Okay… one last piece… after all it is still NATIONAL PI… err, PIE DAY for another half hour!!!
And food always tastes better on handmade pottery.

Well, it’s NATIONAL PIe DAY… originally for the math-nerds what with the 3.141592 and all?! I’m awfully glad it has been expanded to PIE… with an E!!! I’m a tried & true Cherry pie fan!!! But when a little Triple Berry shows up in the mix… how is one to choose??? And why should I?… after all, today is a National Holiday!!!

This is our final week of classes for the Winter session at Lillstreet… and we like to celebrate with a group potluck. And if you bake a double batch of brownies… you can bring them to both Monday & Tuesday night classes.

Yes… voice of experience!!!

My friend Kristen was at some random “soup contest” over the weekend… and spotted one of my “not-so-basic bowls” right next to a crock pot?! I love seeing my pots living out there in the wild!!! Thanks for sharing Kristen!

This week we tried the latest OREO creation… based on the Marvel comics!

But I have a couple questions… like why would I care about Marvel characters on my cookies? Or why would I want GREY cream in my OREOs?? And more importantly… why would I want them to turn BLUE when I lick them??? Well… apparently I was wrong… and we had a lot of fun with them in all three of my classes!!! I fear that the blue dye is still wearing off…

Okay… so today was a double-whammy of yummy holidays. We started the day with one… and now we’re ending with another one. As today is also NATIONAL CHERRY PIE DAY!!! You know I love a good holiday… and a good pie!!!

Brightened my day with a cheery colorful breakfast plate by my friend Cory Mccrory this morning. Fun textures & colors to kick-off another dreary Friday! Cory will also be the host artist at the Sandwich location of the NORTHERN ILLINOIS POTTERY TOUR… where I will be too! Stop by and see both of us with a bunch of other talented potters the first weekend of June!

And it’s another fun Friday… as it’s also NATIONAL MUFFIN DAY!!!

And if I can match a good theme with a national holiday?… even better! So today is a double win “for the gold” as it is also NATIONAL CHOCOLATE MINT DAY!!! My class has no idea what they’re in for tonight…

Celebrating one of everyone’s favorite holidays … even if they don’t know it?!

Today is NATIONAL PIZZA DAY!!!
And I just had to celebrate a little before teaching class tonight
with some deep dish gooey cheesy yumminess!
