Eric Pardue's pottery

I've decided to post images of my favorite handmade things in my house. I spent several hours in my kitchen today canning tomato juice so I am starting with my cannisters. Eric Pardue made them, he lives outside Milton, West Virginia. I have quite a collection of his work and I never grow tired of it.

One hot day's work

Posted by Picasa

14 pints and 7 half pints!

I have spent the whole day making and canning hot sauce. I used a box of tomatoes from the farmer's market..... $8 for the whole box...not organic, but dead ripe and ready for the jars. All of the jars sealed....that is such a good sound!
