Little Talks... in little notebooks

I picked up these fun little notebooks from Target the other day to try something new.

My goal is to try to keep a journal of the foods that I eat, my weight, and whatever other little tidbits I end up jotting down.  I think if I start to keep track of these things, I can really look back and see what I'm doing and what I can improve upon.  I'm sure little sketches of pottery ideas will end up in there too!

Speaking of pottery, I got this cute little bowl out of the kiln room the other day, and I must say, I'm pleased with it!  I think I would like to attempt a set for our house, and this celedon green is exactly what I want to use.  

Also, I got this cool little tip from Ceramics Daily.  Too often do I think something is a great idea and then immediately forget about it! This guy is doing some details on the bottom of the teapot lid to add some beauty to something so functional.  I love it!  There's nothing saying that something can't be functional and beautiful  right?
