detail on a family teapot




reflection of camera and i ,when i realised that i was able to see myself in the back of a beaten up
stainless spoon just taken from the dishwasher and just sitting in the cutlery holder.
you can even see on the side, a few logs of soap that are there waiting to be cut.
the generic dishwashing stuff must work well because those spoons are very very very old and beaten up :-)



sons car has been rained on tonight




a family tea pot

some pancake and some soap

i messed with some photos of dog before i made the pancakes and while i was waiting for the soap to get released

these soapas are sort of damp and shiny because they have just come out of the freezer.
they are soaps where i have tested new fragrances and have used some old plastic moulds .
which need to be frozen to release the soap

i am on a pancake jag. havnt had any in ages . maple syrup !!!!!!!
