(teapot by Gary Rith)
You could say 'wow Gary crumb-bum day, eh?' but hey, there are upsides on this sickie day:
a) kiln parts arrived, see if I can fix the darn thing Tuesday
b) it probably won't snow forever, and 5 degrees outside is warmer than zero
c) we live in a time when you can buy ibuprofen, and take it anytime you want
AND
d) I am a doggone winner! I won a spot in the teapot show I have told you about, at Chiaroscuro Gallery in Chicago. This is a BIG FORKING deal, and the third time I have entered. This rather cool red doggy teapot is the winner, I am sooooooooo excited!

I'm am sooo thrilled over the news of your teapot, especially since, I'd spent a good bit of time just loving it with my eyeballs! It's wonderful, Gary! Congratulations!!!! Believe I've used up my quota of exclamatiion marks for the day, so now I'll shut up.
What sort of red glaze are you using? It really looks rich and saturated! Care to share a recipe?
That's wonderful news! I love the shape of the teapot - and the glaze is really beautiful.
Hope you feel better tomorrow.
Congratulations, Gary! And get well, better sooner than later! As you said, it just won't snow forever! :-)
