Hi gals!!!
Welcome to the Ultimate Blog Party!!! I am Cher Klosner Lane! I am so glad you are here!!
I’m a mom, a musician, and co-founder of Audible Chocolate Productions and co-creator of our Stardust 2-disc lullaby CD! My music and business partner is my brother Gene Klosner, and my sweet hubby is Emmy Award-winning “The Simpsons” Assistant Director and animator, Ben Lane. Ben has put together some fun animated shorts for all of us here and has come up with some cool downloadable party favors (bookmarks) and games for us to play – I love “Stardust Swap” and “Melodibox” (Gene is a champ at "Stardust Swap" - my brother Joe likes "Sheep" ) but I’ll warn ya, you’ll be hooked!! My 7-year-old son loves the “Dream Easel” and he can print off all of his beautiful creations!
Ben and I both work from home. Ben and our son, "Boo" love to work and play together – Boo has done some animation work with Ben as well! Here is their first collaboration, “Smooky Ghost Story.” Music is a big part of our house too so I’ve put up a song, “Little Sir Echo” from our Stardust CD that features Boo and I singing a duet.
One of my favorite stories/poems growing up was "Wynken, Blynken and Nod" by Eugene Field. When it came time to record the CD, I toyed with the idea of putting music to the words, but decided against it, because I was so limited on time before going into the studio. I told my Mom I wasn't going to do Wynken, Blynken and Nod, and she said "You HAVE to have Wynken!!" I said "Mom,...umm... I haven't written it yet." She said, "I don't care! You HAVE to have Wynken." Umm..okay...Mom!! :) I am so glad she pushed me -here it is:
Who likes treats? We do!!! Here is my family’s favorite recipe of all time, “Sugar Cream Pie” – it’s super easy and especially great for holidays, but Ben likes this sweet treat year around.
So come on in, hang out, play some games, download party favors, check out our site, listen to soundclips of our lullaby music, www.stardustlullaby.com/ leave a comment and party with us!!! Make yourself at home and have fun while you’re here - it’s so nice to meet you!!!
Cher :)

Beautiful song...although I think my girls would roll their eyes at me if I tried to get them to listen to it. (ah the joys of teens!)
It's nice to "meet" your talented family.
Cher,
What a beautiful voice you have!!:) And your little Ben how cute. I just loved the song. I would enjoy listening to the CD for myself.:):)
I'm going to go party and check out your party favors. Oh, and your CD too!!
Blessings to YOU and Your Beautiful Family!

WOW- what a hostess! If there was an award for best planned party- I'd vote you in! Nice meeting you and thanks for the time and energy you put in to making your party fun!!
I agree - this is perhaps the best planned party I've been to, thus far. What a lovely family you have and I can see, by the happy looks on your faces, that you know how truly blessed you really are. I also agree with your Mom - you just had to do Wynken! I'd love to feature your cd on my site.
Absolutely love Wynken. Always listen to your mom!!! This has been one of my all-time favorite poems. I remember my mom quoting it to me when I was little and I used to read it to my little ones -- years ago! Ah, time flies.
Thanks for the special song -- love your site and your music. What a blessing you are!
Happy blog party!

Oh Cher, thanks so much for stopping by 2nd Cup of Coffee! Small world--but then Muncie is the hubbub of the mild, mild Midwest! All US citizens are only like 6 degrees of separation away from Funcie! Love your site-most fun stop yet, AND I went to Eugene Field Elementary school, (which I posted about recently) and cannot believe his name was here in this post. Weird! So glad to have you and am enjoying your gifts. We must "meet" again in Bloggyland.
Hi Cher,
Thanks for visiting my party. What a cute party you guys are having.
Partying along at Goodies for Mom.
Oh, one more thing--I'm curious about your connection to Oneighty--will you email me at lindacrowatcomcast.net and tell me who that is, if she is in Muncie?
Thanks for stopping by and saying hi!
That's great you both can work from home. :)
Hey, can I link back to your pie recipe for my pie contest?
Thanks for stopping by! Who wouldn't love that 2 night stay in Italy. LOL - We could all use that. Happy party hopping.
oh my goodness! fun party! thanks for stopping my mine!
Thanks for stopping! I love your site and your music. Great job. You have such a lovely voice.
I am just starting to write and would love your advice on when to get a critique and how to find someone you trust to critique your work. My first children's just took a quirky turn after a long shower and now I have to rewrite it! - but I think it will be better when done if I do. Gotta love the creative process. These little characters just love to invade at the most inopportune times.
Your whole family sounds so creative! I'll be sure to stop back by.
Have a great week!
It's a good thing you listened to your mother. Winken is a beautiful song!

Ditto on all the great comments on your voices and singing!
