<h1>First Slip</h1>
<p>Every craftsman knows the stumble that taught them the rhythm. In care, in cooking, in code—theres that one moment where things go wrong, and somehow, its where the real learning begins.</p>

<h2>The Collapsed Bowl</h2>
<p>Back in 2021, I tried to teach a patient the pottery wheel. I rushed the clay. It collapsed into a lopsided, beautiful mess. Mrs. Higgins laughed and said, “Thats the one that holds the most soup.”</p>
<p>That slip taught me patience isnt just a virtue—its the soil where dignity grows. In care, in cooking, in life: let the heat breathe.</p>

<h2>From Houston to the Dome</h2>
<p>Every mistake here in Houston—whether its a burnt chile or a wobbly trellis—has a place in the dome. We carry our slips with us, not as scars, but as stories.</p>
<p>Thats why I built this page. To collect our slips, our laughs, and the lessons that make us stronger.</p>
