Last firing of the year came out on Friday, and everything was generally excellent. Lovely, consistent reduction, just a little swipe of oxidation down the bottom center. Think we may need to plug some cracks in the car base–maybe silica sand? A few things cracked--a baking dish, a covered casserole--not surprising, given how rushed I was. I also managed to break a casserole myself, trying to tap loose a stuck lid. sigh. Took the other stuck-lid casserole home, warmed it up in a 200° oven and then ran an ice cube around the lid until it shrank and popped free on its own. Will definitely have to keep that trick in my repertoire. Some pics...




And yes, that is the same turkey from my Inktober sketchbook on the platter.

The turkey looks so judgemental! (this is true to the nature of all wild turkeys...)

So true!
