Happy Birthday, Robin!! Some of these things are new, and some got relearned. If you have an indoor/outdoor cat, don’t get too attached. Nature is just out your door, and it is brutal and wild. Bye-bye, Samson, the bitey Bengal boy. Still, we think it is better to let a cat be a cat instead […]
Thank You
Thank you to all who expressed sympathy about Samson. Our neighbor found his body, and we buried him on the hillside above the house. He died from a freak accident, and you really do not want to know the details. Neither do we, but too bad, now we do. I called the woman who owns […]

Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas, dear blog readers. I will be silent for awhile. Nothing to worry about – I’ll be back, and hope you will join me. Meanwhile, have a lovely week of holidays! P.S. I have been and will continue to busy through December 24. See?
Things I Learned in November
The fall time change is so much easier than the spring one, but it still makes me tired to have my internal chronometer jerked around. There are more ways to measure the success of a show than by the $ I earn. Reconnecting with old friends, meeting other artisans, talking to people who might become […]
Thankful
Fall Fun
Say what? “Fall fun”. . . don’t you have work to do? Yes. I do. There is another show coming this weekend. I’ll tell you about it tomorrow.
