Dog walking another dog

Wordless Wednesday

dog walking dog

Aw … the little dog wants to take the bigger one for a walk! Cute!

Our dog Midnight tried to do just that to another dog last week. She grabbed the dogs leash handle and started pulling the other dog around. It was funny!

Still shopping for Christmas gifts

December 9, 2008 by Tricia

I’ve slowly been getting our Christmas shopping done, but I’m stuck on a gift for my in-laws. Keep in mind that we have almost no extra money for Xmas this year, so I’ve been being very frugal and imaginative with the Christmas gifts I’ve purchased so far.

My In-laws love to have a movie night at least once a week, and my father in law is really into watching his hockey games. I was thinking of looking at popcorn machines to see if I could find one for a decent price and get it as a gift for them. Obviously they enjoy having a snack when they’re watching movies or hockey so I thought a popcorn machine might be the perfect gift.

How do you go about picking holiday gifts? Do you buy things that you think people need or things that you think (or know) they might want.

A hardy rose – William Baffin

You may or may not believe this, but this is a rose. It’s a rose called William Baffin and it’s shape and the style of it’s petals is more that of a wild rose.

It’s a very hardy Canadian Explorer rose. Hardy to zone 2 I believe. I live in a USDA 5b gardening zone, so needless to say this rose does very well here and in fact it is one of my largest roses! Talk about thriving!

Naturally being in Toronto, on the coldest day of the year so far, this rose is dormant and no longer producing blooms or even leaves … but when it was blooming it was lovely! I believe I took this picture last June when William Baffin was in full bloom. I don’t even mind when it’s flowers begin to shed their petals as the grass is covered in pink to dusty rose petals and it looks lovely.

Do you have a rose or a plant in your garden that you admire?

Coldest day of the year so far!

December 7, 2008 by Tricia

OMG it’s so cold out today! Right now, just after 11 pm it’s now -11 Celsius (12.2 F), but with the wind chill it feels like -22 Celsius (-7.6 F)! Brrrr!

Our dog, Midnight, doesn’t seem to feel the cold. Well, ok she’s not dawdling around outside quite as long as she normally does, but she still dawdles far too long for us when we are freezing! She’s still young, only 15 months old, so I guess everything is still too much fun to let the cold bother her.

On top of this cold spell we’re going through I just discovered that the faucets in our basement washroom are broken. They still work, but I have a feeling that they won’t last that much longer. As I said on my other blog we have no money to spare at the moment so I hope the taps keep working for a while.

So how’s the weather in your area? Is it absolutely freezing there too?

Just like mom

the pig family

Nothing like knowing that when you grow up you’re going to look just like your mom! The little pig is cute right now, but when he or she grows up it’s going to be BIG!
