Christmas Puppy

I mean...Little Nipper, Snapping Alligator! Just a few of the names he's called when he is in play mode. I have high hopes for a well-trained doggy. Who am I fooling? Can't even train my kids! Maybe that's why I'm trying to train a puppy. Give me a little self-esteem...hahaha! He did obey and came back to me after someone opened the front door and he took off down the porch stairs. I said "come" and did a hand signal that I learned in puppy training class. It was like magic. I was so surprised! That was a proud parenting moment! Now if I could just train him not to nip at our hands and feet!

Dear Santa...

I think this is the year you should bring me...

the WONDERMILL!!

I tried the Blendtek, and I love that machine. It makes the best batters and smoothies and even grinds up the grains, but then...my sister got a Wondermill for free, because her blog is so cool that they thought "oh, lets just give this cool chick a mill". Well, my blog isn't cool at all and will never get freebies, so what I'm saying is while visiting her house last month she had some yummy chocolate muffins with flour milled from the Wondermill. Yep, the texture was amazing. And, I realize I am missing out on that wonderful fine-milled flour. So. I'm pretty much hoping you get my list this year.

Love you Santa. Always have, always will!

Keane

What is it that just lures me in?  A great beat, uplifting clean lyrics, and of course his stage presence...humble, happy, and no swear words! Couldn't wait to see them again. This time it was outdoors and amazing as always. Thanks to my soul sister who came with me last minute since my concert companion had a raging headache! This one is for her!
