Very nice, Gary! I'll bet that baby will hold a nice amount of bean soup!
Is that called a brazier? I saw them or similar things used in 1600's cooking on a show in TVO around Yuletide past.
OH HO! Braziar! No, I think that is what women wear under their sweaters.
Bean soup! Sure thing, fill it up with bean soup grego, then we can warm our feet over it! I should send dimensions.
10 years in February ... :-D
Is a "dual poosting" legal?
a dual poosting is OK in certain downtown neighborhoods where people explore alternative lifestyles
oh you meant BRAZIER. righto. that is a little beanpot which you set on fire to keep your feet warm, right?
yepper a kind of brazier for holding a coal or two to keep one's tootsies warm.. or place in the middle of a table to eminate heat to all sitting around.
as for bean soup.. NOT IN MY BRAZIER! those I'll keep in my pipkin thank-you very much. ;)
hmm speaking of pipkins gary...
dual posting.. hmm def legal up here in Canuckistan.. not sure about down thar.. but with gary being an "artiste" they might just let him off with a sigh and a warning
Wow, it really turned out nice...
You know if someone were to put something liquid in that pot and then drink out of the handle...k, I shouldn't go there.

I'm sorry Gary - bout the comment. I'm surprised you didn't fire me...
are you sure it's not a bed pan?
Mags, I think gr "firing" someone is a compliment. Complement? Spellcheck, anyone?
BTW, Gary, Blogger is being a naughty child about me leaving comments...all stompy and whiny and error messagey
Beauty! Probably better than the real thing! You might just bring them back in vogue! But we all know you're a trend-setter!
