Kiln load of stuff meant for bisque firing (800 ℃) accidentally got fired at cone 6 (1240℃) 😭😭😭 Thankfully no complicated pieces were in this batch. #artstr #pottery #ceramics #claystr Other news, I've discovered cryptic crosswords and I'm obsessed! If anyone does minute cryptics please let's compete 😚😚

Rich in garlic🧄 I have abot 80 garlics, I am a garlic millionaire!!!!

New purple came out great 😎 #pottery

Scone in the studio 🥰 #foodstr I've gotten really into Game of Thrones lately, and I've been listening to the audio books non stop from when I wake up to when I go to sleep. Great fun, but I find myself going to bed well past midnight which is not good 😬 In other news, some horrible insect has cut down my tomato seedlings. It's probably a grub in the ground, I shall have to go digging for it. All my basil seedlings have also been eaten, and now I know why planting them directly into the garden does not work. I should make a tiny greenhouse so that I can start my seedlings early next year.

Crow update!! Roberto and Matilda (the crows) have been visiting with a third, slightly smaller (!) crow. Assumed to be their child (probably a teenager, as baby crows don't leave the nest until grown), crow 3 is skittish, and I have been unable to get a picture of it. It's also very loud, and screams all the time, like a chick waiting to be fed. I have thus named it NOISY 🥳 #crowstr

Sensei bought real clotted cream but forgot where it's from so now we have a very nice but very limited opportunity to eat scones. The cherry one actually tastes like cherries! #foodstr

I just broke the prototype of my first mug design 😔 devastated 😔

Kiln stack 💁 I've been helping my friend, doing interpretation for a client and other language related tasks, so I pretty much have a fourth job now 🤦 One of the trees next to the studio had a big branch that was almost torn off, and Sensei complained that it was ugly so I climbed up to saw it off. It was the first time I've climbed a tree in ages. All my strength went into trying not to fall out, and my legs were like jelly when I got down. How do children climb with such ease? When did we stop climbing trees? Top tip for anyone inspired to go and climb a tree: only grab/stand on branches that are thicker than your wrist, and never climb after it rains. 🌧
