SARAH

I want to share my dog Sarah with you. She's the best! Smart, very loving, very loyal; the only thing is, she does not like other dogs. A dog park is being built at one of our local parks and should be open soon. I wonder how she will behave there -- I'll let you know.

Here are pictures of Sarah BEFORE and AFTER her last haircut a few days ago. I always feel like there's a different dog coming home after her afternoon at the groomers.

Apple Bakers

Here's what I made with a half bag of clay Saturday and trimmed them on Sunday -- Apple Bakers. I first saw them while visiting friends and potteries on the East Coast. They are fun to make and great to use in the oven or microwave. A cored or sliced apple with sugar and cinnamon, then maybe vanilla ice cream? These are almost dry and will be ready to load in the kiln tomorrow.

We woke up to rain this morning! What a treat. My dogs love to run outside and get wet, then happily look for me to towel them off. Here's a photo of them -- Sarah and Geena.
