Terrific Tuesday

 Farmer Will was here Sunday night plowing our driveway.  We had a wee bit more snow during the night and mom wanted to clean it up and head to the grocery store.  That's the driveway in front of my mountain of snow.

I couldn't wait to get outside to play!

Mom says that something is up with my ears☺

She's not sure what digging in the snow and circling around and around and rolling my ball over and over means.

Throw it, mom!

The temps are turning bitterly cold so I'm enjoying my fun in the snow while I can.  

Happy Tuesday!

Love ya lots♥

Sunday Fun on Monday

 It started snowing early Sunday morning.

Mom told me that as soon as it stops, we will head out.

It was a wet snow and perfect for making snowmen but that's not what I had in mind.   

We've been up for hours, Mr Rooster!

Mom asked the intermutts if spraying doggie conditioner on my legs would help with heavy snowballs not sticking.   They said yes.  They lied!

Mom loves to tease me with my ball~

I am sure loving my snow!

Happy Monday!

Nature Friday

 We are joining Rosy and Sunny this week for Nature Friday~~

It's been warmer than normal all week long so I haven't had to wear my coat.  It might be warmer, but the ducks still get to ice skate on the pond!

We are not finding anything worthy of picture taking.   The prettiest pictures are the ones with snow and the weatherPeeps assure me that it will fall this weekend - not much but an inch is better than none at all.   The ice cold winds and freezing temp have already arrived!

At home, the Amaryllis from the bulb of the month club is taunting mom.  She prays for it to open every single day☺

Missy's Amaryllis bulb all of a sudden shot up.   Mom is experimenting with the African Violets.  If they don't get buds on them before the next bulb of the month pot shows up, they are history because mom needs that spot that they are occupying.   

What - is my lip stuck?

Mom let me wear a harness one day this week and the next day it was back to my head collar <sigh>

Happy Friday!

Tasty Tuesday

 As far as mom knows, she has never been to a Cracker Barrel restaurant before but people who go, love their food so when she discovered this recipe on FB, she decided to give it a try.

She used ground turkey instead of beef and she only had a pound so she adjusted the rest of the ingredients accordingly.  

Cheese for me, please!

The aroma coming from the kitchen was making both me and mom nutty!  It smelled sooooooooo good!

Mom is not a fan of hot meatloaf so she let it cool quite a bit before she cut into it and tasted it.  

Have any of you ever had a "sweet" meatloaf before?  It was very filling and a soft texture and mom wasn't crazy about it.  It spent the night in the frig and the next day, she ate it again.

Honestly, she didn't like it any better than before.   It was still sweet and still soft.   Mom grew up never wasting food as it was a rule in her household - if you didn't eat your dinner, you didn't get dessert and you went to bed hungry.   

The next day, she spread Poupon mustard on it and it was better and palatable.  

Let's just say that she won't be making this recipe ever again.   The worst part is that this meatloaf had a bit of shallot in it and I didn't even get to taste it!

Happy Tuesday!

The weatherPeeps are saying that snow may be back closer to the end of the week.   My paws are crossed!

Nature Friday

 We are joining Rosy this week for Nature Friday~~

Yesterday was such a beautiful day here.   The sun was out and the temps were mild for January~

We still have snow but with rain on the way, it probably won't last.

Our Christmas Cactus is in bloom~

The Amaryllis bud really sprouted up quickly and mom is anxious to see the beautiful flower.   I'm in the picture too.  Can you see me?

We finally got a picture of the rooster and his chicken companions who we hear at all hours of the morning!

Mom took this picture a few walks ago.   We love the red berries in the snow~

Happy Friday!

Love ya lots♥

Warmish Wednesday

 We have temps in the 40's today!   Mom told me that I didn't need a coat and she told me that we would give my harness a go~

What do you mean that it didn't go so well.   

I will try not to pull so hard next time, mom.

Happy Wednesday!

Love ya lots♥

Tasty Tuesday

 Mom discovered a new recipe on FB that she really wanted to try out~

She added chopped celery too.   She adds celery to everything.  I love it and she loves it!  Sorry that the photo is blurry - yup, I love celery!

She can't remember if I've had cabbage or not so........   Yup, I love cabbage too!  

Dinner is underway~

Mom let me taste the beef~

Mom loved this recipe and will be making it again.  She didn't use onion but she did use half a shallot and Mrs Dash's seasonings for the garlic and onion.   

She says it's a keeper for sure!

Happy Tuesday!
