I'm glad someone else said that first! I was afraid I was obsessed with frosting and this low-carb stuff has really driven me around the bend

I think an artist should just go all out and really show us their pastry inspiration. I'm looking for some cinnamon swirls! :lol:

:lol: Hagi can be many things and very diverse. There is one that reallllly looks like brains. I will have to try and find a picture of it.

While I do like this thick fissured glaze style, I can understand it is not for everyone. There are some that I do not care for as well. :wink:

However having this in hand, well, it is quite impressive. If it is in eye sight, it simply cannot be ignored.

ebay heartburn. :lol: Just pulled mr. trigger on a Deishi teabowl, at just a wee bit more than any other single piece of teaware I've purchased yet. (Admittedly, I'm kind of cheap. Heh.)

Wow, nice Shino. I have been looking, but so far unsuccessful in getting one. But looking is as fun as getting! :wink:

Aaah... I thought that Shino might become the next TeaChat sensation!

Good time to buy Shigaraki, then :wink:

Strange coincidence: I have just bought a Shino chawan for my second chabako. I hope it won't be too big for the shifuku.

For my 3rd anniversary on TC, I received this unique and unusual Hagi. You know the 3rd anniversary is Hagi, right? :wink: I think the 5th is Shino, but nobody lasts that long. :lol:

I think I will bump it to the next page, it is worthy of top of page versus bottom of page, right?
