Zee Avi

Today I got Miss Zee Avi's new album.  It is called "Ghostbird" and is just as magically whimsical and lovely as her first album.  It is the soundtrack for this week of my life.

You might have heard this song from her first album:



This little lady is really just a little baby whose voice has qualities comparable to a Billie Holiday it its vintage twists and turns.  Her voice always calms me down.  It takes me to a happy place on a beach somewhere.

This is my very favorite of her songs:
(I love to play this one on my uke b/c Emmacita will sing it...)



Ahhhh... I think I'll go take a nature walk or something!


Quote of the day:
“Charity is having patience with someone who has let us down.  It is resisting the impulse to become offended easily.  It is accepting weaknesses and shortcomings.  It is accepting people as they truly are.  It is looking beyond physical appearances to attributes that will not dim through time.  It is resisting the impulse to categorize others.” –President Thomas S. Monson
