and to be doing just that on Thanksgiving day was not too bad, but definitely did not feel like Thanksgiving with all the fixings. I did two shows, a rehearsal and ate a wrap instead. I am REALLY looking forward to making up for it by spending Christmas with my family who have been approved to come onboard for the Hawaiian cruise! Thankful for that and thankful for the guest staterooms with balconies we have been approved for. So glamorous!

I am also immensely thankful to hear some positive news about the cancer my best friend Jaimee’s mom Mrs. P is fighting right now. Most important thing to be thankful for is health and especially hers at this time.

Now I will show you what I did on Thanksgiving.

I am thankful for white spandex with gold sequins.

And The Envelope Please...

Tonight's show... The Envelope Please. A smorgasbord of award winning Film, TV and musical theater music. I sing everything from Judy Garland to Celene Dion and back again. It's one of those shows that with the costume changes you feel like you are being shot out of a cannon from the minute you step onto the stage. But they say what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. I concur.

Sooner or Later from Dick Tracy

Back on Board

Back to my home away from home. Gets harder each time as I fall more in love with Mr. Jason Campbell, but I am glad I have my very close friends here to keep me company to distract me from my sorrow and make me laugh very hard... constantly. This is a good portrayal of our state of being most of the time:

First cruise: Traveling though one of my favorite states with ports in Santa Barbara, San Fransisco, Ensenada, San Diego and LA. Happy Thanksgiving week everyone!

Don't Cry for me Argentinian Tapas

Alma 33 in the west village was our Groupon date night activity. I wore my leather jacket I had made in Argentina by accident (or was it?) even though it was a lovely unseasonably warm and beautifully balmy evening out.

On the menu for the Campbells:    
Pintxos De Entraña steak skewers with chimichurri

Tabla De Embutidos selection of cured meats with pickles and olives		Tabla De Quesos selection of cheeses with homemade confit and jam

Calamares A La Romana fried calamari with salsa alma 33 (salsa chimichurri & spicy marinara sauce) Tartara De Ternera prime hand-cut beef with reggianito chips, quilmes foam and raw quail egg

All that and two glasses of Argentinian Malbec and we were feeling like we were back in Argentina again!
