Train making me uncomfortable this morning.

My first thrown pot in over three years. 1.5 pounds. I expected to have to learn to center again, but it just happened. Overall, my hand remembered what to do, I was just fuzzy on the specifics of things I kept changing up... sponge placement, knuckle lift, finger lift, etc Nice to be throwing again.

Garage much more organized, kilns are uncrated and most importantly, my wheel area is accessible and ready to throw pots this afternoon. Right after I recover.

Goya plantain chips are really good. Very light salt (no-salt is an option), taste and mouth-feel is a lot like a medium-thickness potato chip. Very crispy, not greasy like thin chips.

Knitting dish cloths for my mom's 70th birthday, to go with her sunflower-themed kitchen. Also, a warm-up for more complicated knitting since I've been out of practice for quite awhile.

This bucket is my life now, so long as the rain keeps up. I briefly considered sleeping in the attic to be closer.
