Q: What did your students make today at the Cottage?
Eric: Three fishing creels, three tool totes, four silverware caddies and two cottage smalls. Tomorrow it is four fishing creels, four tool totes, five silverware caddies and two cottage smalls. Then on Sunday people are adding on to the two-day baskets with various smalls. (editor’s note: that’s a lot of baskets in three days!)
Q from Suzanne M: How much do you know about Quiver baskets?
Eric: Not much. I just know they hold arrows.
Q from Anonymous: What do you think about the New York City Mayor originally planning on still holding the New York marathon despite the devastation from the Hurricane (He cancelled it a few hours ago after a huge backlash)?
Eric: I’m going to hold my tongue except to say that I will never live in New York.
Q from Tracey R: Since you are in Atlanta and the Falcons are the only undefeated team, do you think they are going to win the Super Bowl?
Eric: No. You have to get there first and I don’t believe this inexperienced team can do that. (editor’s note: As a Patriots fan, I second that.)
Q: What annoyed you this week?
Eric: If you refer to my first answer — after all that today, you’re still making me answer five questions! (editor’s note: Poor Mr. Basketmaker. His life is so haaaaaard.)
