Some weeks it is hard to narrow down what it is that made me happy as so much in life does. So here are my two favourites for the week.
I got the opportunity to 'play with clay' a week ago and play I did. Such a satisfying thing to do, getting a block of clay and pounding it on the bench to soften it before creating. I had an idea, quite a fishy one at that.
Once my fish were made they had to take a few days to dry naturally. Then I went back to choose colours before they were put into one of Dawns kilns to cook. Once they were done cooking at incredibly high temps, I went back to do a black wash over my colours and then put the final glaze, the one that makes them shiny!!
I am so stoked with how they all turned out
and of course some of them
have made it to that
Wall of Whimsy.
Then today TOF and I (who by the way is doing really well) went for a drive to see some friends of ours in the country whose beautiful cat gave birth to 7 adorable kittens a few weeks back.
OMG SOOOOOO CUTE!!!!!!
Why does anything in it's baby state makes you just go all smooshy and silly. I could have quite easily run off with at least 3 or 4 of these adorable bundles of fluff, but with great restraint and that certain look from TOF, photos were enough.
JUST A THOUGHT

"Dust if you must" is being added to my funeral planning file. My niece-the-lawyer has required that every adult have their papers in order. This bit will make her smile (after she *puffs* the dust off the box containing the papers).
Love your fish Sue ... such a clever idea. Those kittens .... OH MY!!! Such bundles of cuteness. Pleased TOF is doing so much better.
Your fish are brilliant Sue, but OMG KITTENS! Nothing will ever be better than kittens. Apart from possibly clay fish *and* kittens?...
