My 1st time demo-ing... Dare I say...Virgin Experience?

So... this was Brooklyn.
It was great.
Really just fun to be amongst some very cool, creative people.
The weather ,however, was not COOL.
It was Hot... and I was SHVITZIN'...big time.
And then when the nerves set in about doing a demo...
I was swimming in sweat...
I know... very attractive.
The band that was doing a sound check in the court yard chose my demo time to really crank it up...
REALLY?
But I actually enjoyed the day.
































































Below are photos of my set up.
ALL of these photos are from my new friend Nonna who was at the table next to me...
I forgot my camera and had to rely on the kindness of others...
I was NOT expecting the demo photos.

Summer....

I love THIS happy simple summer-y Etsy Treasury that I am proud to be included in!
(That's my bowl-third one over, first row...)























It reminds me of the "SUMMERWARE" show and sale in Brooklyn
I am participating in on SUNDAY!
This Sunday July 11th!!!!
See my side bar...

It is sooooo hot here in the "Garden State".
I am pretty sure my house is under a brown-out effect as some things seem OK...and others are just "not right".
My kiln had an Error sign at the end of the firing and showed that it made it to 1901degreesF instead of 1948degreesF...so... I ramped it back up again...
Of course it's the first time in FOREVER that I didn't throw a witness cone in...
DUH!!!!!
My clothes dryer isn't heating up and the microwave only produced a luke-warm effect.
It's either that or my 7 year old house is haunted...
I'm hoping for haunted. Way cooler...
Speaking of cooler...The AC isn't very effective either...
