Yesterday we went to open studio. I threw four more pitchers and kept three
of them. The two from Thursday weren’t quite ready to trim, so I wrapped
everything up well and crossing fingers they’ll be okay for Thursday. I
also made two roulettes: little handheld wheels for impressing texture. One
is an organic line, and the other is a leafy vine pattern.
After clay we went to the waterfront for Katie snacks, then home for lunch.
P had some sfiha from Babylon, and I seem to be doing okay with modified
rice+veg, using thyme instead of Indian spices.
Easy crossword, then I set last week’s squashes to bake and suited up to
check on the garden. I’m going to need new boots soon as the rubber is
starting to go bad. There are two tromboncino headed for winter squash,
though one of them might not make it; the seed/blossom end has collapsed. I
tied both of them up to guard against storms taking them out. I picked five
red Odessa peppers, a few straggling beans, and a huge pile of basil.
P used the delicata in a pasta dish, and I put the lackluster “long pie”
pumpkin away in the fridge. I expected better, but it was light for its
size. Washed and picked over all the basil, and P packed purée into ice
cube trays to freeze.
Dinner, then snuggled with P and a pottery book, and bed.
