A little early morning stamping… larger vases getting patterned & textured. So now they need some trimming & colored flashing slip accents before they start to dry!

A little early morning stamping… larger vases getting patterned & textured. So now they need some trimming & colored flashing slip accents before they start to dry!




Colorful clouds graced the skies this morning… gently blowing through the City. Warmer temps are headed our way. Looks like beautiful weather for today & through the weekend. Methinks this might be our favorite “Indian Summer” weekend?
Well THAT doesn’t sound too “politically correct” these days?… is there a new phrase for this gorgeous weather weekend that I haven’t heard of yet??? Or is this one still okay to use?















Beautiful, but the leaves are dropping fast!
Hopefully they can hang on at least for one more beautiful weekend?!

No chance for a sunrise on this overly cloudy morning, so I did some early-morning stamping instead! No sweat… literally.




After a couple days of cold gray skies, it was so nice to see the sun again today! Just in time to catch some of the fantastic Fall colors still hanging on!

So my friend Pam has a “slightly unhealthy obsession” with Chapstick… and you already know of my “ever-so-slight-addiction”… so imagine my laughter & surprise when our mutual friend Judy gave this to me last night!!! Like an unhealthy love-child of Pam & mine!!! HA!!!

So last night in class there “may have been” another yellow towel situation… it’s been too long!

Just a little early-morning wheelthrowing to kick-start the day!


Looks like another stamped mug is headed off to another happy home… “peace”fully celebrating another Mugshot Monday!

Well, my “Birthday Week” started with a Marathon… and ended with this yummy monstrosity!!! Yummy ice cream & hot fudge at Carl’s Ice Cream with friends!!! It’s been a great week!!!
