Last night was our friend Mariana’s photography opening at Tasty Buddha; they do a rotating artist (I think on a quarterly basis) and while of course the artist makes money, some proceeds also go to a different charity every year. Their charity this year is the Pace Center for Girls, and they said last night that this [...]
If you’re an old-school Gainesvillian, you are now cursing me. Hee hee hee. You should see the look on Tim’s face when I bust that tune out… it’s total revenge for every time he makes that damn phone noise. Here’s my lunch from the Faire; “ye old fruit and cheese plate” coupled with an orange [...]

Yesterday was a throwback to the start of the year; hanging out with good friends and eating great food. Lynn came up from “down South” (and I say it like it’s a million miles away but it’s like, an hour) and helped me to wrap soap (a day off for her, and a big help [...]
Friday’s kiln firing. All four of those messily wrapped mugs will show up for sale soon. One thing I noticed yesterday is that by cleaning greenware every Saturday, but only loading the kiln up to fire every other Saturday, it doesn’t take as long to get work done!

I’ve gone ahead and added the soap already to my online shop with [...]

Yesterday was Tim’s birthday, and I am here to tell you that he ate well! We all went to Satchel’s for lunch (getting there before him to get a table and place an order for our “invisible friend”) and although Tim had to rush back to work, the rest of us walked through Lighting Salvage [...]
Good times, y’all. Yesterday continued the trend of the year so far; eating great food and spending quality time with people I love. We met up for lunch at Chopstix (where they’ve redone the sushi bar and y’all, SWANK!) and then went off to walk around the part of Payne’s Prairie with the 50-foot observation [...]
On the 31st we met for lunch at the cafe inside Books, Inc – one of the last three independently owned bookstores in town. They’re closing, and we wanted to see it one last time. This is the Science Fiction and Fantasy room, where I have bought many a book and spent many an hour [...]
