Gardening Thursday - "How I'm taking a work break' by Tiny


Yes, I KNOW it's Thursday and I KNOW I should be gardening (since Lautrec and I are members of the SOFG* and all), but I'm kinda not in the mood right now and I figured, 'hey, I'm an older gal, I deserve to take a rest when I want to'...so here I am taking a rest. Besides, Lautrec can do some work in the garden - for once - instead of just walking around PRETENDING to work (Yeah, yeah, I've caught on to you big boy).

But I'm not resting very long when something lands next to me...hmmm, it's a feather! So I sniff it...

...then I eat it...well, not really, I just put it in my mouth, but it didn't taste like anything so I spit it out.

Tiny's Tuesday - da Bones!



We don't often get bones...nearly NEVER because in general, bones aren't so good for us...especially chicken bones...they are just bad, but we got a couple of honkin' big bones yesterday so Lautrec and I took our turns at them...mmmm, they were good!! Nom, nom nom!!

Lolo Lundi /Lolo Monday



Am I clever? I don't know, I just do what seems logical...for instance, today, Mom gave Tiny and I some leg of lamb bones (you'll see the pictures of Tiny with the bones on her post tomorrow) and, well, since it was necessary to really tug and pull at the meat bits to get them off the bone, I just put my paw on the bone to hold it still...otherwise you have a real tough time getting the meat off. What is so clever about that? Doesn't everyone do that??

Sunday by the Pumpkin Patch



We have an absolutely GINORMOUS pumpkin patch that has taken over and swallowed our very big compost. Seriously guys, we have like 100 miles of pumpkin stems going in all directions and about 30 pumpkins of all sizes from small to very big. Mom just threw a couple of old pumpkins in the compost in the Spring and probably every seed took off and grew in whatever direction it wanted. In the first picture you can see me easily, but in the second picture, you have to search for that bit of a white dot and that is me in the same place, but the picture was taken from another angle...and you still haven't seen it all!! I like to go visit the pumpkin patch...it is cool!! Soon though, the cold will wither the leaves and the pumpkins will be ready to pick and give to our friends to make Jack-o-lanterns!! Woo hoo!! Oh! and BOOO!!

Reflective Friday



Sometimes, when we are on our balcony and are deep in thought, we forget that our reflection is watching us.

This is our contribution to Weekend Reflections, a meme organised by James of Newtown Area Photo. For many more reflections by many other people and to see how you can also join in with a reflection, please see here.

Thursday Gardening!!



OK, even though Tiny and I are members of SOFG*, I admit that this week we didn't get much ACTUAL gardening done. BUT!! I did do A LOT of air control. I am happy to say that the air is just fine and has passed all the tests my very sensitive and discerning nose ran it through. In fact, my node (a.k.a. nose) tells me that Summer is on the way out and Fall is well on its way in. Not only did my node pick up strong traces of dry leaves in the air, but also mushrooms, moss and rain...ah, and apples, plums and walnuts. Uh-hmm. I have the node of a bloodhound!!
