Halloween Treats

 Friday, the mailman delivered a box that was addressed to MEEE!!!!!

It was full of Halloween goodies from our friends, Miss Phyll and Willow.
Of course, the first thing I discovered was the very bright neon green squeaky fox!
The box had handmade cookies inside that were made by Miss Kerri at Kerri's Pawsome Bakery and she put all the cookies inside an adorable pumpkin tin that mom confiscated for herself!
Mom took a photo of the frosted ghost cookie.  The cookie didn't show up very well being white in color but she is always looking to photograph my CockerSpaniel smirkySmile☺
The cookies in the pumpkin tin were in the shapes of a spooky cat, Autumn leaves, creepy bats, a ghost and pumpkins!
How yummy are they?   SuperYummy!
Thank you so much, Miss Phyll and Willow and Miss Kerri!
Happy Halloween a few days early!

Tasty Tuesday

 Mom was hungry for Nanny's Goulash, so she grocery shopped yesterday and got all of the ingredients.  She sautéd bell peppers and celery and a small shallot together until they got soft.  Then she added a pound of ground beef and finally a large can of diced tomatoes.   Of course there was salt and pepper and a teaspoonful of sugar and garlic and Italian seasonings.  Normally, she puts this over elbow macaroni but she is thinking she may put it over a soft roll and enjoy it like a sloppy joe. Tomorrow she will do the pasta! 

I got to have a taste too!
Guess what else she bought at the grocery store -  a grunting piggy.
Off I go to play with my new toy!  Thanks, mom!
Happy Tuesday!

A Scary Start

 Yesterday morning, mom couldn't find me.   She called and called and called and I didn't come.    I always come when I'm called (inside the house).

Christmas package have been arriving and she's been hiding them under her bed.  I can't understand why she's not letting me open these gifts.  All packages that arrive are for me, right?!    I wasn't stuck under the bed.

She looked everywhere more than once and even checked the back door to make sure it was locked and no one had entered and stolen me.  

The entire time, she kept calling my name and saying, "Duke, where are you?"    I could tell that she was beginning to get frantic.    

She had this great idea to squeak one of my favorite toys.  She thought for sure I'd come running as no one touches MY toys!   

Still no Duke came running.

And then she remembered earlier putting her coat, that was hanging on the back of the chair in the kitchen, back into the closet that was in the dark puzzle room.  And it engaged her brain!!!

She raced to the closet and opened the door and out I came☺  Of course, there was a lot of rejoicing but she couldn't understand why I didn't scratch at the door or make a sound to let her know where I was.

At least I was found safe and sound but I sure did give mom a scare so early in the morning.

I promise that I will try to stay out of the closet from now on, mom.

Batter Up

 It's hard to see because it's the same color that I am but I have a Benebone wishbone in my mouth.  


I love my Benebones because they're great to chew on and they make an awesome bat!
Does anybody want to play ball with me?!
Happy Monday!

Love ya lots♥
