Between moving and midterms I’ve been neglecting my poor blargh.  So sad.  Well it’s all over now, and I have some pottery to show off (huzzah!).

First, the lopsided bowl from this post was finished several weeks ago:

Next, I made another bowl of similar size to match (although in this one I left off the peach glaze):

Here Budgie Smuggler examines a recently completed sculpture of Jammie Dodgers:

Then I made an incredibly ugly mug - I will say in its defense that it’s technically the best mug I’ve made so far, and I use it for my morning tea every day, despite its aesthetic defects:

Finally, a cat grass planter for the girls:

Incidentally, even though all of these photos were taken on different days, that’s the same cat in each one.  Budgie is the official pottery model of Giroofasaurus-Vexed.

Okay, extravaganza might be too strong a word for a ‘cosmic bowling’ party with a bunch of 6 year old kids, but whatever.  The carpet, at least, was worthy of exclamation:

Sophie was in her bowling finery

The whole affair was a little like this

except with the high-pitched squealing that only children can emit.

There were hotdogs for the kids, and of course cake.  The Hannah Montana cake was horrifyingly purple, a colour which would not come off the children’s faces afterward with any amount of soapy scrubbing.  It did, however, come with a matching headset, which Sophie wore around for most of the rest of the day.

Sophie wasn’t sure why we laughed so hard when she showed us her bandaged finger:

Hilarity, predictably enough, ensues.
