While making a lot of bowls… we also had to have another sweet treat in class last night!!!
These ones were extra YUMMY!!!

Looks like Matthew might be having a great gummy snack in one of my sweet little stamped bowls! And I should know… I LOVE a good gummy bear! Too addictive!!! Thanks for the photo Matthew.

Heading into another new pottery class for Intermediate Wheelthrowing tonight. And a new class means new OREOs, right? Let’s see if this class is as daring as my Beginning students were last week. And if their “reviews” are the same!!!

I have some amazing friends & followers! Another sweet visit from Diane & Jim who brought me these amazing cookies & brownie from their Farmers Market! Each one a literal work of art. Textured, painted & gold-dusted. Amazing!!! And that brownie?… might be one of the best ever!!! …. burp!

Thank you thank you, thank you…

Another surprise art fair treat this morning!!! Our amazing mosaic artist Kristin just “somehow knew” that I might be all over these!!! A wonderful surprise… a sweet treat from a real Sweetie! Thanks Kristin!!!

So tonight was the start of the new session of pottery classes at Lillstreet. And “someone” may have found all three new flavors of OREOs to share with his students!!! Perhaps…. burp.

So I’ve been working in the studio all morning throwing some last-minute pieces for next weekend’s soda kiln. I ran into my friend & studio neighbor Susan in the hallway… both of us lamenting about how it seems like the two of us are always here in the studio. I made some flippant comment that I had just eaten half a bag of gummy bears for lunch!!! Then she asked “Do you like pastries?”… of course I said yes… like, am I breathing??? I scored two amazing snacks… thanks for sharing Susan!!!

Not only does my pal Cory McCrory make really cool pottery… she’s also a great baker!
And I scored a freshly-baked loaf of sourdough bread yesterday at our “collab hand-off”!!!
So yummy!

After a mile open-water swim, a twenty-five mile bike ride & a six mile run… it’s always great to see the Finish Line. And even “greater” to see a food truck in the Finish Festival area with NACHOS!!!

No shame in my game… I’ve earned ’em!!!

While my potluck contribution was a homemade Chocolate Chip Tollhouse Pie!
A longtime family favorite recipe… and now my students favorite too!
Homemade pie on a handmade plate!!! Yummy!!!
