Terra Cotta Curious

Did I ever show you this creation from August past? I do like what I tried to do. Paint job was not the best--yet it gave me an idea what the 4 inch terra cotta pot would look like. I gave a better painted pot, with a quote from the great American actor Morgan Freeman on the back, to an actress friend of mine. She loved it. Nice surprise for me. Yep, my own worst critic.

As I take another look at pot tonight I smile at the Mod Podge Sparkle used to seal the photo to the terra cotta. See the sparklies? Never ever once thought I would be all about the glue!

Anyway, I use an inkjet to print the photo on regular ol' bought at Wal-mart or the dollar store tissue paper. Nothing fancy. And the subject?

My kitty Noir. When he was a twelve week old kitten, Noir sat (and crawled with me for two hours at a Starbucks. As I tried to talk a co-worker into taking Noir home with her. That was four and a half years ago. Yep, I do think I got the better end of the deal!
Am proud of my little terra cotta pot. Yes, I sincerely am.
Still shock about the 'inner crafty' I did not think I every really had--
In the mean time, gotta find the subject of the photo-
Noir owes me a purr or twelve since I shared him with the world! :)
Stay tuned!

Tonight...

ahh...The Texas Baseball Rangers beat the NY Yankees about 15 miles from my chateau-

And my Iowa Hawkeyes beat the Michigan Wolverines at Michigan--SWEET!

Ventured to see the movie "Red" starring Bruce Willis, with Helen Mirren, Morgan Freeman and John Malkovich with the cutie who played Dr. McCoy in the Pre-Star Trek (can't remember his name---YET!)--I enjoyed the movie and feel in love with Bruce Willis all over again...

Got some school work I need to hurry and do, yet in the meantime as Sir Elton John says how

Saturday Night is just all right.....I like it like this!

Bernie Mac...

Like everyone else, I am saddened at Bernie Mac's passing. I was positive he'd be home from the hospital just like Morgan Freeman. Instead, Bernie went "Home".

I enjoyed The Bernie Mac Show. He so tickled me! I do recall the show shut down for a time due to his illness Plus Fox never seem to put the show in one place. Personally, I'd hoped for a reunion show--just one. Wasn't that satified after the the final episode.

My sympathy goes out to Bernie's family. Yet, I realize the halls of Heaven rejoice and smile...The Mac Man is in the house!

Good night, America.
