Here is the piece that was chosen for this show called Fierce Mamas (warrier women series). It was inspired years ago by Kipp my son who would every single day, when he came home from school, would ask, "mom what's for dinner?" so i started making my kichen witches and and these were actually single pieces but i thought how bout making an army of moms as a tribute to us gals who fight the battle everyday of dirt, laundry, pet keeping, laundry,shopping,taxiing and of course after a day of all that and working outside the home making dinner almost every single night.
