She sings well, plays a mean ukulele, and can write a song that makes the Giller prize funny.

Sadly, there is no photographic evidence of her superb roast chickens, her deeply satisfying corn bread, or her ethereal lemon blueberry muffins. But she's a dab hand at reading the bible in Old English!
Most impressively, she really knows how to get plastered. And she brings a real spark to our relationship. She proved both these skills late last year, when she mended some iffy drywall and installed a beautiful new light fixture in the bathroom.
Everyone in the house appreciated this, especially Harry, who's made himself a new home in the light fixture box.
Here's to Kelly ... truly her father's daughter!

Aren't we lucky with our partners and pets?!
Kelly is a lady of many talents. I appreciate that she carried my very heavy suitcase down the stairs to the guestroom and cheerfully put up with the cousins going on and on and on about old family stuff.....Next time we'll have to hear a tune on the ukele....perhaps Tucker could sing along....
Kelly, can you come re-do our upstairs bathroom? I sponge-painted it about 15 years ago, but (or rather and) it is sooo pathetic. Still has the naked round globe lamps all in a row, slapped on a piece of poly-varnished oak as a light fixture over the sink. It is terrible.
You can see it in the post, "Chet Baker Rolled."
Please.
