“Take some more tea,” the March Hare said to Alice, very earnestly.
“I’ve had nothing yet,” Alice replied in an offended tone: “so I ca’n’t take more.”
“You mean you ca’n’t take less,” said the Hatter: “it’s very easy to take more than nothing.”

I "LOVE" the carved teapots... the speckled yunomi needs to live at my home... the emerald green eye is gorgeous... your work is spectacular!

But that chicken foot sake cup scares me alittle. Looks like something I saw in a salad in the local Asian Market. :shock:

Seriously really do admire your work... thanks so much for sharing. The speckled yunomi is calling my name.
