DIY Fall Wreath

DIY Fall Wreath

Happy Wednesday everyone!!  I recently posted my fall wreath on Instagram (@twoadorablelabs) and thought I’d share the DIY with you.  I don’t think I’ve ever done a DIY  so I’ll try to be as thorough as I can.  I haven’t forgotten about my promise to start posting videos.  I now have all of my equipment and should have done a video on my 2020 fall wreath but honestly, it is much harder than it looks.  I’ve been practicing and let’s just say…I need more practice.  But, I promise, I’ll get that...

A Checklist For Dog Owners Expecting Pups

A Checklist For Dog Owners Expecting Pups

Happy Labor Day everyone!  I recently had a conversation with a dog owner whose female dog is pregnant and expecting puppies very soon.  She wanted to know if there was a supplement to give her dog incase she could not produce milk after her delivery and asked about a birthing box or whelping box.  She had bought one but wanted know if her dog would naturally go to it during delivery or if she should show it to her before hand.  I called my vet who gave me some great information.  Typically, a...

Happy "Friday Treats Friday" everyone!  I'm so excited because fall is here.  Well, actually, it's not officially fall until the 22nd but as soon as September 1st hits, it is fall for me!  I start thinking fall everything...candles, recipes, tablescapes, dishes, home decor, etc, etc.!!  I went to Hobby Lobby this week and got all of my materials to make my fall wreath this weekend.  I'll be sure to share the photos when it's done!  I was going to make it today but decided this Hamburger...

My Guest Room: Combining The Old With The New

Happy Wednesday everyone!!  I'm so excited that September is here!  We have been working on many home projects and I've been slowly getting the house decorated.  I have also been on a mission cleaning out drawers and cabinets and getting everything organized with everything having its own place.  When we got back from Missouri, I focused on getting one of our guest rooms completed.  We had Thomas' grandmother's antique bed and family chair just sitting in the garage collecting dust.  My motto...

Three Ways Cats Communicate

Happy Monday everyone!  Can you believe it’s the end of August!!! I wanted to enjoy the last weekend of August but instead I was in the kitchen all weekend baking and cooking for my cookbook.  You guys, I made some delicious dishes and can’t wait to share them with you.  It’s been a bit difficult because my double ovens broke last week so I shlepped everything over to my sisters house to finish the “sweets” category!  As I was cooking up a storm, I had 3 precious little faces watching me the...

Dehydrated Broccoli And Tilapia

Dehydrated Broccoli And Tilapia

Happy “Friday Treats Friday” everyone!  As promised, I have finally dehydrated broccoli…and…tilapia!  I figured I would give you something extra since I’ve been promising broccoli for the last two weeks and kept changing my mind on which treat I wanted to post.  I bought organic broccoli and tilapia filets that I cut into pieces.  If your pup does not like broccoli, check out an older blog of mine:  1 Easy Way To Make Dehydrated Zucchini Medallions...

Why Waggle?

Why Waggle?

Happy Wednesday everyone!  I hope you are all having a wonderful week. We have all heard the sad stories of someone having to put their beloved pet down because they simply could not afford the medical costs.  I’ve talked about pet insurance before “How To Find Pet Insurance” (HERE) and this older post “How To Pay Your Vet Bill If You Don’t Have Pet Insurance” (HERE) but I have never talked about Waggle.  Why?  I literally just found out about it and wanted to share it with you.  No...

Why Wagmo?

Why Wagmo?

Happy Monday everyone!  I watch Jake and Maggie like a hawk and noticed that Maggie was picking up weight which surprised me.  Every day we play frisbee outside and she runs like a bullet plus she is active in the house.  Her eating habits have not changed either.  I dropped them both off at Paradise Paws Grooming in Oakdale, PA and when I picked them up, the groomer said that she thought Maggie had a bloated stomach.  All of the energy literally left me!  I immediately called the vet who fit...

Apple, Peanut Butter, Honey Sliced Treats

Apple, Peanut Butter, Honey Sliced Treats

Happy “Friday Treats Friday”!  I went to Krogers today and bought several broccoli florets to dehydrate for the dogs.  Per my previous posts, I wondered if broccoli would make a great dehydrated treat but at the last minute decided to make these pretty sliced apples with peanut butter (unsweetened) and a drizzle of honey.  Can dog’s eat honey?  Yes, they can.  See that post Can Dogs Eat Honey? (HERE). I was interested to see if Jake and Maggie liked honey as this was the first time they had...

37 Things You Did Not Know About Me

Happy Wednesday everyone!  I’ve had a great week so far and it’s not over!  I turned 49 yesterday and received the most beautiful cards, sweetest texts, lunches, dinners, and wonderful presents from my loved ones and friends.  Thomas always makes my birthday special by making the whole month about me!  One might not think to ask for an updated garage with custom cabinets, ceiling fans and lighting put in the guest bedroom and bathroom for their birthday but I did.  He is making it happen for...
