Michael - thanks for your comment, appreciate it. I find myself very fortunate in these times, just continue to pray for my friends to find what they want and need. Talk to you soon and take care. "Your Friend too" Deb
Hi Michael, noticed today that the rhodies and alot of the other plants are starting to bud as well. Guess thats what happens when daytime highs have been in the 60's. Hopefully the summer won't be so dry and hot though. Well I had an interview last week, just thinking if I get I get it- well received the job offer on Tuesday and just did the negotiations and looks like I go back to work on the 16th of this month. So, so much for time to reflect as well the time for myself, the vacation is over for now.
Hope all is well with you! and will keep in touch periodically. Your friend, Deborah.
Michael, How are you doing? I thought I saw you here earlier.

Khun Michael kah, I actually have very good news. I am going back to my old job on Monday! My boss requested and obtained approval from the Chairman and the Business Council members of the Indian Tribe where my last job was to take me back. They are a sovereign nation and they are run like a government, so perhaps I can stop actively seeking a government job now. But I'm going to retain my contacts here, because hey you never know. I might even try and get as many stars to my name as you have! You're the first person I've broken the news to on GovCentral. I just found out about this, this morning even though I had known for a month that there might be a chance I might be going back. I didn't want to hang my hopes up too high in case nothing happened because my boss had said that even though he's going to try, he's not promising anything. So Michael, do you go to online school too, like I do? Is that you needed to upgrade your computer? Haven't you been applying for jobs online all this time?
Hey micheal so basically you got a virius on your computer right and to keep it simple, and understand doing what you have to do.
i hope to to see you soon take care and be good and bea good "old man' fromanother old "man :
I'm thankful for all of the great conversations that we have had over the past year. I pray that we have plenty more this year! It is good to be friends with you!
Have to get my computer fixed, too! The gentleman who built it should be home soon so he can fix it and it will run better. Glad to hear from you. Missed talking to you! God bless you. Enjoy your week! I'm glad everything is working for you as far as your computer is concerned. I hope all is just as good with the rest of your week. Talk with you later!
May God give you all the best that you could ever ask for! You are a great friend!
Michael, Thank you for the roses! You are always special to many people!
Hope you area having a great new year, too! Just recovering over an incident from the beginning of this month. Doing better now. You are not my "friend", but my friend. (No quotes.) I'm glad that we met here! I've always enjoyed talking with you! God bless you!
Michael - hope you feel better. The weather has been warm here, so much so all of the bulbs, trees and rosebushes are already sprouting this year. Hopefully we don't have another cold snap and freeze all of those tender things. Take it easy ! Your friend too!
Good afternoon Micheal how are you?? long time no see
What have you been up to lately

