London, Ontario

In my chambers working away like a crazy little industrious rodent... Settling well into winter in Ontario (aside from the cold part) and planning my great creative hibernation. Will be spending the next few months bouncing back and forth between here and Toronto. Rehearsing and recording and finishing up writing for the new album is the high priority right now, but I'm also working on a few wee artistic side-projects as well. Have grand plans to save the world from evil, as usual. Details to follow soon... 

My new glorious Gretsch named Baby...
It's true love.

Back in the holler for a wee spell! Couldn't head north out of this delicious fall weather quite yet knowing what might be awaiting me up in the great wilds of brrrr... Have been having such amazing adventures. I love my life. Music has been inspired too... Heading home soon to start more work on the new album! Yay yay yay. It's gonna be a productive winter! xoxo Kristin

New York City

Had amazing show last night at the Bitter End with my pal Olivia Maxwell. We rocked the house, man and now I'm going th celebrate by having a couple crazy days in NYC. Today I made my big official pilgrimage uptown to the Menkes store on 54th for purposes of Flamenco shoes and a new Flamenco skirt. It is SO hard to find Flamenco accessories in Canada, not to mention anywhere... The ladies in the store were so great and helped me so much with the finding of the perfect shoes and skirt to fit my body. Excellent. Can't wait to get back to Ontario to start my dance classes again. Here for another day or two to visit with friends and then back to the holler for a day or two. Tomorrow my friend Elisa Korenne is taking me all about Brooklyn on a stoop-sale hopping mission. Apparently you can score big at such events... Hope to hook up with the amazing Chris Brown for dinner this evening. Check out his website please as he is SO supremely talented and doing such important work. I heart NYC. Not to mention the eternal glory of this sunny sunny GORGEOUS weather. Loving the high-70 degrees in November. Yeah, baby.

Happy Halloween! How much do I love this day? Kickin' it up down in the holler with my friend Jenny and dear amigo Trevor Mills who came down from Pennsylvania to visit. If you click on the more photos link and scroll to the bottom you can see us in our costumes... Can you guess what we are? I also went the full mile on the Jack-o-lantern carvin' this year. Hooray for those new-fangled pumkin-saw carving kits that make life so much easier than when I was young... Here for a few more days then New Yeeork City bound!! Eeee!
