Once Again...

I was on my morning walk, with my dog Calie of course, and the slogan "dip, dollop, spread!" came into my mind. I thought it was fun, and life is too short to be too serious. The spread knife collection only uses scrap material and a local shop where I sell my goods suggested I make these knives. I figured, I have nothing to lose.

Each knife is unique, hand finished and would put the final touch on your crackers and dip!

They are now available in my Esty shop.

The Walk

Almost every morning, if life isn't to hectic, I take my dog for a walk. I walk along a canal on a nice bike path. It's an interesting play of industry and nature - water moves along to a hydro electric plant, power surges through the large stands of cables and mechanisms, inspiration for me comes from the rhythm and sights along the way. My favorite bird song resonates as I walk, my dog smiles and so do I. The redwing black birds fly by, unconcerned as I pull a piece of paper from inside my pocket to jot down new inspiration.
This is how it comes, freely like the morning. It happens and it moves me.
