hang10tiki I should share the secret to these cookies. They are Toll House in a tub. Corn oil on a cookie sheet. Scoop them out of the bucket. Bake on one side for 14 minutes then flip and cook for 5 more. They are so good hot out of the oven. Save the left overs in a plastic bag to keep them crunchy.

LoriLovesTiki I counted the unique mugs on my Gallery page and that came to 66. I also made 40 Sacramento Crawl mugs and 30 Zombie Torch mugs with flames and 8 as regular mugs. I did finish off a bunch of things that had dried but I haven't sold them I've been using them for swaps and contests. So all total sold and not sold around 200 items.

Progress Report on Wish List #3:

Top shelf of the kiln.

It was so cold but I scrubbed each head inside and out. Then I rinsed them. They went on clean trays and into the house.

Bottom shelf of the kiln.

First out was Beach-bum Bob. He didn't stick to the towel and he developed a few more cracks. I'll have fun experimenting with glazes and patches to semi-fix him.

I used these two sponges to scrub the dust off. The rise water stayed clear so I could tell I was doing a good job.

When I lifted Bela Lugosi out of the kiln his arm came off. I have these two products to put it back on. These can be used to attach tikis to bowls. I hope it works well for an arm.

See these little places where the clay had pockets for air. That's all it took to pop off the arm.

All scrubbed and taken into the house.

Back to work. Cheers, Wendy
