And just like that. . .

It feels like winter is here. We've put out the Christmas lights early because of an event that we're hosting this week, and I brought in a bunch of the hardier herbs, because even they will be challenged once it's below 28F or so.

Tuscan white beans, rustic bread, my garlic keeper and rescued sprigs of rosemary from the garden. We had a dusting of snow today. That was unexpected. But as I said to a friend, the first snow is magic. . .the last, not-so-much.

 My throwing has been way off here lately. I once again threatened to get rid of the wheel and all of its attendant tools. But I reviewed a Bill Van Guilder class that I had purchased (for the 4th time), and threw a tall pot today with almost 4 pounds of clay. I've destroyed the first three, but this one is not an embarrassment. Maybe for me, the fourth time's the charm. Images soon!
