Look who just popped onto my tree!!! Santa couldn’t deliver his gifts of toilet paper & hand sanitizer via ZOOM, so he put on his best mask an just stopped by with proper social distancing!! Celebrating the season as best we can… with a wonderful handmade ornament by my friend Tiffany!

If you would like one of your own, she’s busily making more like a good Elf should… and you can connect with her through Instagram – @tiff_in_quarantine

Anyone looking for a little mid-afternoon musical holiday diversion?!
Any “HAMILTON” fans out there… if so, you’ll LOVE this one!!!
Brilliantly written. Perfectly performed.

Now I really want to see the entire show “Hamilton-ized.”
Maybe some of the “Island of Misfit Toys” can become the Schuyler Sisters??? Hermey as Thomas Jefferson… or even better, the Abominable Snowman as Aaron Burr?… or would that be Aaron BRRR…!!!

Here we go… first by kicking off my TWELVE DAYS OF CHRISTMAS POTTERY SALE with a little musical interlude.

Just getting ready for a little holiday fun… and the perfect chance for you to get some holiday gift sopping done!!!

A little “cement graffiti” as seen this morning along the lakefront carved into one of the cement boulders of the retaining walls.

On a bright sunny day, it’s fun to find colorful rainbows bouncing around on my pottery! Still on display for my ongoing HOLIDAY HOME SHOW… with sun beautifully refracting with small prism snowflakes on the holiday garlands! ‘Tis the season for small surprises…

TOO FUNNY! I love this illustration… and will honestly admit that I might possibly still be at the very bottom starting point of the hierarchy! Don’t get me wrong, I do love a good pun, a good practical joke & a good slapstick shtick!!! But I’ve been told MANY times by my Summer Campers that I have too many “Dad jokes”… and I’m totally okay with that!!!

While not quite sugar plums, but it’s never too early to have visions of Christmas yummies dancing in my head, right?

While we seem to have been spared of the prediction of the Election Day Asteroid… a week later, it is good to know that there were certain precautions put in place!!! Whew… crisis averted!

So during the Covid shutdown, I started my “quarantine collection” of beach glass. While the Lakefront Bike Trail was closed, I was “forced” to bike & explore some of the beaches north of me. Found some beach glass… and started a small collection. I came home with a pretty good stash this morning… including one really cool piece of cobalt blue glass!!!
