This is the first time.

How 2 out of 3 pups watch movies together.

I feel like we made the best choices for advent calendars this year.

I used this little buddy to peel 5 lbs of potatoes, 3 lbs of sweet potatoes, and 10 apples. It is so fuckin sweet. Totally worth 20 bucks and even comes with replacement blades.

I had one of those comedy of errors kind of days where I was either late or early for everything I had to go to, technology failed all around me, it was raining, and I'm trying to psych myself up for a long day of cooking and cleaning tomorrow. But then this little beauty arrived and all is well.

There's a new-ish restaurant in Salem. I went today for my second visit and it made me tear up it was so good. The kind of food and drinks that make you feel like the owners are saying that they love you. Congrats to Maitland Farm Kitchen.

This sweet girl stole an entire roll of Ritz crackers from the pantry shelf, brought them upstairs, and left them on my daughter's bed. Tasty snack left by Tanuki > Gross dead mouse left by other cats. I wish I had been here to watch her carrying them around.

When we got Kermit it was assumed he would max out at 45 lbs. He is now 65lbs. Here's his before and after because he got some puppy primping today.

Here ya go!

Here we are reporting for family therapy only missing 1 dog and the cats. We feel strongly that doodles benefit from the family therapy atmosphere, so Kermit earned that couch spot. Cinnamon has a history of trauma that manifests as imposter syndrome so she believes she deserves the floor.

I got these great new boots that make me taller and infinitely cooler, but damn they are so heavy. These are the things I think about when I'm disassociating, but in a fashionable way. Don't worry about me, I'm just thinking about shoes.