Reasonable Expectations 10-11: The Foot Soldiers (F)
August 29 2010 09:52AM
Every Stanley won by the Edmonton Oilers featured a strong group of foot soldiers. Men like Kevin McClelland, Mike Krushelnyski, Dave Hunter, Dave Lumley, Jaroslav Pouzar, Craig MacTavish, Martin Gelinas and more. The Oilers of today have identified their skilled men of tomorrow: the snipers, the rear gunners, the flyboys and they will likely play their future roles beginning in the fall. The foot soldiers of tomorrow? Today? Here's the list:
- C Shawn Horcoff: With the summer procruement activity closing up front, it falls to Horcoff to man the designated checking line (as he did at the end of the season with Moreau and Pisani). A steady diet of Sedins and Stastny's await Horcoff and his linemates and we discussed this possibility earlier in the summer. He was a -29 one year ago and depending on his linemates (and his overall health) he could be in the red by a wide margin again this winter. The fact remains there are no better options for the tough minutes C role, and like last year there is very little support beyond #10. Reasonable expectations: A lot of PK work and tough sledding at EVs. Horcoff's FO winning percentage was subpar a year ago, but I think he'll still be the main faceoff man. The Oilers badly need him to rebound to previous levels and a longer term injury would be disastrous. 68gp, 13-29-42.
- R Jordan Eberle: I took 7 forwards for the top 6 (I'll post their details in a later post) and Eberle was the final cut. The Oilers could go any number of ways with this player, he has a nice range of skills and lots of grey matter. I think he might end up on a "kid line" for long stretches this season but there's also going to be periods of time when the kids slump and the coaching staff attempt to take the pressure off of the rookies. I think Renney and company may try him on the PK a lot early because his anticipation is already all-world. If he can contribute there, he might get Horcoff or Fraser as his center and be asked to play a more complete game as a rookie. Reasonable boxcars: 72gp, 12-17-29 on 15 minutes a night (with several on the PK). Jordan Eberle sees the game extremely well, and I think it might end up landing him a job as an NHL center down the line.
- C Colin Fraser: Colin Fraser is a very important player for the 2010-11 Edmonton Oilers. Toughness, penalty killing, faceoffs (many ownzone) and mentoring young men who are stepping into their first NHL seasons. He's going to be asked to play tougher minutes than he did a year ago with that ridiculous Chicago team, but he's also a little older (25) and is probably as ready as he'll ever be to handle the role. Reasonable expectations: 75gp, 8-14-22. If Horcoff plays a checking C role, the Oilers don't need him to be Rem Murray or even Kyle Brodziak. But if he can win ownzone faceoffs, help on the PK and contribute to a checking line (Oilers could move him to RW for the Pisani role) Colin Fraser will be a very valuable player for this team.
- L Ryan Jones: I considered Jones for the top 6F (seriously) because he does have some size and skill. The Oilers apparently are thinking along those lines (quoting Jones: "They said they didn't really have a ton of guys that fit my role. A power forward, goes to the net -- that's what they picked me up for.") and it is something we should look for in pre-season. However, Jones played 4line minutes and was productive in his previous town, so he's in a similar situation to Fraser (new town and a chance to move up the depth chart). I really want to slot Jones on a designated checking line of Horcoff-Jones-Fraser but don't know that the skill sets fit the checking line role. We'll see. Either way he's going to be a top 12F and we'll see a lot of him in varying role. Reasonable expectations: His resume suggests we're getting a productive player in a defined role who can make a difference in some important areas of the game. A complete wild card. 69gp, 10-12-22.
- R Zack Stortini: I think he's going to see a lot more playing time this coming season. In the post below Archaeologuy brought up some excellent points about the Oilers and how they'll use Horcoff. It got me thinking back to the 1997 Oilers (the Marchant scores on Moog group) and how they used their forwards. The club was deep down the middle (Doug Weight, Jason Arnott, Rem Murray, Mats Lindgren) and had a large number of skilled kids (Smyth, Czerkwaski, Marchant) on LW. They handled their RW's thusly: Kovalenko (please tell me you saw him because I can't explain him in less than 500 words) played with Weight on the de facto top line and they rolled Czerkawski, Smyth and Marchant along the portside. The 2line RW was veteran Kelly Buchberger and he played with Arnott and (mostly) young Ryan Smyth on a fun line to watch even when Smyth was just a kid. Marchant played with Rem and young Mike Grier (who was good the day he arrived) and they crashed everything in sight. Lindgren played on a 4line with a mixture of Klima (who played on all the lines depending on how deep he was in the doghouse), DeBrusk, Hulbig, Steve Kelly, McGuinn, Clark & Hillman. Long story short, could Stortini play a role similar to the one Buchberger played? Could the Oilers take Gagner/Penner and ask Stortini to play on that line? What about Brule/Cogliano? I think Stortini gets all kinds of chances just like that one to move into a top 9 role with this team. Reasonable expectations: 66gp, 4-7-11 and those numbers could increase if he can find a role with two skilled men.
- L Linus Omark: I wish he had come over a year ago. If Omark had been in Springfield to start last season the club would have had a long look at him at the NHL level. As it is, Omark is down the depth chart far enough that he'll need to impress early and will not get many chances. My guess is he starts the season in Oklahoma City and rips it up, and will be the first callup due to injury/slump. After that, it is up to him. Reasonable expectations: There's a wide range, since he should post offensive numbers given a slot in the batting order but we don't know that he'll get one. 25gp, 5-5-10.
- C Ryan O'Marra: He has good size (6.02, 207), he signed and he plays with a bit of an edge plus he signed an Oiler friendly contract. The Oilers clearly see something in him (they sent away Pouliot, Nilsson, Potulny but kept Omarra; he's in their plans) but math doesn't like his offense. He may land a role as a PK/faceoff man with some size and grit, but it will be a very small role unless he can post some crooked numbers. Reasonable expectations: 24gp, 1-3-4 and a pure checking/PK role.
- R Steve MacIntyre: We're now at the 13-14F role. Steve MacIntyre is employed as a deterrent and as a fighter. He is a big mountain (6.05, 250) and fact is he has been effective in the role. Tom Renney has some bullet points on his resume that suggest MacIntyre will improve enough to play more (Colton Orr) as time rolls along, but we shouldn't get too excited. MacIntyre--despite playing 44 NHL games--has about 2.5 hours experience in the NHL. Reasonable expectations: Oilers have their fighter. 3-4 minutes a game. 36gp, 0-2-2.
- L JF Jacques: Oilers gave him a huge push last season but it was a failed experiment: ALL Oilers had better Corsi numbers away from Jacques than they did with him. Jacques continues to get chances because coaches love the idea of him: Coke Machine on skates who can fly. Who wouldn't like that? I'd love to know what Fred Shero would have done with him and would bet money the old timey Flyer coach would have traded for him in a heartbeat. Still, you reach a point where the experiment costs too much to continue and I think the Oilers are close to being at that point with this player. Injuries are also a concern. He's missed a lot of playing time over the last 2 seasons and his career is in some doubt. Either way, that 24-goal season in the AHL is a distant bell. Reasonable expectations: 25gp, 1-1-2. He'll get another chance. Why? Watch him skate.
- C Chris Vande Velde: I think he has a chance to make the team. VV is a big player with a terrific resume in terms of faceoffs and has that size/skill combination that caused the Oilers to elevate Jacques and Stone one year ago. Reasonable expecations: 2gp, 0-0-0. A cup of coffee and you never know.
NOTE: This is the third of five reasonable expectations posts for ON. The first one is here and the second one is here. I'll have two more, one devoted to the top 6F's (actually 7) and then one devoted to the goaltenders (also 7. Kidding).

Good read before work
I am really starting to like reading your posts, Lowetide. Alwasys intelligent and well thougt out.
August 29 2010, 10:30AM
Good Read!
There will be lots of great camp battles to watch to see where everyone fits in. One I am especially interested in is the first line defensive pairing on the PP.
Is a Hall a lock to play D like he did for a lot of junior? In that case do you split up Gilbert and Whitney, or do you put Hall with Foster who was good for the Lightning? If Souray comes back the situation becomes even more cloudy.
What do you think Lowetide?
August 29 2010, 10:34AM
The problem I see, as do a number of bloggers and posters on the web, is that the Oilers are strikingly mediocre at taking face offs and that is even using 2008-09 Shawn Horcoff who was a face off stud. With his injuries if Horcoff is not absolutely dominating in face offs, we could be a truly horrendous. Like Fraser's skill set, I am just not sure winning face offs is one of his strengths.
Beating horse to death but one of the unbelievable advantages the Oilers of 05/06 had was they had the perfect blend of strong right handed (Peca. Stoll) and lefty (Horcof. Reasoner) face off studs
Maybe Fraser can improve or O'Marra or CVV make a surprising jump to the big leagues
August 29 2010, 10:53AM
@ Lowetide,
Communism has never looked so good.
August 29 2010, 10:55AM
The Oilers' do not have the stand out offensive weapons of other teams; our talent is evenly spread out among the top 6 forwards. As this is the case, the team should set up two balanced PP units in an effort to set up some healthy competition between the units. Consistency within the units is always key in generating chemistry. This balanced unit approach would lead to less personnel changes within the units as Renney would not need to cycle players in and out of the first unit.
Regardless, this year is going to be fun to watch!
Thanks Lowetide, excellent read as usual. I agree with O'mara, Omark & Vande Velde being on this list. However, I really think Reddox may end up playing more than any of these three. For the simple fact that he has an NHL resume, playing as a bottom 6 foot soldier. LT what are our thoughts.
August 29 2010, 11:25AM
I know Tambelini said he won't be adding more players, but I wonder if a call to the New Jersey Devils to take Dainius Zubrus off their hands would be in order. Another tough minutes center who can win a draw, and Jersey needs to shed some salary cap.
August 29 2010, 11:26AM
Will any of the Oilers be playing their "natural" positions on the PP?
Gagner/Eberle on opposite PP Units low left of net...
Hemsky on left wall, Hall on the other...
Penner at center?
Options are great

