Happy National Mutt Day!

Today is National Mutt Day! Greetings from one of the muttiest mutts ever: when we had Tallulah Mae's DNA tested, only 4 breeds were identifiable--the rest of her bloodlines were too dilute to ID! For the record, she is part boxer, part Staffordshire terrier, part Corgi, and part Maltese (ha!).

Whatever is in her ancestry, they make up the cutest/sweetest/funniest/smartest girl! Also, someone in her background must have been a master of the stinkeye...

Tallulah-Palooza Friday

Somebody insisted on going to Starbucks as a reward for having endured a bath...Floofy and pissed!

Cloudballs

Delicacy

False oregano (meaning it is not edible)...isn't it pretty?

Hypnotist

This is Ria, the next-door cat. I was taking care of her for a few days, and because she is an indoor/outdoor cat who had to be indoors, I think she was trying to mesmerize me into letting her out. It didn't work, but aren't those eyes amazing?

(She is a very sweet cat and no trouble at all to mind.)

Weird

 This odd flower is actually a green ball dianthus (same family as carnations and pinks--you can definitely see the family resemblance in the little red flower). The red flowers are TINY.

The one above is growing in a pot, while the one below was growing on the same plant but broke off; the red flower appeared a few days after I put it in water.

I thought the colors matched nicely with my Ale-8-1 bottle (Kentucky proud, y'all!).

Tallulah-Palooza Friday

BOLO for Tallulah's ears...last seen on her head but now appear to have gone missing.
