Out of the frying pan


and into the fire! I love love love seeing how colors change from one firing to the next. It is always unpredictable, just how I like it. All the colors here are a drippy sun valley caramel. Look how the colors change with the third firing! They've gone from dulce la leche to marble mocha. Mmmm...YUMMY!


Tomorrow we're going to head closer to home and try the North Shore Farmer's Market at Sunset Beach Elementary school (across the street from Pipeline). They have quite a few crafters mixed up with the passion fruit and mangoes (and maybe lychee still?) so we'll give it a go.


April started a job as a Nanny today (YAY) but she has the weekends free, so maybe she'll find it in her generous heart (yes, you can read BEGGING from her mother) to still come and help.


Fun time reminiscing with my nine life nephew Ross last night. Business trip to the Islands...I know, it's rough. He hadn't been back to his childhood home in Kailua for years and was more than a little bummed that someone cut down the massive Banyan tree that he had many a happy memory and broken bone from.

He spent the last hour of his visit on a midnight flash photo safari in search of the goony birds that are nesting in our backyard right now - they make noises that Steven King would love - a morph effect of cats, babies and cows combined. Ross looks grown up, but really he's still 12.
