Love Those Date Nights …
So we made the soup last week – the creamy cabbage kielbasa soup. It was delicious! And then I moved on to some studio cleaning and glass slumping. I had a small mishap with my spoon rests, as it’s been ages since I re-applied kiln wash, so after ruining 3, I’m prepping those molds with …
