Shibori!

Not so sure I like the 'new' Blogger. For an older technically challenged person like myself it ain't fun! Tomorrow I go back to making pottery. Just having a fun interlude trying all the Shibori dyeing techniques. I have a couple of silk painting with salt that aren't steamed yet. Very excited about them!
Making pots for a wood firing that should have already happened.....
Today we ate our first tomatoes!! Good old greenhouse. It was worth getting up at 4 am for a month to stoke the stove. Too bad the weather has stopped cooperating. About 6 degrees Celsius colder than normal. Hasn't seemed to stop the bears from waking up!!!

Call This a Cold Snap??

A friend of mine sent me this from North Pole, Alaska this evening. It was the 10 am reading. Celsius or Fahrenheit, who cares? Hope it warms up for them soon. It makes our -30 seem like a heat wave.
