Chico, Maggie…
Pictured are Chico (affectionately nicknamed “Doodles”), and Maggie, both of whom are freshly groomed.
Chico was really just here for “daycare” and toenail clipping, but because Gary and I are close friends with her owners, I decided to give her the full meal deal (no extra charge!). She didn’t seem too stressed or upset, but as I took the photo, she seemed suspicious that she was going to get MORE beauty treatment.
Maggie has been a regular guest for both spa treatment and boarding. She is a pleasant little dog, happy and confident, but when the camera comes out, Maggie can put on the most dejected look! She has been the only Pet Hostel guest in recent years who leaps into the bathtub upon a simple request from me. Maggie and her owners are leaving our community, and I’m very sad about that.
I haven’t accomplished very much else today! I created something like Pad Thai Noodles for lunch and have Indian Butter Chicken (again!) in the crockpot, which we’ll have for dinner with basmati rice and naan (a bread). That link is for a sample recipe for Indian Butter Chicken; I find it simpler to buy the spice paste or powder for it, and follow the directions on the package! Here is MY Cooking Links page, on my site, for your entertainment.
Again today I didn’t get out the sewing maching to create something for a certain loved one. Now I am going to MISS her birthday and am chastising myself. I just feel so uninspired to sew, and wonder when the desire will come back.
In the mail today came two movies from our DVD rental club: ‘In the Heat of the Night’, and “The Defiant Ones’. The first one I saw decades ago, and the second I’ve never heard of. Both are Sidney Poitier movies. As our TV reception has failed this afternoon, I’m glad we have received new movies!
It’s time to go mix up the naan, and look after the boarders who stay mostly outdoors.
Thanks for stopping by! ~Ann
