More is MORE! Like this cute little cup that one of my students made awhile back… but finally glazed it!!! Sara went a little crazy when she was introduced to “stamping” during my Surface Decoration class. The light bulb went off. Her world expanded. And now she’s loving this little cutie! Nicely done Sara… and thanks for finally glazing it!!!

Monday Mum-Day!! One last mum plant hanging in there on my back porch.
The rest have pretty much faded away. But this one is a trooper!!!

I was looking forward to my first sunrise bike ride after the time change… an hour “earlier” giving me a little extra time to play this morning! Unfortunately… the clouds weren’t on my side. Just a LOT of clouds covering the entire sky. With just one teeny-tiny sliver of sun at the very end… kinda!

So I “might have” treated myself to a little “treat” for Halloween! My favorite frozen custard place LICKITY SPLIT makes pumpkin frozen custard… and then blends in a whole slice of pumpkin pie! Only for a limited time… so I “had to” stock up before the flavor disappears!

Looks like the Fall colors are spot-on this weekend!!!
So beautiful… and hoping the leaves hang-on for awhile longer!!!

Celebrating another “Floral Friday” with a collection of bright blooms living their best life in one of my stamped & soda-fired vases. A fun addition to a shelf of rusty gears on my back porch!

Another glorious morning along the lake. Gusty winds & crashing waves added to the morning drama. Crazy cool colors in the clouds that evolved as the sun worked its way out for a pretty preview!

One quick ride while the weather is still BEAUTIFUL. Blue skies today… with a prediction of clouds & rain moving in for the next couple days. Always admiring this old totem pole along the lakefront bike trail at Addison.

So here’s the start of my morning. The sunrise is so late now that the first half of my ride is in complete darkness. Just me with my headlight & taillight!!! I might be one of the few people actually looking forward to this weekend’s time change… as it gives me more sunrise sooner!!!

Lots of clouds, lots of drama… just how I like it.
Another stunning sunrise with plenty of clouds in all the right places!
