01/24/2006: "paint me"

my friend danielle and i went to a "paint your own pottery" place on saturday evening. andy and i used to go to one in boulder years ago. you choose a piece of bisque pottery, paint it with all kinds of colored glazes and then they fire it and you come back and pick up a finished piece. such fun! danielle and i spent several hours chatting, drinking coffee and painting. i made a vase and a little sauce dish, which i think i will use for something in my sewing room. the vase is greener than the picture shows - it is hard to photograph shiny things. i picked up everything today and valiantly resisted peeking at danielle's finished piece before i dropped it off at her house.

When I looked in the bag and saw it was all wrapped up, I wondered if you were disappointed in not seeing it. You might just have to come over to see it because I don't know when I'll be able to get a picture taken or anything....

Speaking of pictures...has it been sunny enough yet for you to take a picture of your troll? Curious to see him.
