Record Lows….Big Events…Slowing Economy…..Potting Up…..& Kiln Gnomes

Kiln unload yesterday morning Happy Tuesday! I hope you are doing well. It's 5:27 a.m. and I'm mostly awake - which is a stark contrast to last week when I could barely pull myself out of bed due to pure exhaustion. I would probably still be sleeping this morning if it weren't for all the …

Seed Starting….Clean-Up’s…Killing Snakes….Making Wishes….

Happy Wednesday night my friends! I hope all is well with you and yours! We've had a wild ride with the weather the last several days, today is the topper! Lots of snow, but not sticking around much, it seems to come and go, the temps are hanging around the mid to upper 30's. I …

The Things & Moving Your Chair…..

Happy Saturday night. I hope all is well in your part of the world! Been a busy last couple of weeks - nothing hugely earth shattering, just the usual things - work, family, clay - repeat! I've been itching to get out into the milk house to get things cleaned up and moving along to …

New Year….Spring Market….Clay Day & New Shop!!

I'm happy to report that this school year is better than last, thank goodness! This school year hasn't been completely without angst, but it is more manageable and easier than last-tis the nature of the beast, each year is different. As things move along, and the staff settles in, it will be easier to navigate …

A Follow Up to Foolish Idiots

Happy Friday my friends - I've had a rough week, not feeling super well, feeling a bit stressed, and a put pushed to the side. I've managed to take a few walks with hubby in the cold - which is a life saver really, without those walks I'd be a puddle of a mess hunched …

Rain….Frost…..Apples….Pumpkins & Clay Bodies

Greetings on this lovely Sunday evening. We are finally getting some Autumn weather - not much mind you, but a bit.

Laments…..Jam…..Near Disasters…Care Givers…Crawling & Pottery

Happy Friday evening! I'm not entirely sure where the last month has gone - oh wait.....yes, that's right - I went back to work! It's almost as though I'm busier now than I was when I had two school aged kids-and I've hardly seen the grands! My 26 year-old (soon to be 27) was just …

Black-and-Blue….Half-Assed…..Grace….Weeds & Sunshine

Happy Saturday my friends. I hope you are doing well. Thankfully summer seems to have arrived in our area - my garden is not doing well at all, but perhaps this warm, sunny shot of weather will give it a boost!? It certainly is looking much better than it has, and honestly, I've been neglecting …