Heeey, lay off the hot chicks eh, not all of us are as edumacated as you are...
What all the Horcoff haters seem to fail to realize, is that some teams like to play their best line against Hemsky & Penner. Those are tough minutes. If you want Horcoff as a checker playing tough minutes, well, at times, it may be in the Oilers best interests to actually play Horcoff with those two.
I'm not saying that's what I'd do all the time, but if you get into situations where some teams play PvP, Horcoff may need to be on the top line. And with other teams that deploy more of a traditional checking line, let Sam take the reigns as the 1C and let him challenge himself to get better & fight thru it (at least he'll be supported by strong linemates). As long as he's not getting pwned, let him learn how to deal with being a 1C in those situations, while Horcoff can move to more of a checking line to play the other teams top line.
Because until they find a true, legit 1C (or until Sam proves the naysayers like me that say he "only" has a high-end 2C ceiling), a Horcoff-Gagner combo as 1C will have to suffice.
August 29 2010, 12:18PM
Luckily the safety valve for the Hemsky Penner duo is Penner. The guy is extremely good defensively and will help out young Sam Gagner as he continues to get better, as he has every year, defensively.
That is, if they choose to go with Penner and Hemsky as a duo.
I think they will choose to let Horcoff start the year in the role he finished out last season in. It's the situation you described. Horcoff is still getting a ton of ice time but Gagner is playing with the top line.
That does mean that Gagner will have to play against generally tougher opposition. I dont see any reason to revert expectations from the way they were at the end of last season until either player proves differently.
I know Tambelini said he won't be adding more players, but I wonder if a call to the New Jersey Devils to take Dainius Zubrus off their hands would be in order. Another tough minutes center who can win a draw, and Jersey needs to shed some salary cap.
Or Rolston?
Good stuff, Lowetide.
To me, the two most reasonable expectations as the number 1 line are:
IF Penner isn't traded, what's with all this L.A nonsense?
uh wheres the picture from? oh and yeah great story to.. i enjoyed that as well.
August 29 2010, 12:59PM
Good stuff, Lowetide.
To me, the two most reasonable expectations as the number 1 line are:
They could also go with:
2)Penner-Horc-Brule Or 2)Penner-Brule-Eberle
I think a Penner-Horc-Brule line could get a lot of ice time and depend offensively on the Brule/Penner chemistry. The line is defensively supported by Penner with Horcoff. This is a line where there is a kid line of MPS-Cogs-Eberle as the #3.
The Penner-Brule-Eberle line would represent a more balanced peppering of rookies among the lines with Horcoff on the 3rd line.
The more I think about it, the more having Horc play on the 2nd line with a 3rd kid line makes some sense. I know many Horc pushers quote the chemistry between Hemsky and 10, but that is a couple years removed from any kind of real success and that coincides with Horc's tremendous drop off. The fact of the matter is that Hemsky hasnt had any real opportunity to play with anyone as offensively capable as Horc used to be. There are now better options offensively.
*not entirely sure that the coach puts the 18 year old kid on the top line to start the year though.
August 29 2010, 01:41PM
As a fellow "man of the world," your concern for and generosity to Ms. Sobieski is an entirely different matter, then. You should be lauded.
Low expectations are easy to make . Can't believe what little most of you expect this season from the Oilers and especially the youth . A.Kimellman on NHL.com is far more optimistic than most of you are . " If the kids get off to good start and their confidence grows , then anything is possible " !!
Kimmellman goes on to say Eberle and Hall were elite scoring talents in junior (like we didn't know that ), and Svensson and OMark have already played against men for 3 years now .
In a nutshell , we go with youth (live and die with the youth movement ) or we remain in the basement . Nothing more unappealing or unattractive than staying in the basement, and wasting another season with AHL fill ins .
August 29 2010, 01:52PM
A year with the kids in important roles should probably guarantee the Oilers will be in the basement, and that would be the best thing the Oilers can do.
I think I saw you calling for the big 3 rookies all hitting 60+ points. That isnt even a high expectation, that is a miraculous expectation.
"He was a -29 one year ago and depending on his linemates (and his overall health) he could be in the red by a wide margin again this winter."
Yep, it's never Horcoff's fault. Ever.
GSC: I think most of us cut him some slack because the Oilers don't have (other) available options. Had Jarret Stoll stuck around the equation would be completely different, but as it is now the Oilers don't have a lot of people who can play those minutes.
Would you agree?
Sure, but to imply that Horcoff's linemates are the source of the problem with his +/- and drop in production (for the 2nd season in a row) rather than #10's own shortcomings is failing to hold the player accountable.
August 29 2010, 02:25PM
Sure, but to imply that Horcoff's linemates are the source of the problem with his +/- and drop in production (for the 2nd season in a row) rather than #10's own shortcomings is failing to hold the player accountable.
Yet, that's the first excuse trotted out for Cogliano when discussing his shortcomings as a player. If extra rope is given to Cogliano then that same rope needs to be given to Horcoff.
(Not saying that you have argued that point in the past, just pointing out some logic problems with how Horcoff gets treated on this and other boards.)
GSC: I think its both. Horcoff was not close to his best and the team didn't have enough actual players to fill 4 lines. So Horcoff was awarded JF Jacques.
Would you agree that JF Jacques had an impact on that plus minus number?
Who's to say that Horcoff didn't have an impact on one of his linemate's +/- rating?
As long as we can agree that both factors are to blame, I have no objections.
Here is a chart of all of the Oilers player's scoring chances playing with and playing without Horcoff:
This was put together by poster Quain at LT's using Vic Ferrari's script.
EDIT: Read it wrong
Interestingly both Penner and Hemsky do worse with Horcoff. How much of it is due to tougher opposition and how much is to do with Horcoff's terrible offensive season is up for debate.
August 29 2010, 03:03PM
Leelee is a younger more attractive Helen Hunt. Since Helen Hunt wasnt that attractive (unless you were above 30 in the 90s) I don't know that that means. When I first saw the picture I saw boobs, when I 2nd saw it I thought she was holding a beer bong in her hand. Knowing she's not cheapens it a little
August 29 2010, 03:25PM
Thanks for the read I guess.
August 29 2010, 04:05PM
@ Lowetide,
If the Oilers play in pairs, Stortini will probably get filler minutes with more skilled players this year.
I'd like to see him get 20 points.

Unless I'm reading those stats wrong, it would seem Penner and Hemsky both have a better percentage without Horcoff.
Not to mention, several other players on that list are better without Horcoff. Why would you pick only Hemsky and Penner? Why not include all?

