Thoughts in the Middle of Winter
Sometimes it’s hard to know what to say. So instead of making up things, I’ve been silent. Silence can be a good thing, I think, and it is characteristic of the middle of winter.
I have been working on pieces and on my life. Also good. Take a look at one of the former as it is evolving.
The next step will be to bisque fire the piece. Then comes the glazing. I have an idea what I want to do. Now I wait until the time is right. A good thing to do.
Wordless Wednesday
End of January
It’s the last day of the first month in the year 2012. Temperatures have risen to nearly 60 degrees F; birds are singing Spring songs; snowdrops have emerged, as have other bulbs.
And our dogs have fleas. This is winter?
Red Sky at Night: A My Town Monday Post
One day last week, we had one of those picture perfect sunsets, the kind about which poets and artists dream. Take a look at what I saw in my town:
As always, please feel free to leave me a comment, or a stone (o), to let me know you’ve stopped by. And, if you are so inclined, wander over to My Town Monday, and see what others have to say about the places they call home.
At the End of the Calendar Year…
This has been quite a year—another one. We’ve had our share of challenges, and have, I hope, grown because of, as well as in spite of them. 2011 was the year we continued to learn about patience, gratitude, kindness, and love.
These skilled hands wish you and yours a new year filled with love and light, peace and joy, art and music.
With Gratitude
“There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.”
~~Albert Einstein
With gratitude for your support for the past 22 years. We wish you a life filled with miracles.

Simple Gifts for a Sunday Morning
An Ornamental Mostly Wordless Wednesday Post
We will celebrate our first Candlelight Walk on Thursday, December 1, from 5-9pm. Stroll through this beautiful historic Village, listen to carolers, enjoy light refreshments, see the lights and see what we have to offer. Explore Peninsula!
What Color Was Your Friday?
In the Village of Peninsula, population 602, you can have whatever color Friday you’d like. We are small businesses—micro businesses actually—and when you support us, you support your neighbors and friends.
Here, we make things, one at a time, by hand. Being part of a continuum of craftspeople and artists, doing things like they’ve been done for centuries, incorporating the tools we have today, is an honor. We make things from our hearts, through our hands, and if all works out, something amazing happens.
Yesterday, I asked people what color their Friday was. Seems we had a rainbow in here. Just like I thought.
