She's Getting Better!

Yay!  While Janet is still not 100%, she is way better and actually has some energy.  This is a huge improvement.  We doggies are happy for her.

A couple of years ago, Janet purchased some dog toys for Noodles at Costco.  They were labeled as indestructible.  The people that made these toys have never met Noodles.  There were 3 in a package and the first two were "noodleized" quite some time ago.  Janet brought the third one out the other day to see how long it will last.

Brand new, out of the package.  Noodles doesn't seem to care about it too much.

Cagey, cagey Noodles managed to sneak a piece of kelp into the house.  She loves her kelp.

We don't know why Phil insists on taxing our limitations.  He wants us to eat our food while he holds the bowl.  Why can't he just put the food on the floor?  Noodles is OK with forging ahead, but I'm nervous about this situation.

See Phil's sparkly new fleece jacket with DFH on the sleeve?  He "won" this jacket for having the second highest sales at DFH last year.

In an effort to get herself moving, Janet decided to make something new to eat.  Sometimes this works out well and sometimes we have to leave the kitchen because she uses such bad language.  She made the Fancy Mac & Cheese from Pioneer Woman and the Cheddar Swirl Buns from the Smitten Kitchen.  This experiment turned into the really bad language version.

She said this Mac & Cheese was way too labourious and used a multitude of pots and pans.  She also said the taste was fine.  It had roasted mushrooms and bacon on top.

The recipe for the Cheddar buns described them as "dangerous" because they were so delicious.  The only danger with these buns would be if someone threw one at your head after they were baked.  They rose about an inch high, causing Janet to have a bit of a meltdown.  Yet another yeast failure for Janet.  Why won't she leave yeast alone?

I am so loving the sun, shining through the foyer windows on my sore back.  I went for acupuncture yesterday and now I feel way better.

We are having another block party!

This Sunday.  It's at Wendy's so we won't get a chance to see everyone.
