May we take full responsibility for ourselves and our impact on others today... and then behave accordingly. A regular dose of ego reduction is often a good and healthy thing.

Cheers.

Oh happy day! I received a new chawan today!!! Yippeeeeee! :D :D :D

This wonder-wan is H~U~U~UGE! Almost a full 6"(15.2c) across at its widest point! Woh. :shock: And 4"(10.2c) tall. I LOOOOOOVVVVE it! I am learning that I really like a large chawan. I very much appreciate smaller as well - but there's a special place in my heart for a larger chawan.

This gorgeousness was hewn by the Ronin Ceramurai (aka Robert Fornell).
This morning's matcha - Unmon-no-mukashi. Yummm.

Cheers!

Thanks!

And, well,

actually,

thank YOU, Ronin-Ceramurai-san!

(I'm sorry to hear of your battle with the flu so late in season. I'm glad to hear you are all doing better!)

If you are ever inclined to share a photo of your own matcha and chawan / chanoyu with us, we would all be humbly honored by your sharing. :mrgreen:

May you be well.
