Now… for something entirely different! No, John Cleese is not going to jump out of a box, or anything of that sort. Rather, let’s look at some art pottery. This composition is glazed earthenware, and it has pride of first place because my Nicky has a pet name for me. He calls me his “kitty”. Therefore, I think that this somewhat quizzical piece fits who I am!