Just caught that myself.
Because in many people's opinion there are only 3 Oiler forwards who can currently handle tougher opposition. Horcoff, Hemsky and Penner. That and it would be redundant to list everyone.
Here is what Quain put together using Moreau and JFJ:

Hey LT,
Do you see any similarities between the Oil of this coming season and the Avs of last? Good young firepower up front, Q's in D and Goal. The Avs franchise was a literal joke after they tried recruiting Roy, but they ended up turning it around excellently. What are the odds of this happening to the Oil next year?
No one seemed to give them a shot but everything seemed to fall in to place for them. Was it a matter of the stars lining up last year or everything going wrong the year before?
A year with the kids in important roles should probably guarantee the Oilers will be in the basement, and that would be the best thing the Oilers can do.
I think I saw you calling for the big 3 rookies all hitting 60+ points. That isnt even a high expectation, that is a miraculous expectation.
@ARCH . Super elite talent is not like normal talent, so don't treat them as such . Inmost cases they have been on an EXPEDITED coarse all their years . These kids learn and grow fast more than the norm , but only if given the opportunity by their coaches to do so . You stunt their expedited growth cycle and phyche and destroy a lot of them bringing them along to slowly . They learn, and learn fast, and don't lose the expedited path they are on . In other words they flourish much faster than you would normally expect of most athletes .
Going with thoroughbred type young talent is the route to go - growing pains and all , for if they are elite athletes they will not flourish going to minors and watching less talented players that have so called payed their dues ahead of them ( slap in face ) . It takes a special type coach to bring these kids up and understand them . They'll all flourish in first year if given the opportunity to do so and learning curve will be faster than you realize .

Leelee is a younger more attractive Helen Hunt. Since Helen Hunt wasnt that attractive (unless you were above 30 in the 90s) I don't know that that means. When I first saw the picture I saw boobs, when I 2nd saw it I thought she was holding a beer bong in her hand. Knowing she's not cheapens it a little
That really does look like a beer bong if you squint a little, but those are definitely boobs.
What movie is that? it looks like a movie about women with oversized hats tipped to the side.

That's a great picture but I think Charlotte Rampling might have something to say about it.

NHL.com has reported the OIlers signing Gagner to a 2 year deal.

Not much of a link with no real info other than Gagner is signed for 2 years. Thats a great term for both parties.
Rishaug's twitter says 4.55 total over 2 years for Gagner.

What do you consider super elite talent? Do you think Hall, Eberle, and MPS are Crosby-like? They have done nothing to suggest they can dominate like Crosby or Ovechkin out of the gate.
Look at rookie scoring in recent years. There are very few players that ever break 60 points, and even fewer 18 year olds that do it. Expecting all 3 to do it is ludicrous.
I didnt suggest puting any of them in the AHL. If they earn spots in camp then it's done. They should be on the team.
I've never played a minute of professional hockey, so I dont know first hand about the NHL learning curve; but this guy does...

Eight Favorite Things That Help Us Stay Organized
6 comments:
I am a fan of open shelving and visible contents-we take cabinet and closet doors off when we start in a new place and go from there. I love your shelving.ReplyDeleteReplies
- LibbyD6/18/2012 6:47 PM
I like the idea of open shelves, but we live in the country...think dry dusty roads, with a bunch of dogs and cats, and I can't imagine having to clean everything inside the cupboards as well as outside!Delete
We have those chrome shelves on casters, too. It means we can store all the tools in bins (for all the parts) and they act like those rolling library shelves that let you store tons more stuff b/c you just create an aisle as needed. Those things rock!ReplyDelete
I will have to try putting bar of soap in with the linens, that's always bees a problem. Even line dried sheets get that musty smell, so annoying to wash sheets that you packed away clean.
Everything on casters! We have a big wooden box on casters that Bubba just calls The Cube and that we use for all kinds of things in the garage and yard. It doesn't help us organize, but it's the most utilitarian tool/desk because of those casters. I'm going to go check out your organizing boards now so that I can nerd out.ReplyDelete
Jars are a great plastic-free way to store food and small items. If you don't want to waste canning jars on this, reuse food jars.ReplyDelete
I like your bedroom closet storage solution! ;-)ReplyDelete
Notes and lists help me stay organized, I'd be lost without them!
December 2015 update: Hi! For some reason I can't figure out, Blogger hasn't been letting me leave comments on my own blog (!) for the last several months, so I've been unable to respond to your comments and questions. My apologies for any inconvenience! You're always welcome to email me: farmgirlfare AT gmail DOT com.
Hi! Thanks for visiting Farmgirl Fare and taking the time to write. While I'm not always able to reply to every comment, I receive and enjoy reading them all.
Your feedback is greatly appreciated, and I especially love hearing about your experiences with my recipes. Comments on older posts are always welcome!
Please note that I moderate comments, so if I'm away from the computer it may be a while before yours appears.
I try my best to answer all questions, though sometimes it takes me a few days. And sometimes, I'm sorry to say, they fall through the cracks, and for that I sincerely apologize.
I look forward to hearing from you and hope you enjoy your e-visits to our farm!

Aunt Martha's RollsPosted Monday, August 6, 2012, at 8:59 PM
Malachi enjoying his Thanksgiving Dinner in 2010.
Aunt Martha was a great cook, but it her dinner rolls that made your mouth water. She always made them for those family occasions like moving cows, farm work days or branding time.
You could make them up ahead and freeze them. And, if you were so inclined, roll them out to a 1/2 inch for buns.
I will apologize in advance, because I don't see an oven temperature or baking time on my little envelope, but here is her recipe:
Martha's Rolls
Scald a 1/2 cup of milk
Add 2 or 3 tbs. of potato flakes
Add 1 1/2 cups of water until the temperature is warm.
Sprinkle 2 pkg. of yeast (2 tbs.).
Add to Flour Mix.
Flour Mix:
2 cups of Whole Wheat Flour
Add a 1/2 cup of oil
Add 1/1/2 tsp. Of salt.
Start adding white flour to the mixture until smooth.
Put entire mixture into a greased bowl.
Let it rise once or twice.
You can choose to have dinner rolls or buns.
This recipe is more of a family memory, like your grandma's fabulous pies or Fruit Cocktail Salad with Marshmallows. And who can top a Lime Jello Salad with Grated Carrots and Sharp Cheese?
Recipes are meant to be shared. You do have a certain license to leave out a key ingredient if it is a secret recipe. Just don't leave out the flavor!
I haven't baked bread for years. I am not even sure that I still can. But I have been taking the time to start my grandchildren cooking and baking from the very cookbook that I learned to cook from myself.
Memories can be made in the kitchen so inexpensively. I enjoy the excitement that KaeLynn and Nathaniel share in gathering measuring cups, flour, salt, eggs and other key ingredients.
My mother had an entire drawer of recipes in her kitchen the entire time that Bev and I were growing up. Some of them were cut out of magazines or newspapers. Others were written on a scrap of paper.
The enjoyment of food is a universal language in itself. We can always find something good to say when food is being discussed.
Here is one last memory and baking tip that Aunt Martha passed on to those of us whose desserts may not have turned out as pretty or tasty as we would like.
"A Little Bit of Whipped Cream" makes any dessert a tasty treat and disguises a less than perfect presentation.
Have a great week everyone!

