Lulu’s lack of thumbs is really interfering with her desire to help around the house.

As requested: carrot cake with golden raisins and loads of hand-ground warm spices. Cream cheese frosting, of course, made tart with orange bitters.

Saying goodnight at the end of Lulu’s first full day at home. She’s claimed her bed as her own, filling it with toys from the basket, and dragging it around the room.

Welcome home, Lulu !

Just go ahead and mute me now if you can’t deal with the incoming dog photos

Two-year-old spaniel mix, was surrendered along with her three pups in June. Now the pups have been adopted so we’re ready to get to know each other

A dear friend died last summer. As we were cleaning out his house, I grabbed a sad rose bush that was still in its nursery container, but had sent roots into the ground below. I set it in a garden cart and let it languish. The cart filled with water and froze around the bare roots. As the other roses were blooming in spring, I trimmed the dead wood and planted it in a container. In the middle of a heat wave, this little rose is blooming with amazing color. I miss you Pat

Hello summer! This little lemon-scented olive oil cake is topped with a lemon-cardamom glaze and blackberries. (Also campanula, coreopsis, and Jacob’s ladder just for looks)

I said the last goodbye to my sweet Ginger this past Friday. At 15, she had a happy ten years with me, and had been the boys’ dog for seven. She never really got the hang of being with most other dogs, but she did have a few fun buddies. And she was a patient, gentle girl with babies and kids.

She’ll be remembered for her prancing trot and springing run, her soft bouncy ears, her deep grunts of pleasure when her chin was scratched, and her joyful adoring smile.

How we get Easter eggs
My 15-year-old pup Ginger has canine cognitive dysfunction (dementia) so we can only visit the dog park when there’s no other dogs. She still has the bounciest ears and funniest prancing run, though 🐕#DogsOfMastodon #SeniorDogs #DogPark #dogs
