Winston phone home.

May 6, 2011

The other day I won a competition on lovely Lana’s lovely blog. She, together with The Fringe Arts were giving away a Sootcookie ceramic and all you had to do was leave them a comment containing your favourite winter warmer recipe and they liked mine the most. Whoo!

“My Winter Warmer Recipe – is to pour hot milk into a half empty (or as i like to see it, half full) jar of Nutella, get under a blanket on my couch and see how long it takes me to slip into an awesome hot chocolate Nutella coma.”

He arrived yesterday at the shop all bubble wrapped up from head to toe. I absolutely love this little tracksuit wearing gold faced creature who I have named Winston. Ladies, thank you so much for picking me, I promise I ‘ll take care of him.

The artist who makes these Sootcookie ceramics, which just by the way means “sweet biscuit.” in Afrikaans, is called Tanya Laing and here are some of her other pieces. Absolutely love the takeaway series, I want, I want.
