I completely adored this book when I was a wee babe:
“What is REAL?” asked the Rabbit one day, when they were lying side by side near the nursery fender, before Nana came to tidy the room. “Does it mean having things that buzz inside you and a stick-out handle?”

I took individual pictures of everything as I finished, but I don’t like em very much. It’s all slowly coming [...]

Instead I sit here with my Snickers [...]
I don’t know how I got so lucky. This is what I do all day, I make ceramic cake. What??
I am pretty happy with this one, much happier than I was with the other one.. but I’m pretty pissed at myself because I loaded up a kiln with everything I’ve made so far this semester, [...]
