Caffeine free Diet Coke and
Kitchenaid mixers a given, there are a lot of other things in life that I truly
love and would be sad to have to live without, like…
Sweet smelling dogs. I bathed ours just two days ago and all it
took was one time out the door and they came back smelling like, well, all
outdoors. I actually saw a still wet Max
rolling in the grass on heaven knows what.
So when I discovered Herban Essentials or as I call them “pup wipes,” I
knew there would never be another stinky dog in the bed with me at night. They work for cats too and I suppose things
like ferrets and hamsters, if you can catch them. Amazon—you have to try them!
Knit Picks’ Options. I am not usually a fan of wooden knitting
needles, but they were a gift and I figured it couldn’t hurt to try them. Oh wow, like knitting with silk. Smooth and polished and very pointy, just the
way I like my needles. The colors are
gorgeous and the cables are pliable. The
first time the cables come off and drop 300 lace stitches I reserve the right
to withdraw my endorsement.
I love Texas wildflowers. They are especially beautiful this year due
to the lovely rains we have been having.
The field behind us is covered in several varieties of wildflowers and
they must taste good because the horses and cows are munching them every day. Every morning I pour a cup of tea and walk
out to the patio with the dogs, and there they are waving in the breeze. Orange, yellow, purple and blue, like an
artist has slashed a paintbrush across a canvas of green. Heavenly!
Finally, I love little dogs with big
toys. Max tries to get two of these
ducks in his mouth at one time so Macy can’t get one. Sometimes he succeeds and I wish I could get
a picture of that!
Life is good!

Your pups would have me in tears watching their antics.
I love my Knit Picks Options, but mine are metal. Did you know you can add a lifeline to your knitting easily, by inserting the thread in the tightening hole and knit across - no fuss or muss - just be watchful of stitch markers and do. to knit them in the lifeline. OK, don't ask me how I know that little tidbit!
Gg is confused; aren't toys supposed to be bigger than the dog?
Mine are in desperate need of a bath, but... we'll see what Sunday brings. That's the first remote possibility on the calendar.
Fun post Katherine. Love wildflowers.
Perhaps, on your recommendation, the Knitpicks will go on my wish list…
