Round Top Collections
You loved our Roundtop Christmas last year so we decided to expand our fall collection this year. We have Scarecrow door wreaths, plant stakes in many sizes, and fall crosses. The shop is alive with ORANGE! How about a football tin to celebrate the season, perfect for those game day parties? For that co-worker or special friend in need of a pick me up, we have small glass pumpkin jars filled with butterscotch candies for just $15 and an assortment of fall magnets for under $5. It's all beautifully painted metal to last year after year.

COUNTRY HOME CREATIONS DIP MIXES
Everyone at Follette Pottery likes to either cook or eat and most of us prefer both so when we add a new "food" item it has been well researched. Our latest addition, Country Home Creations dip mixes, is no exception. Spinach/Artichoke dip with the artichokes already in it--how great is that? Let your taste buds read this---BLT dip, pizza dip, honey apple pecan dip mix for those crisp fall apples--holy cow! Come by and see what's out for "sampling " on Saturdays.

Hey look! We are on TV!
Yes, it was worth getting up 2 hours before the roosters to be on the Rick Roe "Made In The Ark-La-Tex " show on KTBS Channel 3 in Shreveport. Kent is a real pro at being in front of an audience and the visit was great for the pottery. We had visitors that very day who had seen the show. Thanks again to Rick and crew for inviting Follette Pottery over for the exposure.

Follette Pottery has made it to the big screen!!
From television to the big screen in the same month. You go, Kent! We received a call one afternoon from a movie producer in the Shreveport area saying he wanted to come see Kent about making pots for a movie. Well, you tell about 8 women in the shop who's coming and they were all speculating about who the stars would be.They ALL offered to deliver the pots. We guessed Brad, George, Johnny, Matt - who was it going to be? Turns out none of them; it is a biblical education movie. That meant no cussing, fussing, or misbehaving on Kent's part while he was making them. Talk about trials and tribulations. We'll let you know about the red carpet !

RECIPE OF THE MONTH
This months recipe is from a wonderful friend we got to know while attending the Pennsylvania Cajun Fest each summer at Campbell Pottery. Kent is the guest cook making huge pots of his now legendary gumbo for several thousand attendees (check out the picture of the the "Pottery Kings - north and south). Rita Uhlman and her husband always come by to see me and add to their pottery collection. They are two of the nicest people I know. Rita brought me an array of recipes so I chose to share this one. Watch for more of Rita's recipes in the following newsletters.
RITA'S BLENDER PIE
1 Follette Pottery pie dish
2 cups of milk
4 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 stick of butter
