I'm willing to bet that few people know that there is a Twelfth Night Dragon. He landed in our tree this morning and is preparing to celebrate a quiet evening of merriment.
This is feast where traditionally roles are reversed. Servants become lords and lords become the help. In Westerly, R.I. there is a wonderful celebration put on by the Chorus of Westerly. We will not be attending this year but will enjoy our own feast. I'm not sure how we can do any role swapping. Somehow I cannot see Winter, Aloysius and the other kitties serving us any food at all!
Old Christmas is past;
Twelfth tide is the last.
And we bid you adieu,
Great joy in the new!

This was my Christmas treat. Robin Hopper is so generous with his knowledge and information that anything he writes is a treat! This is particularly enjoyable as he tells of his life as a potter and how he got where he is today.
It's a little warmer today, 28F the last time I looked. It's supposed to be 50 with rain tomorrow, then get down in the single digits by Tuesday. We will stay warm and cozy in the house. At those low temps I can't get my studio warm enough to work....so I've been doing some much needed cleaning in the house.
I'm making one of my slow rise breads. It seems like a good time to do it as I have only been making Cuban and other quick breads lately.
Stay warm.....as always, thanks for stopping by............*s*
Dearest Suzy,
ReplyDeleteLovely dragon and oh my if we had to live on those sporadic mice or once-a-year-fat-rat it would be tough to reverse roles!
Let it continue the way we do now. Everyone is happy; even that dragon looks very snug.
Hugs to you and stay warm!

Hi Mariette.....I couldn't agree more....although I think there could be an amusing kids' story there.
DeleteAre you experiencing this cold? Stay extra warm!
Love the idea of role reversal. If you know any rich sorts looking to reverse things, I'm available.
ReplyDeleteHope it warms up soon so you can get back to work.
Hi Patti.....No volunteers that I know of.....can you imagine Mr. Trump in role reversal? That's good for a laugh in itself!
DeleteWarm today.....getting much colder tonight!
oh I know, ROBIN HOPPER = HERO :)
ReplyDeleteHi Gary....He is isn't he? He should be a world wide HERO!
DeleteLove the dragon:-) Robin Hopper's books are really a must have, that's a great gift.
ReplyDeleteHi Lori....Thanks. Every year I give myself a present......this was a goodie!
DeleteI have lots of pottery books, but none by Robin Hopper... how did that happen? Nearly 50 degrees here now... falling into the teens and maybe single digits after midnight, brrrrr.
ReplyDeleteHi Michele....Robin Hopper's book "Making Marks" is one of my bibles. Your temps sound like ours.....stay warm!
DeleteLove your dragon - and any Robin Hopper book is a treat!
ReplyDeleteIt's even cold in GA - 22 high for today -- brrr
Stay warm!
Hi Judy....Thanks, I couldn't agree more about the Hopper books!
DeleteI hope any plants that are in danger of freezing are well protected.
