THE DUKE: UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL

CMMC December Close Up or Macro I had the camera in my hands and the only thing near me -- really near me -- was the Duke.

THE THIEF

Yesterday, I made pasta and sauce. Owen had baked fresh bread the day before.

A SERIOUS TALK WITH BONNIE

 I feel this is a perfect opportunity to air a grievance still fresh in my mind. Although we are indulgent dog parents, we don't sleep with dogs. They outnumber us two to one and the bed isn't all that big.  Moreover, they hang with us on the loveseat in the living room and in the … Continue reading A SERIOUS TALK WITH BONNIE
