Life in quotes.

Life is a song - sing it.

 Life is a game - play it.

Life is a challenge - meet it.

Life is a dream - realize it.

Life is a sacrifice - offer it.

Life is love - enjoy it.

Meet Molly!

I'd like to introduce a new addition to the family.

Molly is a shelter dog that we adopted a few weeks ago.

She likes to play and hides her toys for safe keeping.

Her favorite person is my Mother, can't blame her there. :) 

She is adjusting well and has made herself right at home.

All the furbabies are trying their best

to adjust to the transition

and hopefully soon they will all be great friends. 

Here are some photos of her before

and after going to the groomers.

Before....

               and After.                

Welcome Home Molly!

Monday Muse # 5

I recently bought myself an espresso machine

so that I can make my own lattes and cappuccinos.

I'm starting to get the hang of it!

I was so proud of my Pumpkin Spice Cappuccino,

I had to photograph it!

Yummy to make you smile! :)



What's your story? "What I did on my Summer vacation". And, drumroll...a giveaway!

My lovelies...how I've missed you! It's been months since I've written ... I really didn't want to be away so long. "What I did on my Summer vacation" ? - house / garden / pet sit for my brother. And house / pet sit for my parents. Back and forth... 2 different states. I helped out my sister a bit with her daycare kids when I was "around". "Something" had to be put on hold....my blog. And maybe a little bit of my sanity. *shrugs my shoulders*

2 houses, a big garden, countless plants ( I lost count actually.) 3 dogs, 2 cats, 1 bird and fishies.

The chaos... the woodchuck attack (May you rest in peace. I tried to save you.), the maggot incident, the house alarm going off at 2am, the phone issues, computer issues, the heat wave, the angel who sent over an airconditioner, the time I got to spend with my nieces, the wine buying excursions, the MUCH needed day in NYC for my birthday with my brother and his girlfriend and a brand spankin' new camera lens.

It's the one-ish year anniversary of my blog debut!
You know what I was doing a year ago? House sitting. yep. Pet sitting, uhhuh.
 That's me. Awesome. :)

My awesome companions made it worth it.

You know who else is awesome? You.

My lovelies, it's giveaway time...
 I rather like "gift-away" time instead.
