Ta Dah! It's Magic!

Once again we gathered around the old little kiln.  Tired and spent, it offered its best and its worst.  A quick crossing of the fingers, anticipation rising, UP went the kiln lid.  Some would say it's magical, others might say it's electrical. I say it simply.

out loud:                  in my head:

ooooOoooooh          YES! Love it


oh????????                   not what I envisioned


OH!                           runny glaze---jar stuck to shelf


oh, oh, oh!                 that's a keeper


oh.......x#!*               lid stuck to jar--doorstop


oh? oh.                       maybe I will look at it later


oh? oh...oh!               stuck lid came off jar after it tapped against a stick wielding potter


ohhhhhhhhhhhhh        coffee break!