Yum. Thank you. I bet these would be even more wonderful with some bacon (kosher of course--haha) added to them. I do bake and will let you know how they turn out. Thank you for sharing:)

My Mom grew up on her grandfather's ranch in Colorado in the 1920s and 30s and was cooking for ranch crews by age 7. One of her specialties was dinner rolls. They were a "given" for her contribution to most holiday or family get togethers.
But every so often, she would turn out a batch she referred to as "sinkers". Though the flavor was always just as good, these batches would rise quite as much as normal during baking were just plain heavy and dense. I don't know that she ever figured out why, but she would just whip up another batch, always in the nick of time.
Oh what I'd give for a batch of even the heavy ones, fresh from the oven with plenty of butter!

Oh yeah, and a pot of butter beans and ham hocks to dunk them in!!!

oops -
"WOULDN'T rise quite as much as normal during baking AND were just plain heavy and dense"

I can remember my first batch of baking powder biscuits. I didn't know that you were not supposed to roll the dough out. Tough and Hard!
Another batch slid right off of the cookie sheet. Mom just scooped them up and no one was the wiser.
-- Posted by KH Gal on Tue, Aug 7, 2012, at 11:20 AM
I hope it turns out for everyone. Like I said it was just on an envelope.
-- Posted by KH Gal on Tue, Aug 7, 2012, at 8:53 PM
Hope the tbsp of potato flakes is not a must have ingredient, last I knew you can't buy flakes anymore, everyone has turned the instant potatoes into a powder now instead of flakes
-- Posted by Eagle_eye on Wed, Aug 8, 2012, at 4:07 PM
I think Instant Potatoes work fine. I use them in cookies.
-- Posted by KH Gal on Wed, Aug 8, 2012, at 4:39 PM
I think it would be worth a try with today's instant potatoes. It really does make a distinct flavor difference. Or at least it did.
-- Posted by wh67 on Wed, Aug 8, 2012, at 9:50 PM
I have always used mashed potatoes to make potato biscuits. It's been a few years since I made them, got the recipe from a Dear Friend who died several years ago.
She went to the church Zook goes to, her husband still goes there.
She used to make them to go along with her pork chops covered in Mushroom Gravy with a side of Green Beans covered in the gravy too. Delicious!!

Fixing fence is the one of the hardest jobs on a ranch. I no longer live on a ranch, but I do know what hard work is. Fences are everyone's concern, but nowadays,the "hole" is always your neighbor's side not your own. It used to be that you would respect your neighbor and mend the fence together. If their cows got in your field, a simple phone call resolved the problem. You might even saddle up your own horse and help them gather them up. We need more people who are willing to roll their sleeves up and fix the fence regardless of who your neighbor is. There are people in this country who need to be reminded that a fence is like the way you should conduct your life. Your posts should be straight and neat. The wire needs to be stretched tight and your gate might be closed, but can still be easily opened. And most of all, we can all saddle up together and ride the range, it won't matter if you have an Appaloosa, Quarter Horse or Thoroughbred. The cows still have to be gathered, fences have to be fixed, and the range is a wide open space of opportunity for us all.

The wooden structure upon which Jesus Christ was crucified (Mark 15:20–26). Many in the world now think of it as a symbol of Christ's crucifixion and atoning sacrifice; however, the Lord has established his own symbols for his crucifixion and sacrifice—the bread and the water of the sacrament (Matt. 26:26–28; D&C 20:40, 75–79). In the scriptures, those who take up their cross are those who love Jesus Christ so much that they deny themselves ungodliness and every worldly lust and keep his commandments (JST, Matt. 16:25–26).
- Take up the cross, and follow me:Mark 10:21; ( 3 Ne. 12:30; D&C 23:6; )

Mother Of Child With Cerebral Palsy Says TSA Treated Daughter "Like Osama Bin Laden"
A TSA agent at JFK "started screaming at me and cursing me and threatening me," says a Long Island man who used his cell phone to videotape what he describes as an unnecessarily "aggressive" security screening of his developmentally disabled daughter. Dr. Joshua Frank, a Long Island pediatrician, is the father of Dina Frank, a girl with cerebral palsy who walks with crutches and leg braces. She can't pass through metal detectors for this reason, and is usually patted down by security agents, a procedure that frightens her. And the Frank family tells The Daily that on Monday the procedure was particularly harrowing.

This child abuse by the Obama government TSA agents was supposed to stop after a previous video of TSA groping a little child but Obama's TSA continues to treat our little children as terrorists.
Go to:
Unless they gave her complimentary food and drink, I would bet that they treated her much worse than they would have treated Osama Bin Laden.
The DHS has made it clear that all American citizens are potential, homegrown terrorists except the terrorists themselves. The TSA is just following along on that belief.
I've said it before until people just refuse to fly this will not STOP!
Everyone says, but if we don't fly that will just hurt the airlines. BS! You think the government could standby and just let the airlines go broke? You think they could continue their fascist reign of terror in the face of such a rebellion?
But instead of standing up against it they continue to line up like sheep and then they want to bahhh about their treatment.
Before Obama, they were Bush's TSA agents, a ridiculous overreaction to 9/11 that was good for the enemies of freedom, yet has failed to actually catch a hijacker. Disband the TSA, PROFILE all muslim passengers for terror links, and make flying a LITTLE more pleasant!

