Event #16 OPEN FOR MUSIC BUSINESS

Alright folks. Part of Miksy's Playground is NOW A SOUND PRODUCTION STUDIO - oh yeah! More fun for Miksy: creating not just random food and crafts but music and sounds too.

So, should your company require a jingle, background music for an add or any media, background music for the phone line as clients hold or any other music services, feel free to contact Miksy's Playground for a quote. Since I am starting out, I can assure you my prices are MUCH lower than any commercialised recording studio, so you know it's a win win for me AND you :)

Factors that influence the price of the music:

- length
- original composition vs arrangement
- technicality and cost of external sources for recordings should that be necessary
- number of times the client wishes the music to be edited

Our full website is giving us some hassles, but it is online! Checkout www.miksysplayground.com.

ANNOUNCEMENT

So everyone,

I have some GOOD NEWS!
Due to some very generous  FAMILY, FRIENDS and ACQUAINTANCES and ALL OF YOUR SUPPORT I have obtained GOAL 1!!!!! A laptop and logic pro so that I can produce music from home!

As a spiritual act of thanks and glorifying Him who made this all possible, I arranged and produced a song adapted from Bethel Live music. If the bottom audio file doesn't work click here.

But the fun at Miksy's Playground doesn't end here... Oh no siree! This is just the beginning... Next up I am saving for a solid and good, large, weighted MIDI keyboard...

AND if you know of anyone that needs media music services, send them my way!

<3

Event #15 CHILI ROSEMARY SALT

The pictures really don't do this justice.

But here is some of my homemade chili rosemary salt, made with freshly picked rosemary and chili from my (organic) garden!

It is delicious with stews, casseroles, even a great seasoning for rice or boiled veggies. Think chili rosemary seasoned boiled potatoes and wilted spinach with blushing roast lamb basted in a garlicy marinade. Or just chili rosemary salt on popcorn!

The salt has a very slight chili bite but I don't think that it's anything to be afraid of. It's just enough to warm up your insides a little bit. Perfect for these cold Cape Town days.



R23 for 100ml of the salt plus the container and delivery to Southern Suburbs!
Orders are taken till stocks last.
Should you be afraid of chili, I have red pepper rosemary salt!

Order at maikegevers at gmail dot com!

Keep warm and sip on ginger tea if you start feeling a fever come along!

Event #14 - PDA to my dear Gareth

So my fiance lovingly proposed, and then disappeared off to visit his family in JHB, travel Europe, party his unmarried ass off at a wedding (one last time before his own, possibly) and visit more family in England, while I am here fighting off questions like:When are you getting married, what are you wearing, what's your colour scheme? FYI I don't know.

Holy moly. He dodged a bullet that one! But, I do love him, so here's to a massive PDA to him!

This poem is rated. Must be over 18 to read. Sorry.

Dear Gareth Watson,
so fair are you:
you excel all requirements
in all that you do!

Dear Gareth Watson,
none can compare!
It's a rude statement that [to the rest of the population], though
to tell the truth is only fair.

Dear Gareth Watson,
my fiance,
Oh how I am looking forward to
our great day!


Dear Gareth Watson,
so bearded! Its true
that I may not recognise your face
when your return is due.

Dear Gareth Watson,
although that may be the case
I know you'll remind me
with your loving embrace.

Dear Gareth Watson,
with that said,
I love you even on the interwebs,
how much more in ...! (I just can't seem to think of the right word here)

Dear Gareth Watson,
that may have been offsides.
Therefore I shall stop rhyming now,
and work on masters revisions.

With that said (the poetry is now over) I have much studious work to do by Wednesday night, so I will be MIA and working hard on that. Crunchie orders are still open, Kimchi is still available and Crocheted goods are still available!

Event #13 PERMANENT BUTTER CRUNCHIE ORDERS (until further notice!!)

Here's a quick one, folks!

The tea party today was FUN! And some good news - no one had anything bad to say about the crunchies.

Since I have been getting orders over the past two weeks even when not on Miksy's Playground. Therefore I will just come out with it and open orders for butter crunchies again, this time ongoing.

R35 for 10, R60 for 20
Order on maikegevers at gmail dot com
Delivery to southern suburbs included
Can deliver to anywhere should customs allow, delivery costs at extra charge*

Tell your friends. Enquire should you want me to cater large amounts for business meetings or birthday parties etc.

*Please note that postage may break some crunchies...

Event #11 JEAN STIRRUPS BY OUR 1st GUEST!

Today is a very special day as we get to welcome our very first guest on Miksy's Playground!

A warm, heartfelt welcome to Danielle Smith, the creator of ThingsDeeLoves. She is selling some fantastic jean stirrups so that you can wear boots hassle free!

Danielle describes herself as a small town girl living in Cape Town with her husband and two cats. She is a geneticist by day [a top researcher in her field to be a little less vague, according to my trusty sources] and an extremely talented artist by night, particularly in the area of photography, crafts, design and cooking!

 

The actual stirrups will look slightly different to the one in the picture, but this image will give you an idea of the functionality of the product.

Item: a pair of jean stirrups
Price: R40 per pair
Closing date for orders: 5pm on Friday 17 May
Delivery to Cape Town Southern suburbs can be arranged.

Please order on maikegevers at gmail dot com.

Each pair will be made to order, so delivery can be expected within 1-2 weeks.
