My Monday post about what is happening around my home.

 Monday's post of 3 September featured  a few of the tiles I use to make in shadow.
I mentioned how I had my own kiln when I lived in Laguna Beach and how I use to make tiles for
kitchens, bathrooms and special days.

I unpacked some of my sample tiles


My favorite Molly Bunny tile

another sweet bunny

A raised tile, the name was put on the bottom space.
This is my friends Golden Retriever.
A friend had me make these raised tiles for all the dogs she ever had.
She placed them in the kitchen counter back-splash. 

Wedding or Anniversary tile, the date would be on the bottom line 

Lots of cats...

more kitties

Small girl tile, I gave the boy tile away as a baby gift.

Here is your pretty to start the week.
Sunday, I baked a Polish Plum Cake,  Placek z Sliwkami.
I am trying to cook some of my favorite Polish dishes my Mum used to make.
The recipe book she gave me was destroyed in the fire so I am looking up some recipes that I can try make for my family.
I will be trying Pierogis next.
Two kinds, one with plums and the other with sauerkraut.  My Mum made the best Pierogis.
We never had potato stuffed ones that was more Russian style.

So very good and very easy to make!

Daughter made Sunday dinner with what was in my kitchen.
We had, Japanese Curry, very different flavor from Indian Curry.
 Brown rice, tofu steaks, seasame garlic green beans and cabbage salad.
So good !
