New Colours

These are some of the new colours I am working with in the kiln at home, tangerine, lemon and a soft turquoise.  I like the broadened range of options and will be continuing to experiment.

I will be making more wine tumblers, mugs and bowls in these colours for the Spring sales.

Goat Milk Cheese Making workshop at Aurora Farms

In my never ending drive to make our life more self sufficient and less reliant on a "paycheque" I have been thinking about goat's and how to have goats for the last couple of years.  Yesterday, I took the opportunity to go to a nearby farm to learn about goat milk cheese making.  Yes, that's me at  the top milking my first goat.  It was great, I need a lot of practice, and I hope to get it.  We made chevre, mozzarella, ricotta, feta cheese and yogurt.  It was great, thanks to Louise May and the goats of course, who I find endlessly interesting.
