Brenda York writes...
“On most days, Miguel and Gaspar coordinate their outfits in hopes of landing on Vanity Fair’s Best-Dressed List. On the other days they just make sure their pjs are clean and pressed. And that Miguel’s are not on backwards. Again.”

Gaspar and Miguel won my heart because of their firm friendship and because Brenda’s insider tidbits about their foibles and fantasies had me giggling away at my own. I couldn’t bring myself to vocalize so chose to represent Miguel with banjo and Gaspar with the sweet harmonics of an acoustic guitar (via a midi sequencer).
Trust you enjoy this collaboration and thanks for stopping by.
Happy hours to you each time you press your PJs
