….that was my interpretation and not Winnie’s
Monster Monday is back. It looks like that sweet Sunday Rabbit was nibbling on this monster’s horns.
Winnie hasn’t seen today’s drawing. I’ll come back tomorrow with her comment if she makes one.

Today’s dog is Lucy. She is a Bassett hound and belongs to our daughter in Hamilton. She’s getting on in years and she howls when she forgets where she is.
….thanks to Son of a Beach for continuing the Which Way Photo Challenge
My pathways, roads, stairs and signs are all from the Toronto Zoo that I paid a visit to last week.
….”It’s fishy Friday. Can I have some ice cream?”
I wish I could understand the thought processes of a three year old. Anyway here is Kevin’s contribution for Fishy Friday.
…thanks to Jess for hosting Dogs of Blogs
I’m not sure I’ll find photos to share every day for the month of March but I’ll try. My first dog photo is of Olive, my daughter and daughter-in-law’s sweet Frenchie.
…Thursday’s drawing for Winnie was this crazy ‘eyed’ bird
Winnie’s response? “It’s a chicken!”
….last weekend was a long weekend here in Ontario to celebrate Family Day
Family Day has become a tradition in our family where food takes centre stage. This year my husband and youngest daughter thought it would be fun to have a soup exchange. So in three households three different soups were prepared and ladled into containers for sharing.
Four of us drove to Hamilton where Gaelan had a lovely lunch of roast chicken, mashed sweet potatoes and broccoli ready to serve. Andrea and Josie brought a yummy salad and my husband volunteered to pick up the gourmet donuts from San Remo.
Winnie and I were the only two that won a prize in the Tim Horton’s Roll up the Rim contest. We both won a cup of coffee which we handed over to our hostess.
….I’m knitting
I’m loving my collage class but sometimes I just need a change of pace. A while back I started a hat for my daughter and I had wool left over so I decided to knit a matching hat for her daughter (my granddaughter). I wasn’t sure there would be enough wool and it did look a tad small when I finished. I opted not to attach the pompom until I made sure it was going to fit.
Yesterday we drove to Hamilton to celebrate our Family Day. I presented Winnie with her hat and it just fit. Of course she wanted the pompom so I got out my sewing needle and promptly attached it.
…homemade cards are the best
I have to admit that I purchased a card for my husband but for my Dad I made one. I took some of the transparency film that I printed and cut it into heart shapes and arranged them onto a folded piece of card stock. I added extra detail with white ink.
I gave it to my father this morning with a jar of hand and body cream that he likes and a small chocolate heart that I purchased at the farmers’ market yesterday. He was delighted and surprised. For one thing he was under the assumption that only men gave Valentine’s gifts to women so this gift was completely unexpected. Aren’t those the best kind? I think so.
