Fruit, Fall, Fail and Finally

Fruit

Regular apple on the right and mutant apple on the left.  That apple is large enough for 3 people.  We had several like that.


Fall
I read an article that stated you should not rake the leaves in the fall.  Yay!

Fail

 The following pictures are of my glazing disaster.  Further down this selection of pictures you will see what I was aiming for.  This is not it.





 A tiny bit of the correct color is visible on the rim of this bowl below.
 



Wall plaque - cracked and warped.  Grrrrr.




I think I will fill this one to the brim.  I think there is some chilling in the fridge.


 The bowl on the right is the color this stuff should be.
 



 This bowl below shows some hint of the blue. Not nearly enough though.







Christmas tree decorations for my away family's stockings.  It looks like the star is goosing the polar bear.  
They are not to be hung on the tree like that.




Finally

  This is the new paint on our house - we are getting close to finishing but it's also getting close to winter. 
We need to move along.

Note to self - start nagging The Husband.




The two dots on the garage door?  That's  my car headlights.

The polar bear says "Yowch! Don't I have enough problems already with global warming and everything?"

Maybe I'm nuts but I love your mistakes. But seriously, I am in-love with that blue bowl. Where on your site is your on-line shop link?
