the good, the bad, and what was i thinking?






















still waiting on the final firing for the sculptures...some cups now up on flickr and in the etsy shop...see previous post.
it's very hot out. so hot that i gave in and cut off four years worth of dreadlocks.
otis is very sad he has nothing to land on anymore and i think the new, spiky do scares him a little.

since i had a small vacation i have been spinning wool and knitting and dreaming of snow. this happens every summer. the more hot days in a row the more chunky my yarn becomes.


i've also been renewing my friendship with yerba mate tea.
there are various sites around the net that will make some mighty large claims concerning this plant and some more conservative.
i have to be honest with you though: i mix it with organic cinnamon chips and i find it just plain tasty.
while i do believe there are numerous health benefits to this plant i will leave you to find your own opinions.
