Precious Peeps it’s Pits and I’m Perfectly Petrified.

See on occasion on a Sunday evening when nothing good is on PBS we bust out the popcorn and all watch a movie.

Well last night my Dad recommended The Menu.

It’s about a group of foodies who go to an island for a dinner prepared by a renowned chef.

If you’re into fine dining and all that smoke and mirrors stuff and can handle high drama then check it out.

What transpires is terrible.

Freaked me out.

I’m sticking with fast food.

If you googled yesterday the doodle was a scone!

Of course Ma got straight to it and used this to promote the renowned raisin rolls on her tearoom page!! Nevers missed a beat my Ma!

Got me thinking of what’s my Doodle should be for the campaign.

In Paris for the Olympics in 2024 they’ve gone with a traditional little Hat Man.

Maybe I should do a bone or would that be too gruesome?

How about some paper shredding gif?

Just to underline that each and ever document is safe with me!!!

Precious Peeps it’s Pits Perfect.

I had a ferocious feed of fermenting fodder earlier in the week that cleaned me out and clean did my stomach in to boot.

That, coupled with the Canadian wild fire fallout that hit Ohio over the past few days, and I’m having to rest up to get back to peak performance.

Dad is being very considerate and kind to me but Granny is cross as forty cats because she says she’s had it with me chewing on crap.

Yesterday she found a pile of grass in my crate that was proof that what goes down must also come up.

I slunk off and feigned forgetfulness. Poor Dad had to clean out my lodging when he got back from work.

I may move to another palace to get away from the gnarled Granny.

The King seems to be an understanding fellow.

Just a shame he’s into working dogs.

Maybe I’ll stick with my master and mentor.

You know I am partial to prolonged periods of peace.

Apart from loving my Mom it’s what I do best.

When I am President I intend to make the working week four days instead of five and we will work from ten till three.

Are you in?

You heard about the painting at the tearoom.

Well we thought you’d like to see how it turned out.

The grey paint around the red awning had pealed and looked rough.

So Ma thought she’d make thing pop.

She snagged a pot of « OOPs » paint at Lowe’s. It was good quality outdoor material but clearly not the desired color that someone ordered. It was vibrant pink to put it mildly.

They virtually give this stuff away so ideal for Ma and her tight budget.

It went on like a dream one coat coverage even over the grey and man did it give that old building a little lift.

Now wait for this don’t you think the contrast matched the roses?

Seriously pals if you have a little job to do like a small piece of furniture or a door you should check out the OOPs section at your DIY store. I feels a pinkish red floor coming on at the tearoom too!!!

Blessing#1727-Perfect Pickings

Precious Peeps it’s Pits Perfect!

Dad was off yesterday so we got to have me time for at least part of the day.

Granny high jacked him for a few hours to do a little painting at the tearoom.

To recompense him for holding her ladder she took him for steak!

There is a place where they more or less give it away.

They brought home a big doggie bag because neither of them could finish it all but Grandpa ate it.

That’s unfair at least I should have got a lick!

Dad needed a king size siesta though to digest so I lucked out on that little love in and dreamed of hunting for my own feast!

We have to take joy in small victories and what better than to know we reached a milestone with our stories.

It’s very therapeutic doing these daily doses of dribble.

See not only are we looking for a blessing we’re also off loading our frustrations and gloating in our glory and now and then we get to laugh at ourselves too.

Keeps the grey cells active too.

They’re like muscles you know if you don’t use them you loose them.

If you want us to keep fit please like and please share our stories.

One of these days Ma will be arrested.

See, since her countryman Rory McIlroy was doing so well at the Memorial Tournament and since we can literally see the airship above the course from our town she said she had to go to cheer him on!

She had no tickets so the bro said she was mad and had no chance of getting close and that he’d stay home and care for us.

Undeterred she took off just after lunch.

She parked in the A parking lot no less that requires a permit but was assured by a kindly soul that it was unlikely that there’d be any more checks this late in the day!!!

She took a chance and the courtesy bus to the entrance. Talk about cheeky!!!

Of course she couldn’t get in but nonetheless took a few photos though the fence to show the glory of the clubhouse and the course.

She returned and picked up her car and then on her way back crept very slowly like a sleuth past the only part of the course that can be viewed from the road and who do you think she thinks she saw?

Well who else was wearing a yellow shirt and white hat? Maybe a million others BUT in Ma’s mind it could only be one man!!!!’

Another case of being in the right place at the right time only this time she saw The King of Golf on the DUBLIN Road!!!!!!

Blessing#1724-Second Sighting

I’m extremely popular it would seem. At least with Deer. Hope it holds true for the entire populace as primaries present themselves.

That for another day.

Meanwhile back at the ranch do you know what this is?

A corn circle you might guess.

We’ll no dear hearts it’s where we found May or perhaps June this morning.

She was having a good snooze as we headed out but by the time Ma tan back to the house to get her phone she was awake.

Shy too. Didn’t want to have her photo taken.

Took her heals and took off. Gave us a good perspective on another Wagging Tail!!!

We have a theory now too on what attacks the Moms to us is the gentle droning of the AC. On the other hand it could be Dads snoring!!!

Precious Peeps it’s Pits Perfect.

I’m working on my tan and doing a little protection of the plants.

Granny gives us all projects and that’s mine. Guard the Basil and Tomato and eat any bugs or critters that comes their way.

I’m doing such a good job we have the sign of first fruits.

She’s given Grandpa a project too.

He has to repair her latest dumpster dive that was aided and abetted by my beloved Auntie Denise!

I’m letting the Grumpy old Gizzard help him that’s way too boring work for a gal like me.
