Cookies and Coffee

I ate them all! Yep, every single one! Fortunately for me my children don't appreciate almonds . . . tsk tsk . . . all the more for Mommy : ) My husband probably would have liked these wonderful cookies from Italy, but he doesn't really have a sweet tooth . . . and he is just too slow to beat me to the last one. So I enjoyed them all and finished the last one this morning with my coffee. I did stretch it out over the week . . . really I did.


Thank you again Monica . . . for organizing such a fun Easter Swap!
I have moved a few more items from my website over to Etsy and hope to have a lot more listed in the next week or so.



My Vet says the worst is over for Cider and she just needs time to heal. She is on antibiotics to stop a small infection but other than that she is doing very well. Better than me I think . . . the Vet basically told me to "chill". So I am . . . .with cookies and coffee : )

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Update: Boy she's FAST !!!

So I take my Vet's advice . . . just relax, chill, zen . I decide to have a long shower while sweet innocent pup sleeps on a nice flannel blanket. I come back down stairs to a laughing Hyena! Look Mom! . . . . no bandage . . . . isn't that neat : )



That blanket just got in the way of my mission . . . . honest!
Oh . . . I'm sorry Mom . . . I'll let you put a new bandage on immediately. I promise to leave it alone (Big brown eyes).





Well . . . maybe just one more time !




Those sad eyes work every time !!!!


Isn't there something you forgot to do upstairs?????

What a nice blog, I feel for your pup. I have had my pups in a collar or two and it was no fun. My big shepard had one on and he kept his head to the floor while standing, looked just like a hoover vaccume!!! LOL! I'll be back to peek again. Jennifer

LMBO!!!!! She sure is persistent isn't she? My little Cooper had his neutering and didn't even have a collar, and he barely touched himself LOL. I couldn't believe it!
