My first two pieces from pottery class came back from the kiln and were not quite\u00a0how I intended for them to turn out, but I was still raging with excitement over them. \u00a0I made a speckled pattern that bled because I used the wrong clear glaze, but next time I know what to do!<\/p>\n

I still have FOUR pieces that are unfinished and sitting at the studio, but the session ended last month and I’ll have to wait until the next session starts to return and complete them. \u00a0Crying.<\/p>\n
I had no idea I was going to love pottery so much, even with how my patience is being tested with it. \u00a0As frustrating as learning any new skill can be, I’ve found this new passion to be incredibly relaxing and rewarding. \u00a0It’s already feeling weird not having my weekly pottery fix. \u00a0I really can’t wait<\/em> to get back into it in a couple of weeks.<\/p>\n Pier 1 had an al fresco dinner party to feature their summer line and beyond how much I LOVE (LOVE) good food, I shared it with some really fun\u00a0people, like I’d go as far as to say we had the “fun” table. \u00a0It also made me re-realize my dreams of wanting to dine and entertain outside forever. \u00a0Having an outdoor space is so very much a priority for wherever we move next, you betcha. \u00a0Also, if you didn’t recognize the pink hair, that’s my friend Sarah<\/a>!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n BACHELORETTE<\/strong> We had a bachelorette party in Vegas for my girl who’s getting married in a few weeks and this is pretty much the only photo I took. \u00a0Sums up how much fun we had, don’t you think? \u00a0Haha I mean that as we were having wayyy too much fun to be taking pictures. \u00a0That’s kind of a lie, I just didn’t have enough storage space on my phone like I mentioned previously, fail. \u00a0In all seriousness, this was such a fun\u00a0trip and a rare all girl retreat. \u00a0I also think this was the first time I really experienced the food in Vegas. \u00a0Everything we ate\u00a0was amazing and I’d honestly want to go back just to eat everything. \u00a0The winner was Yardbird<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n MDW<\/strong><\/p>\n We tried our\u00a0best to make last minute plans to AirBnB for Memorial Day Weekend, but instead we hung out at a friend’s house and watched GoT. \u00a0I tend to\u00a0prefer plans like these to anything more complicated or less intimate, although anyone who watches the show- wasn’t the last episode so unexciting?? \u00a0Disappointed! That monday we took a drive to Malibu which I think is one of my favorite places ever. \u00a0We mostly went because he wanted to drive in the mountains (he’s a driving enthusiast and the roads are windy and fun for him, carsickness for me) but the views are always good all around.<\/p>\n We hoped for a traditional bbq that day, but instead we had French. \u00a0Out of nowhere I was craving moules frites badly, very random, and it was a good excuse to try this restaurant<\/a> that’s been on my list for a while. \u00a0Again, dining outside- I’m such a huge fan of this!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" So much good stuff in May\u00a0I wish I had documented but didn’t because I’m that person who never has enough space on her phone HA (should I finally give in to Apple and buy more space… no, never. \u00a0Or is it worth it to not have to delete old photos almost daily??) \u00a0May completely\u00a0felt like … Continue reading “May Highlights”<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":12670,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"wprm-recipe-roundup-name":"","wprm-recipe-roundup-description":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[169],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12652","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-life"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12652","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12652"}],"version-history":[{"count":22,"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12652\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12686,"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12652\/revisions\/12686"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12670"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12652"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12652"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12652"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
