Kiln Accident...



One of the carrots tipped over during the firing, and rested on the adjacent shelf, simultaneously  adhering to the nearby pitcher.  We served miso gravy in it Friday evening, and various names came up  (gravy with a carrot on the side--Ted Ligibel's addition).  The carrot's perfect horizontal alignment (though something that could be arranged if the carrot had been attached at the leatherhard stage) is a fluke, but amusing....Usually, kiln accidents are much more dramatic, and unforgiving.  The rest of the carrots, after the firing, are resting in a narrow casserole.
