Well, this past week has been quite the eventful one. As you can see, we took Jade in for his annual shave down. Usually you will not find this cat for 2-3 days after he suffers the humiliation of being shaved, but this year he came home, knocked down the front door, and said "Feed Me"!
Speaking of feeding. We had dinner over at Dad and Mom's Saturday night. It reminded me of when I smoked a chicken all day, and it wasn't close enough to the coals. When it came time for dinner, the ham and bean soup Mom had slaved over for 18 hours, the beans weren't done. At least we didn't go without. We ate a Vegan dinner of salad and corn bread, with Flan for dessert. Unfortunetly for myself, I can't handle almond extract, so had to skip the Flan. Who came up with "Flan" as a name for a dessert anyways? It's a Latino dessert, that is what is left over from making goat cheese I think. Then they put extract of Almond over the top to disguise what is congealed underneath. At least the Latino's, unlike us Americans, well, isn't that kind of an oxymoron? Most Latino's are American's now, but anyways, they know how to use Flan!
We went to the dog park as usual, and the group who is there were all happy that I am still a non-smoker.
Oh well. I have to go get some lumber so that I can build a new set of steps, as Tiny, our Min Pin won't use the shorter one I built awhile back.
Have a great day!
Hey, the soup was great the next day. Of course had to recook it for a few more hours and not in the crock pot as that was returned to the store as BROKEN
ReplyDeleteJade,
ReplyDeleteJust between you and me...if anyone shaved me, I'd bite them. And, I don't want to cause any problems, but what's up with Tiny getting steps customized? Is this really what you signed up for? Is that fair? Tell you what, next time the screen door is open, RUN! You're in Florida, if you can avoid the alligators and sharks, you have lizards you can dine on forever. I'm not trying to create problems, I just call it as I see it.

p.s. how did you get your human to stop smoking? Mine is up to 4 packs a day...it's like living with a friggin chimney.
