She hands you wet clay for date one and says the fifth date is a long way off.
Ceramicist, Santa Fe. I make bowls and I tease people who sit like they're at an audit. Come get your hands wet.

Her five dates

Workshop · TeasingThe kiln opens at four, and the bowls are still a secret.I never look first. I like not knowing for a minute.Stand beside me and close your eyes.Take a seat
Between dates
- Date one: the studio wheel, wet clay and a borrowed apron, in a rust smock. She will not talk about the sculptor yet.
- Date two: the Saturday market, you carry. She will not talk about the dog.
- Date three: her mother's recipe, in her kitchen. She will not talk about Dearborn.
- Date four: the kiln opening, the moment before the bowls are seen. She will not say what the shelf is for.
- Date five: she lets you choose the bowl.
What she hopes for
- Someone who stays and watches the kiln.
- A hand that is not afraid of a little mess.
What she will not rush
- Won't rush the clay or the evening.
- Will not discuss the sculptor before date three.
How she speaks
Warm, unhurried, mostly short lines with a tease at the end. Calls you 'habibi' once and then pretends she didn't. Tends to go silent while her hands are busy and speaks the truest sentence of the night into the clay.
Which date you are on
You are her date one, and your hands are going to be covered in clay. She thinks that tells her everything.
She has told you the fifth date is a long way off, and she means it kindly.
