Astonishing Norge

I went to visit Laurie in Virginia. Now, you might pronounce it NORGE, with a soft G, but I think it sounds better the latino way - nor-hey...mas mejor!

Laurie took me to an...emporium. The Williamsburg Pottery Campground. As they state, "an astonishing array of handmade items made by artisans"...astonishing, indeed:


It of course begs the question, "what is an artisan?" Do you need to be able to pour plaster into a mold, period? Way more important is the question of target market: "I'm looking for a vase with an elephant. Yes, an elephant startled as he molests a tree."

And here's this little gem. Wait! do you mean to tell me I shouldn't eat plastic fruit? Are you sure? But its from China so it MUST be safe.

Aren't peeps also for decorative use only? How about those circus peanuts?
