A little cheer for the holidays, dog style…

Healthy Valentine’s Day!
Having feared loss, injury or sickness after my dogs’ recent mis-adventures, what better way to celebrate their health and happiness this Valentine’s Day than with recipes Made out of Love from The Honest Kitchen? (And, because we love having you on our mis-adventures, see the sweet freebies at the bottom of this post – for you and your pet!)
THE HONEST KITCHEN
So, who is The Honest Kitchen? Their team prepares meals for your dog or cat using human-grade ingredients and the gentle method of dehydration to remove moisture, not nutrition. Just add water to make fresh daily stews and go! (Read their free e-Book, Feed Your Way to a Healthy Pet.)
Curtis Hill Holiday 2010: You’re Invited!
Dearest family and friends,
Put on your pajamas, whip up some hot chocolate, and kick back while we spend some special time together. And, if you leave a note below, we can even have a little fireside chat! (There’s a story there about how the tradition of our Christmas tree trunk collection began.)
As we mentioned in our 2009 holiday letter, from now on we’ll forgo traditional cards and share our favorite moments of the season here.
The joy and laughter Tim and I shared making this greeting for you will live on in our hearts and memories forever. For that we thank you and sincerely hope you enjoy it too.
Wishing you many fond memories of years past,
and the making of bright, shiny new ones
in the coming year!
Peace, love and joy to you
this season and always,
Kim and Tim,
Shamus, Emmett, Jackson, Jed
& the birds
The Weather Outside is Frightful
How many of you are traveling for the Thanksgiving holiday? It sounds like it might be a good week to hunker down and enjoy a warm fire. According to Accuweather.com:
Messy travel conditions due to brutal cold, snow and episodes of wind will remain a big concern in the West early in the week. Meanwhile, more rounds of rain and snow will also shift into the Plains and Great Lakes through much of Thanksgiving week.
Last week’s snowfall in New York’s Capital Region gave our household a practice run in snuggling. The animals have since geared up (down?) for the seasonal shift, settling in for their long winter nap. Our snoozing, cuddling cats and yawning, stretching dogs prove, once again, that naps can be an exciting adventure.
Wishing you woolly warmth this holiday week and always!
Happy Easter: It’s Rabbit Season
HAPPY RABBIT SEASON!
Emmett and Shamus went all out to wish you a wonderful Easter weekend, complete with eggs, chocolate, and Easter rabbits. Just remember, in their minds eggs are oval-shaped dog treats, chocolate amounts to yard fudge, and rabbits are only ever good in stew. (If you think these guys make terrible Easter Bunnies, check out Holy Taco’s Top 25 Terrifying East Bunnies of all time.)
PEEPS SHOW 2010
For more wholesome entertainment, you simply have to check out the Washington Post’s continuing coverage of Peeps Show 2010. Whether you’re a fan of chicks or bunnies, everyone’s favorite sugary marshmallow candy is featured once again in this year’s Washington Post Peeps Diorama Contest.
Happy Saint Patrick’s Day!
Everyone’s Irish on St. Patrick’s Day. We Clunes (only one of which is truly Irish) are dusting off four party hats, donning some generally green attire, combing the lawn for some shamrocks, all in an effort to wish you a terrific ”Top o’ the mornin’ to ya!”
Before we head off to celebrate Saint Patty’s Day, Shamus, the honorary Irish Newf, leaves you with a bit of Irish wisdom to ponder during your drink fest and corned beef dinner:
- If you’re lucky enough to be Irish, then you’re lucky enough.
- Why should you never iron a 4-leaf clover? You don’t want to press your luck.
- When we drink, we get drunk. When we get drunk, we fall asleep. When we fall asleep, we commit no sin. When we commit no sin, we go to Heaven. So, let’s all get drunk and go to heaven.
- Don’t give cherries to pigs or advice to fools.
Have some of your own Irish wisdom to share? Leave a comment! But, most importantly, have a Happy Saint Pat’s!
