Artist Spotlight: Wry & Ginger

Wrapping up the “Shopping “Home for the Holidays”” series this week is local Etsy artist Wry & Ginger. As her site says, she makes “seriously funny handmade cards in original designs.” Shortly after dog-sitting Tofu one weekend a few months back, she came out with a new line of cards called “Doxie Love is Peculiar.” [...]

Daydream believer

Has anyone else been having trouble sleeping lately? I don’t know if it’s the weather, the time change or what but I feel like I’ve been on auto-pilot this past week due to lack of z’s. As a result, random thoughts have come to into my head. Sort of like the following: AliasGrace: I think [...]

More specifically, Ben‘s dogs who visited for an extended long weekend and subsequently won over my heart despite one of them being sick the whole time.

Today on the dog blog we look at the age-old, instinctual habit of scent-rolling. For anyone who doesn’t have a dog in their life, this behaviour is defined by the disgusting need for a canine to smear really strong smelling things on it’s body (the source of which is usually something horrific). But what does [...]

It’s my (birthday) party and I’ll guilt trip if I want to…

So, here’s the deal. While Ben at No Ordinary Rollercoaster is offering to post scantily clad pictures of himself should 50 people contribute funds to Donate4Dachshunds by midnight tomorrow, I’m throwing a good old fashioned guilt trip your way instead. Didn’t know it was my birthday? I’m hurt. Now throw some cash at puppies to [...]
