With my daughter, we do arts and crafts, we read a lot, we listen to music, and we cut the strings off balloons and bounce them around after birthday parties.

I learn so much from writing with other musicians, asking questions about their playing style and gear, and hanging out, too.

The only way to get vegetables at a diner late night is to order the omelette. A feta cheese and broccoli omelette.

I don't have a very routine life; the kids' activities, our nightly routines, and morning routines are about as routine as it gets. In the middle of it all - other than my morning coffee, toast, and trying to get 7-8 hours of sleep a night - each day is different.
