THE event of the year was held last night, and I was there. I'm talking about Carole Olsen's annual Martini Party and Kiln Opening. I've known Carole for many years through Kernersville Little Theatre. We are also in Steel Magnolias together. (She's playing Truvy.) I knew that Carole "did" pottery. I just didn't realize how talented she really is!
THE event was held at her house/studio in Kernersville. Each party goer received a martini glass to decorate. Numerous martinis were shaken, poured and consumed. Then everyone went downstairs and Carole gave a raku demonstration. Her pottery was on display and available for purchase. (Pretty smart of her to serve martinis before a pottery show - loosens the inhibitions to buy!)
I absolutely adore pottery and Carole's pieces are wonderful. I bought several and plan to use them when I host a cast party and for our Christmas Eve party. I'm very excited to show them off!

Aww, man, I hate that I missed that party - it's always soo much fun (and it starts the Christmas Shopping Season for us!)
What's this I hear about a Christmas Eve party -- shall I mark my calendar and save the date?
