Jingle Those Bells!

As some know, we have this darling, cute new pup! She is super adorable and cuddly, and we love her!

BUT.... I wish I knew how hard it was to break dogs/pups of their old ways. The lady we bought her from "pee-pad" trained her! Really? I think it's just a lazy way of saying... "go ahead and pee and crap over there". Whatever! So we called my sister in law, who trained her small dog this way: bell training!

So we hung the bell on the door, tapped her paw every time we went out with her for the last week and TA-DA! A miracle has happened. She now rings the bell every time she wants to go out!

 That is a very small jingle bell.... I hope to find a cuter one when Christmas comes around.

hallelujah!

wonderful.... in my eye's

 First things first... HAPPY EASTER!

2nd: Meet PICKSIE!

She is our newest member of the family. She is a Teacup Schnauzer,

so much fun, so much work and is completely adorable! Stella is doing pretty good

at adjusting and being bossed around by a 3 1/2 lb. beanie baby.

3rd:

Keaton has 2 more missing teeth. He was super happy to have his tooth fairy "Walter"

come and leave him some green! He really is smiling in this picture, just hard to get

a picture of those bottom teeth!  

 4th:

I saved the best for last, kinda, a ButterDREAM cookie from

Normandie. NUFF SAID!



My Quest......... for today

My Aunt Jill is hosting her bunko (or bunco however you like) this month. She is doing her theme: The Royal Wedding. Super Fun. She has all these fun prizes to do with England and such. Her menu is yummy and she was looking for a dessert. Well, I went on a quest. It was to find in Salt Lake or Holladay which "English Scone" she should serve and that we liked best.

Here are the results:

The smallish one: from Pierre's Bakery (3300 So 3200 E - by REI) DEVINE! It's Lemon and is dense and I devoured it in about a half a second.

The pink one: from Great Harvest in Holladay - Super yummy! It's Raspberry, kinda a breadish and grainy, none the less still taste's like a scone and super flavorful and is buttery good!

The blue dotted: from The Normandie (by the old Cottonwood Mall) - Fantastic! It's blueberry and not as bready as the raspberry one, yet alot more smooth than I thought it would be.

The Winner..... The LEMON is my favorite, and as I recall, Jill's also.

She is serving them all!

Just a few other delish treats from The Normandie!

Really, you cant go wrong there!

Dropping a Note..........

We were out to eat at the local OG over the weekend and our waitress was nice enough to drop us a little note..... I am going to start this, maybe not exactly this way. I am changing my ways and looking for the good in things, and going to take NOTE in them. Give those that deserve it some good old RECOGNITION!

We are going private.........

Can't quite decide to just be done with blogging or go private. I am totally not into it anymore. I can't say I don't have time, but I guess I think I don't care. For now we're going private.....For now.

Leave a comment and I will send you an invite to our blog.... I am giving it a couple weeks!

Thanks!

Merry Christmas
