(JTA) â The day was cold, but not too cold â typical March weather for the Rocky Mountains. I was heading to Boulder to pick up one of our daughters from the University of Colorado. COVID had canceled their regular spring break, but she needed some time away from campus, so off I went. Her twin sister had opted to stay on campus.
I stopped at the King Soopers in South Longmont, a town 12 miles northeast of Boulder. Weâve shopped at this store for the 21 years weâve lived in this town. Many of the employees have been there the whole time, from the days when Iâd push the bright red car cart with three kids to now, shopping for my husband and myself. This morning, I was picking up a few of our daughterâs favorite items â blueberries, Yerba Mate, fresh basil for the pesto I was planning on making for dinner that night.Â

The first single, “Kickin’ It with My Chicken,” is available now, and the googly-eyed special edition CD is available for pre-orders via Bandcamp and KelliWelli.com.
The album of 15 original songs starts with “The Hat Song.” This peppy party tune encourages imaginative play and the power of a chapeau to take the wearer practically anywhere. Next up is the bluegrassy tune “The Smilers,” about how to make the best of even the darkest day. Wordplay and whimsy are hallmarks of the title track “Let’s Go Pistachio” (which could be a helpful parenting resources to entice kids to get out the door), and the songs “Peanut Pine Nut” and “Kickin’ It with My Chick
