You love yarn. Yarn is probably on your wish list (doesn’t the Yarn Harlot tell non-yarnies that even though we all seem to have enough yarn, yarn is always a good gift?). Or maybe you’re shopping for that yarn lover in your life…? Maybe your yarn lover even sent you …

Originally posted on June 16, 2005; I thought I’d repost this, since moving one more time is hopefully on the horizon. No moss on this rolling stone Lately, I’ve been thinking about a family friend who has helped me move on numerous occasions. That got me thinking… exactly how many …
(Crossposted from my work blog) Last week was a soapy blur of soap making and wrapping, and scrambling for paperwork, scanning, signing, etc. (I don’t remember, when I bought this house I live in now, 20 years ago, that the process was as time consuming as this house we’re trying …
Last week was a soapy blur of soap making and wrapping, and scrambling for paperwork, scanning, signing, etc. (I don’t remember, when I bought this house I live in now, 20 years ago, that the process was as time consuming as this house we’re trying to buy now). I finally …
Whoooo is always looking for cute owl things? Whooooo do you know that collects owls? Whoooo — ok, I can’t keep doing that with a straight face. Owls. From the majestic photos of owls in flight to the cutesy owls on the latest WOOT t-shirt… we either love them, or …
What are you working on this week? This week I’m all about prepping for GLAM (Sunday, December 7th!) This week in ceramics I fired the kiln for the first time since September. I wanted to hug my kiln and tell it that I had not forsaken her, I’ve just been …
I wouldn’t necessarily call this book my favorite book – after all, how many times have I reread Alas, Babylon and Watership Down? But The Artist’s Way by Julia Cameron did change my life. The year was… hmm. I don’t even remember the year. Maybe 1996? 1997? The Reader’s Digest …
I was just telling a friend on the phone yesterday that I don’t remember, when buying a house 20 years ago, it being quite this time consuming. As such, I don’t really have a lot to show for this last week, work-wise! I finished a pattern I’ve had in my …
Maybe you work with that person. Maybe you live with that person. You definitely know that person. That quirky, offbeat, fun person who is sometimes hard to buy for… but sometimes really easy to buy for, when you see that Perfect Thing. Here are five quirky and unique HaldeCraft mugs that …
This week….! In ceramics… I need to paint and glaze so I can fire the kiln soon (I was hoping to get these skull mugs painted and glazed over the weekend but the detail work is taking longer than I expected). And I need to take stock of all my …

I’m so excited to announce I was accepted into GLAM again this year! This will be my fourth time, and it just keeps getting better and better. Here’s a shot from my booth last year – … can you see the booth through all the people?! I always have a …
For someone so busy I sure do feel like I haven’t gotten much done this week! In ceramics, I’ve been glazing as I can; some mugs for an upcoming show, and also continuing with the series of glazed tiles I’ve been working on for color charts. In soap, I’ve been …

Continued from yesterday! So the first thing I did when Tim starting worrying over the bank dragging their heels was to download the Zillow app for my phone. I’d been lurking on the website for a couple years, because I get curious when I’m out walking the dog and see …
Last week we decided to tell our friends, whose house we’ve been wanting to buy since April, that we’re glad they had other interested people lined up behind us because we’re going to have to step away from it. It’s a beautiful place; picturesque; country enough to be left alone …