TSA Mistreating 7 Year Old Girl With Cerebral Palsy
By ROXANA HEGEMAN, Associated Press 19 hours ago
WICHITA, Kan. (AP) The grandmother of a 4-year-old girl who became hysterical during a security screening at a Kansas airport said Wednesday that the child was forced to undergo a pat-down after hugging her, with security agents yelling and calling the crying girl an uncooperative suspect.
The incident has been garnering increasing media and online attention since the child's mother, Michelle Brademeyer of Montana, detailed the ordeal in a public Facebook post last week. The Transportation Security Administration is defending its agents, despite new procedures aimed at reducing pat-downs of children.
This April 14, 2012 photo provided by Lori Croft shows her 4-year-old granddaughter Isabella Brademeyer, in Wichita, Kan., where she was a flower girl at her uncle's wedding. Brademeyer and her mom passed through security at the Wichita airport without incident when the girl ran over to briefly hug her grandmother, Croft, who was awaiting a pat-down after tripping the alarm. TSA then insisted the girl also undergo a physical pat-down, putting the agency on the defensive despite new procedures aimed at reducing pat-downs of children. (AP Photo/Lori Croft)
Doubtless saying, oh the kid grabbed some contraband off of the grandma... even if the reason for the grandma setting off the detector became obvious.
Did they even ask for or let the grandma hold the kid's hand while this was going on (I doubt it)? Little children put through weird situations like this are likely to be behavior problems. Hopefully we will not have to wait until the girl is old enough to vote before there is kickback.
The TSA goons give us some sense of what the Nazis were like. Imagine having to deal with those vile creeps all the time.
Sweet little thing. This BS from these trashy pieces of excrement called the TSA has to stop! It's about time that parents stop allowing their children to be dealt with like this.
Well, you know, I doubt if the (in)famous Dr. Spock would have recommended the girl be treated that way. Why aren't screaming liberal child psychologists giving the TSA hell over this?
I don't know, she looks somewhat like a terrorist.....and all those pumpkins...are they actually pumpkins or perhaps......who knows, we can't be too careful. One pumpkin bomb could lead to ??? who knows??
Coming soon to more highways, football games, so on via TSA "VIPR" teams. Hardly a peep came out of the American sheep at the airports, so the jackboots know they can continue molesting and irradiating us.
While people are justifiably furious at this mistreatment, what is missing is leadership on the issue. Who will organize and lead a boycott? Which State and Federal elected officials will take a position? Which States will outlaw the TSA behavior?
"One pumpkin bomb"
You toss one a them babies in the air, it comes down squash.
A pumpkin from 30,000 feet is no laughing matter.
"As Big Bird is my witness, I thought pumpkins could fly!
Please don't beat me anymore ... " Dina Frank
Incredible, ain't it? A little girl with a serious, disabling disease and they think she might be a terrorist.
TSA goons!
Truthfully, the last time I flew was pre 9/11. And it wasn't a pleasant experience then. I can only imagine what it is now.
Between the TSA, the rudeness of most (not all) airline employees and the price...why take the chance? Heck I could be treated like a criminal by the TSA or left sitting on the tarmac for hours. Being the customer in this situation seems to be a moot point.
I feel so very sorry for the little girl in this story.
In Chechnya, Iraq and Israel, there have been several incidents of suicide bombs carried by disabled people. If we suddenly stopped screening certain passengers, they would no doubt use it to their advantage.
I think the TSA is incompetent and we definitely need better methods and more competent screeners. More behavior profiling and bomb sniffing equipment instead of groping.
Remember, it only takes a high explosive charge the size of a white-out bottle to bring down a plane with hundreds of people. Everything going on a commercial plane must be screened for explosives and I think groping is less effective than dogs or sniffer machines.
I felt abused as well last weekend, being fully patted down because I was a blonde mama wearing a baby in a front pack. Only I was picked out as suspicious. The TSA agent was decent enough but the fact that I was wearing a baby was what made me suspicious, and I resent that very much. I was steaming angry with tears after it was over.
I see from your profile that you are an engineer. Can you explain to this dumb ol' pilot how and explosive charge the size of a white out bottle can take down a whole airplane? Does it take out all the engines? Does it take off a wing?
I also see that you are an American by choice. Welcome! Come on down to Texas and learn more about our great country.
Yes, the American people just no longer have any common sense to speak of.
see!!!!!! and at 30,000 feet who knows what could happen!
Major US Airport To Evict TSA Screeners
Orlando Sanford International could prompt stampede of other opt-outs
Paul Joseph Watson
Prison Planet.com
Wednesday, March 14, 2012
One of Americas busiest airports, Orlando Sanford International, has announced it will opt out of using TSA workers to screen passengers, a move which threatens the highly unpopular federal agencys role in other airports across the nation.
The president of the airport said Tuesday that he would apply again to use private operators to screen passengers, using federal standards and oversight, reports the Miami Herald [1].
With Sanford International having originally been prevented by the TSA from opting out back in November 2010 when the federal agency froze the ability for airports to use their own private screeners, a law passed by the Senate last month [2] forces the TSA to reconsider applications.
West Yellowstone Airport in Montana has already replaced its TSA screeners with private security. Bert Mooney Airport, also in Montana, is attempting to do the same.
However, when Texas lawmakers attempted to pass a bill last year that would have outlawed invasive TSA pat downs, the feds threatened to implement a blockade [10] that would have imposed a de facto no fly zone over the lone star state.
This article is a lie. Orlando Sanford airport is not one of the busiest in the nation. Orlando International is. Orlando Sanford is KSFB. International is KMCO. Big difference.
Seeds everywhere, for one thing. And the pulp is really hard to wash out of your hair once it dries.
I haven't flown since September 2001, and have no intention of doing so.
I actually always wanted to be a pilot but my vision is terrible. I never worked as an aircraft engineer but was always very interested in planes. Obviously nobody would release information that shows how much explosives are needed and where but here is why I think small explosives are so dangerous:
-An aircraft that flies to high altitude is basically a large cylindrical pressure vessel with comparatively very thin walls. The skin is 1-2mm, about as thick as a dime or quarter. The maximum pressure differential in flight is less than 10psi and airframes are typically pressure tested to only 150% of the maximum expected in flight. I don't know what the burst strength is but it cannot be much higher than 20psi for commercial airliners. Planes are designed to handle normal operating stresses and pressures at the lowest weight possible, not bombs. There is not much safety factor or overdesign in aircraft since weight is so crucial. Im sure you know that an airframe can be overstressed just by flying too aggressively.
-A bomb creates a local high pressure zone around it several times higher than 20psi. The velocity of the explosion is almost 30,000fps. At cruising altitude, the walls are already loaded and a high explosive placed at the exterior wall is guaranteed to punch through with some degree. A jagged hole at cruising speed can quickly begin to tear and disintegrate the plane. How big of a hole and how damaging it will be depends on many factors. It can also punch through the floor and spark the center fuel tank. I didn't say a tiny charge absolutely will take down a plane. I'm saying it can.
We already have seen a few incidents that prove how damaging explosives are:
-The Lockerbie bomb was only 300 grams of mainly RDX. That is about 200cc, the volume of a small 6.7oz cup of water. It is believed that the bomb was concealed inside a walkman tape player. However, the bomb was randomly placed in the cargo hold inside a suitcase and not at the wall. RDX produces incredible pressure up close but has a smaller blast radius than some other explosives. This was also a 747 and large planes have more room for expansion. Even so, the bomb instantly blew multiple holes in the side of the cargo hold, the bulkhead, the floor and the roof of the 747. The plane disintegrated seconds after. A bomb of this size can be fairly easily hidden INSIDE someones body. No gropers or scanners will see it.
- Ramzi Yousef placed a small liquid bomb on a Philippine Airlines 747. The exact quantity was not calculated like in Lockerbie but he claimed that it was only 1/10 of a bottle of contact lens cleaner. This is only 1 to 1.5oz and judging by how much less damage there was compared to Lockerbie, this is an accurate estimate. It was placed under a seat away from the exterior and closer to the center of the plane because his intent was to hit the center fuel tank. It blew a man-sized hole in the floor, cut the control cables in the ceiling and completely blew off the lower half of the man sitting there. The plane did not go down because he miscalculated the location of the tank, placed it in the wrong seat and it was far from the blast radius. It was also was too far inside to punch an exterior wall.
A whiteout bottle is about 1oz. IMO, a crude high explosive of that size can bring down a plane under certain conditions. A shaped charge of that size most definitely will.
Nicely explained. I offer as a counter argument Aloha Airlines flight 243 of April 28, 1988.
When overstressed as a whole with uniform exterior/interior pressures, the fuselage has breakaway points that are designed to allow the plane to remain in flight after the overpressure is explosively released. The structure adjacent to these points is reinforced and designed to keep the plane structurally intact and relatively controllable at a designed airspeed. You can see in this photo how the break was relatively symmetrical with respect to two axes, balancing the forces. It was also opposite the tail control surfaces and this would allow the greatest possible leverage to keep the plane level against the forces generated by this break. If the moment (force X distance from axis) generated by an aerodynamic disturbance is greater than the maximum moment from a fully deflected control surface, you lose control in that axis.
A bomb creates a local pressure at a random or specifically selected point. The break is unlikely to be symmetrical or surrounded by reinforcement. The holes created by the Lockerbie bomb were far smaller than on this flight, but proved instantly catastrophic.
Sir, you need to get out of the environmental business and become an aeronautical engineer.

