It’s been a long time since I blogged some of my pottery – I just haven’t had the time to get into the studio lately! I am definitely going to change that in the new year, because nothing compares to drinking from handmade pottery. This…

Casper was a lab-hound mix that a friend of mine adopted about 12 years ago. I still remember the day he brought him home–Casper was a big, goofy puppy, all limbs. He was a gentle and sweet-natured dog all his life. When he finally had to…
