They actually have merchandise in various price ranges, some items well above $5. My daughter says it is false advertisement.

I love Ursula! My favorite was always Megara, but she isn’t a princess because the princess rules didn’t apply to her. And Vanellope, but again, not actually classified as a Disney Princess. And, Tinkerbell, same deal. I have no real strong connection to the actual princesses.

We went to see Jeffrey Martin last night. He is my husband’s favorite singer-songwriter. It was a beautiful and special night.✨ You should give a listen to this wordweaver if you have not heard of him. His opening act, Anna Tivel, was divine, as well. www.jeffreymartinmusic.com #jeffreymartin #music

Every day is mushroom day around here! The #flyagaric is my favorite mushroom. In high school, I used to decorate everything with peace signs, fly agaric mushrooms & gecko lizards. This was my favorite #mushroom encounter due to the size of this guy! 🍄

I miss #Bellingham in the fall. Actually all the time, but fall is my favorite season. 🍁 🍄‍🟫 #internationalmushroomday #shaggyinkcap

This one time I stumbled upon a fairy circle while hiking. Magical mushroom mystery. ✨ #internationalmushroomday

Haha! We are relics. I still remember several phone numbers.

If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.

Did people really memorize phone numbers before cell phones, or is that just a movie thing?
2? Questions
I was watching some old shows from the 90s and noticed people would just dial numbers from memory - like they'd call their friends or family without looking anything up.
Made me wonder if that was actually normal back then? Did people genuinely have all their important numbers memorized, or did most folks keep a little address book or written list nearby?

That looks pretty good to me. 2.5 years and I am still trying to get it. Throwing has a big learning curve.

Up in cloudy Sedona this weekend. My husband’s band is playing a couple gigs so we get to enjoy the scenery and cooler weather.

My husband and son make the cut, but I was born 2 years too early. 🤷‍♀️

I made a couple mushroom cups. I saw so many fly agarics hiking when we lived in WA. I miss the idyllic nature scenes I would encounter on the day to day.

I use 22g Nichrome wire for my earrings and pendants.

Think might just love these fox too much to add them to the shop. 🦊❤️

Felt good to set up and sell some of my handmade ceramics at a music and arts event over the weekend. I set out some trinket trays, ring dishes, porcelain cups, jewelry, and some other wheel thrown and hand built items. My earrings sold the most!
