The Year Is Already Ending...

And I barely said much here.

Honestly it has been an effort to keep my head on straight with all the things I have been working on these past months.  That is a good thing. I think.  And now here I am sitting still for a moment and I remembered I had a blog.  Ha! Anyhow, I'd like to begin sharing again. Even if it is sporadic.
Oh and I am gearing up for my holiday baking fest.  Those of you who know a little about me know that my family is Hungarian.  Every Christmas I bake beiglis (pastries eaten in Hungary during the holidays) and bring them to gatherings hoping my American friends won't be freaked out by eating rolls filled with a thick paste of poppy seeds.  And that they won't have to go through any job related drug testing for few weeks if they do eat the beigli.

I can't give away my secret recipe which really is a combination of a recipe from a cookbook and two other people's secret recipes.  But if you are so inclined and would like to make them yourself you can find the recipe here
boar    pig    quail
I ended the year making some pieces that were inspired by the warm yellow country ware you see in rural parts of Europe.  I kinda love them for their homespun ease.  
And who doesn't love a fat pig?

If these guys don't sell at my final sale I will load them into my shop toute suite! 

*Happy Holidays Friends*
