Clay hands

Today is Halloween, so I thought to post something scary~

so here it is... my hands :-p


the other day, I saw my hands and I thought I should show to other people!
I love this kind of pattern. Especially the clay really bring out the cracks in my hand

I know if my mom saw this she would shake her head and say " are you a girl? or a man?"
Most of the Asia girls that I know really took care of their skin really well and always put lotion on their skin all the time.

For me, I'm kind of proud of it. It's shows I really use my hands ;-)
Also it really looks like my back ground texture that I put on my pots.

I am not sure if you can see the back ground texture that I am talking about ;-p ( I think you might need to click into the picture)
anyway...this is one of my new bowls. And Happy Halloween too :-)

warm apple pie

This weekend Jason and I went back to Santa Cruz for his friend's wedding. It was a really nice beautiful weeding, and this wedding didn't have wedding cake. But instead they have more than 20 different kind of pie!! It was so awesome!!

anyway, after that I just want to make pie... and what a good timing!
Bob's apple trees are all ready for picking!! and we pick and pick and pick


Damn...apple tree produce tons of apples!!! we only been picking for 15-20 min and we got all these box filled with apples


Since Jason and I not a big fruit eater and Bob don't have time to make Juice this year
so all the apple are going to food bank(or something like that)
And with Bob's home grown apples, tonight I made my first apple pie in my life :-)

(those are Jason's chubby fingers)
all I do is get the receipt form internet and my frozen pie crest


after an hour baking and hour cooling, all the work pay off!
It was good! not awesome but pretty good.
I think my next pie I will try to make my own crest.


Yummy!!

That's right, this is Hue's blog!

I just decide to change my template for my blog.
Don't know why, just thought the color is a bit too dark.

anyway, I like it. It might need some time to get used to it, but I think is a good change ;-)

Last weekend, me and Jason spent our Sunday on the road

we need to deliver our pieces to the Bakersfield show

Both of us haven't take road trip for a while, and it was fun :-)

It was so good for long drive :-)

It cool us down and give us some sugar high! that's what we need for the long drive ;-)


After four and half hours, we finally there!! The gallery is sooooooo cool!!!
and we get to catch up with Yvonne and get to know Vicky

Even though I took some pictures in the gallery, but I want to show it after the opening
with our pieces all set up!!