From The Associated Press...
In a game that will be remembered for the quarterbacks' head-to-head matchup, Indianapolis gave coach Chuck Pagano an unforgettable memory in his first trip back to Lucas Oil Stadium since being diagnosed with a form of leukemia on Sept. 26. Andrew Luck threw for a rookie record 433 yards and two touchdowns, leading the surprising Colts past Miami 23-20.
Pagano, meanwhile, provided the inspiration with his pregame and postgame speeches along with some perspective on the games themselves.
"I've got circumstances. You guys understand it, I understand it," Pagano told the team as it gathered around after the win. "It's already beat. It's already beat. My vision that I'm living is to see two more daughters get married, dance at their weddings and then lift the Lombardi Trophy several times. I'm dancing at two more weddings and we're hoisting that trophy together, men. Congratulations, I love all of you."

Kickoff 'New Markets, New Jobs' Event Puts Small and Medium-Sized Agribusinesses in the Spotlight
Yesterday, I was honored to represent the U.S. Department of Agriculture at the 'New Markets, New Jobs' conference held at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis.
Minnesota is one of our agricultural trade leaders, ranking sixth among all 50 states for U.S. farm exports, generating nearly $8 billion in economic activity from agricultural trade. This made it the perfect setting to launch a year-long, multi-city campaign focused on supporting our nation's small and medium-sized businesses as they face the many challenges of global trade.

Alyssa Ybanez, the 2012 Mountain Valley League offensive MVP, transferred to Los Osos along with 6-foot-1 Aquinas middle blocker Delaney Goodrich. They will join a core of players at Los Osos including the reigning Daily Bulletin Player of the Year, Cal-bound senior Ashten Smith-Gooden and Ashley Kaylor, a first team All-Valley selection last season.

2012 All-Valley volleyball team: Los Osos earns Player, Coach of Year
Los Osos outside hitter Ashten Smith-Gooden (pictured above) claimed Player of the Year honors for the 2012 All-Valley volleyball team after helping her team to the CIF finals for the first time in school history. Los Osos coach Franco Macchia also reaped the benefits of the Grizzlies best ever season, earning Coach of the Year honors.
MEGHAN BUZZERIO, Chino Hills
The sophomore burst onto the scene with 532 kills in just 29 games to lead the Huskies to a playoff berth. The outside hitter also had 228 digs, 33 aces and 26 solo blocks to go along with a kill percentage of 39 for a Chino Hills team that posted an 18-11 record.
ERIN CLARK, Ayala
The Ayala setter had a spectacular year with 617 assists for the Bulldogs, who finished second in the Sierra League behind St. Lucy's, the No. 1 seed in the CIF-SS Division 1A playoffs. The junior was instrumental in the team's turnaround from a fifth-place finish in league in 2011 to second in 2012.
ARDEN DAVIS, St. Lucy's
The senior libero, a member of two CIF-SS championship teams during her tenure, totaled 308 digs this season and earned All-CIF honors in Division 1A. Davis helped the Regents win a fourth consecutive Sierra League championship and a No. 1 playoff seed.

"I had been eyeing these all summer and I found them on sale in my local DSW. I'm not sure I would have bought them full price b/c of the quirky owls all over them, but I love the colors and couldn't resist the price. Luckily I live in FL and can wear sandals all year long! They are pretty comfortable since they are a wedge, and I'm sure I'll get a lot of use out of them."

Super cute and trendy
"I saw these shoes on clearance in the store and nearly got them but chose a pair of boots instead. When I happened to go back at a later date the shoes were still there so it was meant to be. I'm always hesitant to buy platform shoes because they hurt my feet but these are quite comfortable for the style. I have a thing for birds so that's why these initially jumped out at me. The print is super cute and animal prints are very in right now. These look best with a solid color sun dress or solid colors in general because of the print but they are so cute on and i'm happy I got them."

