Apologies

Posting is going to be a little sparse for a bit. Denise is back in Wisconsin for a family emergency, and between dealing with the emotional fallout, picking up day-to-day chores (astonishingly, cats don't take care of themselves. Nor do houseplants…), and getting ready for a firing, a fair, and and the deadlines involved in getting Clay Fest ads and map handout done, I won't be having much fun on the internets for a bit. Hoping things will settle down enough that I can live-blog the Corvallis Fall Festival, coming up next weekend.

Meanwhile, keep Denise's Dad in your thoughts and prayer. Also, before I go, here's a partial set of dishes going into the next firing, bound to be a wedding present in Ireland.

How cool is that? I can hardly bear it.
