Do you like to eat? (or do you need a last minute hostess gift?)

Here's what's on the menu:

loquat chutney (top off a grilled meat)

bread & butter pickles (put it on a sandwich)

dill spears (no brainer)

pickled cactus (along side a soft cheese)

curried cauliflower (exotic!)

pickled golden beets (don't need a thing)

loquat compote (on some ice cream)

lady marmalade with meyer's lemons (on your toast for breakfast)

Large jars- $10

Ceramic by CAROL NEVITT

Some incredible works by CAROL NEVITT.

Vessel #1-  $225

Vessel #2-  $205   

Raku ware (a Japanese pottery style used for traditional tea ceremony.  The firing temperature and short glazing process make for the unpredictable and cracked surface treatment.)
