one of my new year’s resolutions is to eat lunch regularly. my new studio is very conducive for this, as i’ve set up a “dining area.” in the old days, i would skip lunch altogether or eat it at my work table, glaze dripping down my arm, and simultaneously eat while continuing to work. BAD MANNERS. i now look forward to my actual lunch break and having a civilized lunch . . . bon appétit !
when my mom + dad eat their dinner, i’m sent OUT of the ROOM. hey, whatever happened to FAMILY DINNERS ?! so rude. anyway . . . when they are FINALLY done, i get to come join them and my mom has usually saved me her last bite of food. sometimes (when they eat dinner on the couch) i stand on the stairs to spy on them so i can see when they finally put down their forks or chop sticks (they can’t see me). and THAT is my cue to charge the table.
today i had my first MAGAZINE interview! i’m not sure if i’m allowed to say which magazine, in case it somehow falls through, so i think i should wait to tell you which one it is after the ink is dry. the girl at the magazine was really nice and she asked me and my mom lots of questions. cross your paws that it goes to print . . .
one of my favorite times of the day is BREAKFAST (the other is dinner). i will often dine with one of my friends. today i had breakfast with loo loo, and i even let her eat out of MY bowl . . . b u r p .
my mom and i were featured in the february 2013 issue of MARTHA STEWART LIVING. we posed for 2 hours straight ! i think in this picture i was dreaming about the big steak my mom promised me after the photo shoot. it was totally worth it.
wilma and i are EXTREMELY honored to have gotten this great spread in the february 2013 issue of MARTHA STEWART LIVING magazine. everyone there was so amazing to work with.

july 1999
chamonix mont-blanc, france
i love the mountains when they are covered with snow, but i love them equally when they are not. i spent a bit of time in switzerland years ago and we would go on ski trips, but also to visit the mountains when they were bare and beautiful. chamonix mont-blanc was stunning both ways.
at least it is in my SHOP ! even though we should try to practice love every day (giving it, showing it, and accepting it), it’s nice to have a special day when you can really stop and focus on it. maybe even give someone an extra token of love so they can have a reminder of it always. there is a lot of love going on in my shop right now . . .
i have a lot of new bowls in the store. even though it is the dead of winter, i can still see some soft spring colors just around the corner . . .
this most amazing little beach is on the way to my studio (and less than 5 minutes from my home). i try to stop here many times a week so that wilma and i can collect our thoughts, soak up some inspiration, and run along the shore. it’s the perfect precursor to a day at the studio, and such a vital part of our routine.
