Are Asian Lady Bugs A Threat To Your Dog?
Happy Monday everyone! Are Asian Lady Bugs A Threat To Your Dog? Did you get to experience the swarms of Asian Lady Bugs covering your house last week? We did and I couldn’t believe it. One minute it was calm and quiet and the next the back of our house and yard were covered with swarms of orange lady bugs! You might think why talk about lady bugs? They are harmless! This new variety of lady bug is toxic to dogs and I had to do my research to find out why. WHERE DID THEY COME FROM?The...
Holiday Gift Ideas 2021
Happy Wednesday everyone! I can’t believe it’s November 10th already. I wanted to spend all of November on Thanksgiving Day food, decor, Jake, and Maggie but as the emails come in, I’m realizing I need to get you a Holiday Gift Ideas post for you and your pet(s). Mr. TAL and I spent Saturday shopping, having lunch at Burg’s Pizza and attending an event and craft fair at Bedner’s Greenhouse on Bees and Beauty hosted by Pittsburgh Honey. It was an educational experience we won’t forget. Nor...
Homemade White Hot Chocolate

I’ve been holding on to this Homemade Hot White Chocolate recipe for a while, bought these adorable mugs at Home Goods and now I can let you all in on my recipe. This extra sweet hot drink is a combination of whole milk, vanilla, and white chocolate whisked over medium heat until hot and ready to pour. Warning: This recipe is very sweet! If...
Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes
This is a re-post: I'm posting three of my favorite potato recipes this week and just couldn't leave this one out. It is absolutely delicious and so rich. I first found it on Grand-Baby Cakes blog but made some tweets to the recipe. Memorial Day is Monday and I can't believe how time is flying. Mr. TAL and I have been working hard and getting all of our yard work done in time for our party. I bought him a Blackstone Pizza Oven for his birthday and we are having everyone over for the...
How Pet Psychics Communicate With Pets
This is a repost. I was reviewing my schedule and Mr. TAL's today, and I'm surprised we're already in the middle of August. Time is flying by so quickly. Before we know it, my favorite time of year will be here. I love the fall. I love all the fall decor, the falling leaves, the smell, and the chill in the air. I put this post together back in October 2021 and thought I'd share it again, along with some updates. If you are like me, you are already planning some fall activities. My...
Keeping Your Pet Safe During Halloween

With Halloween not too far away, I thought this would be fun to put out again. Happy Friday everyone!!! Halloween is this weekend and we love celebrating with Jake and Maggie. I just received the cutest dog bows in the mail from a small business I support out of Arizona The Pampered Pooches for Halloween and Thanksgiving and am so excited for...
Skull and Fall Tablescape
Happy Wednesday everyone!! Can you believe Halloween is this weekend??? I had a totally different post written for today on Pet Psychics but will save that for next week because I just had to get my Skull and Fall Tablescape out! With less than a week away from Halloween, this skull table is definitely something you will want to create. And, if you can’t this year, save this post for next year. The fun part is making a list of what you need and scouting out all the stores for your table....
How To Make Black Spaghetti
Happy Monday everyone!! Have you ever tasted Black Spaghetti before? Well, I haven’t until today and I just had to blog about it. For as much as I love Italian food, I have never seen it before. I honestly can’t describe it. It is a combination of looking creepy and almost disgusting so it’s perfect for a Halloween dish. I can see this at a party, sitting in a big bowl mixed with chunks of extra sharp cheddar, green olives, and doused with Italian Dressing with lots of herbs. As for the...
Eaton’s Overcurrent Protective Device Video
Happy Friday everyone! I created “Jake’s Garage” on Two Adorable Labs to showcase all home remodeling projects, garage and mechanic topics, and electrical safety. Jake is always with his daddy helping around the house so what better way to highlight Jake and create DIY and awareness posts but to name a category after him and include all that we enjoy. Eaton’s Thomas Domitrovich,Vice President, Technical Sales, Dan Carnovale, Director, Eaton Power Systems Experience Centers, and Erik Hurd,...
Lititz, PA America’s Coolest Small Town
This is a repost: Mr. Tal and I were discussing some trips we have planned with Jake and Maggie, and our trip to Lititz came up. We both agreed that this was one of our favorite and most relaxing trips. We did not bring the dogs on this trip, but Lititz is a dog-friendly destination. I walked into a pet clothing store that allowed dogs and watched people walk their dogs up and down the boutique-lined streets. Some were dining with their dogs on outdoor patios. Everyone I talk to seems to...
