Fun night at the Lillstreet Holiday Opening tonight. So many fun people to chat with.
Many of them doing some holiday shopping. Some getting gifts for others…
many getting gifts for themselves!!!

Kickin’ off the Lillstreet Holiday Open House with plenty of wheelthrown stamped & soda-fired ornaments!

Caught a moment of bright light shining through the window and landing on my mugs… obviously not today as it was gray & snow-stormy all day!

After a day with too much turkey & “never-enough” pie…
it felt great to be back on my bike this morning to work off some of the “damage” I did yesterday. Yummy… but still.

With three desserts on the holiday table, we did a pretty good job of polishing them off. Just a small slice of yumminess for tomorrow!

Cloudy & cold with a brisk breeze off the Lake. Not much of a sunrise but for an instant when it peeked through the clouds. Thankful that the morning miles allow me to eat another piece of pie today… but not thankful for the flat tire I had along the way!
