Judy, your beautiful blue covered casserole sits on my counter in a place of honor. I tossed 4 heads of garlic in it a couple months ago and forgot all about them (how indeed did that ever happen?). When I pulled them out, they looked perfect. Like the day I bought them.

Now, it's THE garlic keeper.

 
Hi Ang...

Busy living life. You inspired me to work more at my gardening and I've been enjoying my gardens so much this year. I'll put up a couple pix later.

 
Anyone who would like to support Judy can vote for her pottery. See inside for details.

To all of my good friends,

Last spring I asked for your support in voting for the "Critter
Challenge" and you came through- in aces!

Can we do it again?

This time it's a Serving Dish challenge and the competition is much stiffer.

Visit the site and vote...I think you'll be impressed with the talent displayed here!

Sylvia's note: Judy's entry is called "Chun Red Bowl".

Happy summer,
Judy

You HAVE been busy! Spectacular. My flowers are still tight buds---so cool and cloudy this summer.

Many are also stunted, so not a spectacular year for my garden. Your Oriental white lilies must perfume the whole backyard. And I love the whispy alium growing up in between the lilies and is that purple native pelargonium. And in pic 11, what are those purple spikes? Just lovely! My puppy Hope wants to see a pic of your 2 pups in the garden. Will they cooperate?

 
Ha! I have a large pump "uzi" water gun filled

with a diluted vinegar mixture that I carry with me when I go into the garden. Pups steer clear. LOL Otherwise, they'd be running through it non-stop playing chase, especially when I'm busy weeding and not paying attention to them (a never ending job). Yup, I LOVE the blue and purple pelargoniums.

I've got the garden blooming from March through November now as things come and go. May is our challenging month here as it's the between time of the spring bulbs and the summer perennials, but the alliums, dutch iris, waldmeister, german iris, and columbines are really coming through for me. I love having people over during this "down" time and hearing them comment on my gardends.

Fun stuff.

 
Who woulda thunk????

I am so pleased that it is being used, even more amazed that it keeps garlic so well.
I have my garlic in a piece I call a "wall bowl" (I have one on my web page)and it keeps well there.
I've also kept it well in the traditional jar with air holes.

 
Sylvia, thank you!!!!!!

I have been so inspired by the Mud Team and their challenges!
There is an amazing amount of talent displayed. I'm in awe of their work.