The GloMax®-Multi Jr Single-Tube Multimode Reader was retired as of November 1, 2016. All GloMax®-Multi Jr accessories will continue to be available, as will instrument service, until November 1, 2021, pending part availability.
We kindly invite you to review your current and future laboratory needs relative to your GloMax®-Multi Jr Instrument. If you have any questions or would like an assessment based on your laboratory and budgetary needs, contact your local Promega Sales Representative today or learn more about our new products, trade-in programs and service agreement options at: www.promega.com...

We kindly invite you to review your current and future laboratory needs relative to your GloMax®-Multi Jr Instrument. If you have any questions or would like an assessment based on your laboratory and budgetary needs, contact your local Promega Sales Representative today or learn more about our new products, trade-in programs and service agreement options at: www.promega.com/detection-home
The GloMax®-Multi Jr Single-Tube Multimode Reader is designed to provide the utmost flexibility. In addition to high performance, the GloMax®-Multi Jr blends user-friendly operation and a small footprint with flexible purchasing options. The result of this design is an instrument with superior performance that is easy to use, affordable and can be customized to your laboratory's needs.
The GloMax®-Multi Jr with a Luminescence Module is designed to deliver performance equivalent to dedicated single-tube luminometers while also offering the flexibility of a multimode reader. The GloMax®-Multi Jr has a sensitivity of 1 × 10–18 moles of luciferase and >5 logs of dynamic range. This dynamic range is more than adequate to cover common luminescence applications, thus reducing the need to dilute samples.
The GloMax®-Multi Jr with a Fluorescence Module is designed to deliver both high performance and user flexibility. To achieve high performance, each Fluorescence Module utilizes powerful light-emitting diodes (LEDs) as excitation sources. LED usage increases sensitivity by fully exciting the fluorophore and reducing nonspecific light leakage, a problem often found when using broad-spectrum light sources. Four standard fluorescence optical kits are available for purchase, or contact us to purchase a custom optical kit.
The GloMax®-Multi Jr with the Absorbance Module provides measurements that are highly sensitive and cover a wide dynamic range. The absorbance channel has a large reading range of 0–4 OD with an accuracy that deviates less than 0.7%.
The GloMax®-Multi Jr has three optional filter paddles with factory-installed filters for measuring 560, 600 and 750nm. These filters accommodate the most common protein assays. Filter paddles can be exchanged easily in seconds. In addition, custom filter paddles can be made readily for nonstandard applications. The GloMax®-Multi Jr is designed to be put into use right from the box without the need to read a manual or obtain special training. To achieve this plug-and-play usability, the GloMax®-Multi Jr combines a color touch screen with an intuitive user interface. The interface makes running samples and viewing data fast and simple while also maintaining the flexibility needed for advanced or custom protocols. The GloMax®-Multi Jr is a modular instrument that fits easily into most budgets. Purchase the technology or modes that you need now, and add on to the system later as your needs expand. For example, the GloMax®-Multi Jr can be purchased as a Luminometer. Then Fluorescence and/or Absorbance Modules can be purchased and added later. There's no service call or downtime. With the modular design, changing technologies is as easy as snapping in a module and restarting the instrument.

List of Allotments to be renewed
An interactive map and more information about other grazing permits or allotments can be found at: http://www.blm.gov/ras
Before including address, phone number, email-address, or any other personal identifying information in your comments, be advised that your entire comment, including personal identifying information, may be made publicly available at any time. While individuals may request that the BLM withhold personal identifying information from public view, the BLM cannot guarantee it will be able to do so. If you wish us to withhold your personal information you must state this prominently at the beginning of your comment. We will make all submissions from organizations or businesses, available for public disclosure in their entirety.
The KFO manages its rangelands to meet the needs of the local ranchers who depend on their BLM grazing permits to sustain their ranching operations and the general public as part of the multiple use philosophy.
The KFO is also dedicated to bring all allotments into compliance with the Standards for Public Land Health in Colorado. Rest rotation and deferred rotation grazing systems have been implemented on the livestock grazing allotments wherever practical. Rotation grazing systems have proven beneficial to the range resource and will maintain or improve the condition of the range and allow the native vegetation to continue to dominate the region. Proper livestock grazing management is also a strong deterrent to the establishment or expansion of weeds.
Goals of Range Monitoring Program:
The following are examples of rangeland projects used to help improve the grazing opportunities and land health:

U.S. Minimum Wage Rates
As of January 1, 2015
Find a list of the federal and state minimum wage rates in the United States, according to state name in alphabetical order and the dollar value as of January 2015.
NOTE: A state cannot reduce the requirements of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). Most states have adopted minimums, although many simply track the FLSA. Others are broader, for example, covering workers not covered under the FLSA or setting higher minimums than the federal rate. Some states set a state minimum lower than the federal rate. In that case, all workers in the state who are covered by the FLSA must receive the federal minimum. When state laws require a higher wage, employers must pay at least that higher rate to all workers covered by the state law, whether or not they also are covered by the federal law. Some minimum wage rates in this table apply only to large companies or employers with a certain dollar amount of receipts. Smaller companies may either have to pay a different minimum wage (which is not listed here) or there may be no minimum wage requirement at all.
1Does not have state minimum wage law.

The pictures were taken from different vantage points and his eyes turned turquoise green with flash so I had to follow a tutorial to fix pets eyes on them. Whew this was quite an experience!
When we wre younger, we had lots of Skippers. I love these little dogs and your layout is lovely and brought back lots of memories. TFS..
What a darling little dog! You can see his personality shining through. Your journaling is very expressive. I like the photo arrangement, and the title is great. Very sweet!
What a cute layout, and great photos of your dog (no reflective evil eyes like so many pet photos!) Sweet journaling, thanks for sharing.
Oh my goodness what a wonderful layout - I love the way you did your title, your wonderful journaling AND all of your precious photos!
The different vantage points work so well to help tell the story of your little friend, I think I like the one with him up on the bed looking down at you best! Your journalling is lovely and I am super impressed with how you recoloured the eyes!
I love the different vantage points you used! I think we get a better picture of your adorable dog. I like how you arranged the photos -- and love your journaling!
What a great dog! -- and layout. Love all the different camera angles. Well done.
Apparently, your sweet doggie likes having his picture taken! Wonderful variation in your vantage points. And a great job on fixing his eyes! Pets always seem to have a glow when there pics are taken.
What a cutie! Great to have a buddy like that around. Fun LO
