On good parenting…

A good dog parent…

Just because….

Home-made Hummus

I’m no cook but this recipe is easy. It’s home-made hummus. I added beets to the recipe because I love beets but that’s completely optional.

The home-made version has a very delicate taste when compared to the bought kind. With the blender, you can make it as smooth as you like. Add water if the mixture gets too thick for the blender.

Here’s the recipe. If you try it, let me know what you think!

Happy Mother’s Day!

Genius idea

A horrible tragedy

Nova Scotia, you’re in my thoughts and prayers

Beautiful video

The message in this video really spoke to me. I think it’s such a beautiful message and one so desperately needed.

Quarantine a la dog

My two doggies don’t understand what is going on. They don’t know what Covid-19 is and have no idea we’re in quarantine. All they know is that mommy and daddy are spending a ridiculous amount of time at home.

And they’re loving it.

It means more kisses, more walks, more time with mommy.

That’s them, after a particularly long walk. Ocean (top) would like nothing better than to go on another one. River (bottom) only wants to catch his breath. He’s not a high-energy dog.

It’s hard to stay home, work from here and not see a single soul. I know I am fighting cabin fever. But, Canadians spend all winter pretty isolated. We’re pros at handling cabin fever. I could complain and be grumpy or I could look at the bright side:

There are two rather furry creatures who are delighted to spend so much time with me.
