The Spartan

My name is Josh, I am a Northern California Native and a very creative person and I like making stuff.

During most days I work with clay and make ceramics items for functional use in the home. These items include cups, plates, bowls and sauerkraut containers for home fermentation.

I try to learn as much as I can and go forth with what I need. I practice ‘Kitchen Alchemy’: I cook from scratch as much as I can and look at each meal as an experiment.
