I really enjoy watching the cooking show “Chopped”. It has everything! Drama, comedy, heart-stopping action, competition, thrills, passion, creativity and bizarre food combinations! When those four chefs open their baskets, I am on the edge of my seat to see what is in them this episode! Will it be frogs legs and marshmallows? Gummy bears and filet mignon?

Don’t forget also to trim your dog’s nails and keep its coat at a comfortable length- a comfy dog is a happy dog. Follow these tips and you’ll have a happy, healthy dog that you’ll be proud to show off.

My Family Is My World
Oct 7
Sure, it’s hokey. I don’t care. My family means the world to me. We are a small family – just a mother and two children who are now adults. We are the Three Musketeers. We are all for one and one for all. It’s always been that way, and it will always be that way. Yes, we are separated by years, by locations, by different life experiences. Doesn’t matter. When one of us needs the others, we are right there. Every single time. That’s what family, real family, is all about. It’s about what you can give to each other, not what you can take.

Chinese Cresteds are a wonderful and fun breed to own. They come in two varieties, Hairless and Powderpuff and are both varieties are born in the same litter. They are a member of the toy group and come in many colors. Hairless Chinese Cresteds need to have special attention paid to their skin to keep it clear of blemishes; they need sunscreen if they are in the sun because they can become sunburned. It is common for the Hairless variety to lose teeth. The Powderpuff variety is called that because when fully coated, they resemble a ‘powderpuff’. They need to be brushed often and bathed weekly. They have a wonderful and clownish personality. They love affection and give quite a bit back.
