recent ceramics
We did a Raku firing Saturday. I really like some of my pieces. The masks came out very well. The little footed bowl is a lovely color. There are more photos, but I'll save those for another time.
We got a bit of snow this AM. It melted on the sidewalk, but has left a nice dusting of the white stuff on my deck. I sprinkled out a pit of food on the deck itself, for the Juncos and other ground-feeding birds. Unfortunately, but not unexpectedly, the squirrels came by first and pretty much vacuumed up all the seed.
I don't envy the folks in the Midwest where they really got hit with a storm. A white Christmas is something to be enjoyed. A storm with wind, icy roads and piles of snow is NOT what any of us want. Well, actually the kids probably want something like that. I remember how we used to hope for school closings.
It's so nice being retired and able to just sit inside and enjoy snow, without having to go anywhere! I do have a class to teach this afternoon, but the roads are fine.
I have to get my Christmas cards out this week. I'm really behind this year. At least I have the cards and the Xmas letters. All that I need to do is put on addresses and stamps.
Guess I'd better get busy!

little footed bowl is so great - may try to "copy" and colors on masks also great.
