Good Bye, Mr. Pig

Sold! to the highest bidder...okay...the first bidder.

As it happens to all pigs, when they're good and fattened up, it's time go to market to meet their fate. Mr. Pig is no exception. Hanging on the wall at Seattle's Coastal Kitchen, as part of their current Normandy Cuisine theme, he met his new owner today.

He was my Wilbur. Some Pig! I will miss him. Since he's on display through March, I heartily suggest going there to say goodbye and to have a savory supper, of course. But, whatever you do, please don't order pork!

Meet the Beetles


Back by popular demand, Retrofit Home, a very cool home furnishings and gift store on Capitol Hill in Seattle is presenting the art show "Hundred and Under" and once again, I am so fortunate to be included. As the name infers, all the pieces will be for sale for under $100.


This year I will be exhibiting my own little private beetle collection. Oh, you didn't know I was an entomologist? Each little piece, measuring 8" x 8", depicts a real beetle. Well actually, I got the images from a book. It was such an inspiration because they are so varied and so COLORFUL.

The opening reception for "Hundred and Under 2010" is December 9th from 5 to 10 pm. The show will be up until the end of January 2011. The address is 1103 E. Pike St.

See you there!
