We were so excited to receive a package today. It was filled with the most fab things from the actual New Orleans Mardi Gras. I almost fainted from all the beautiful beads! And we knew exactly who it came from. Our most wonderful and absolutely beautiful Golden Retriever blogger friend from New Orleans ..,

Purim with Family

Today we got to celebrate Purim with my fab cousin Stephen and his beautiful girlfriend Megan. Purim honors the day the Queen of Persia, Esther, saved the Jewish people from execution by the mean man Haman, the advisor to the Persian king. A traditional food of Purim is Hamantaschen, said to look like Haman's tri-cornered hat or ears. So I prepared a plate of these delish triangle treats. 

We were all going to sit and eat together, but Annie as usual just couldn't wait!

Cheese Doodle Day !

 It's National Cheese Doodle Day! I just adore these crunchy puffs! So I prepared bowls for Annie and me. Annie was not happy about the difference in serving size. I explained to her that I do not plan on eating mine all at once, but savor them throughout the day. She, on the other paw, has no self control, so has a portion which is ok to gobble it up. She then proceeded to celebrate ...

 And there went her bowl of Cheese Doodles, in her mouth, in her tummy and all over her face!

Sunshine !

As you may know, California has been having this really weird weather --- rain ! But this past week the sun came out and it was perfect San Diego weather again. After all that rain, everything started blooming . I was so inspired that I took Annie and frolicked in the meadow. Of course I told her -- "Please don't eat the daisies!"
