BRUIN

This is Bruin, my son Mike's best friend.
Mike sent me a few photo's the other day. I know most folks have pets so I thought I would put a photo of Bru on here.
He looks like a bear in person he is a big husky dog. We do not know what he is exactly except he is half black lab. He only had one sibling who was on the small side and he nicely took up the rest of the womb. He is very sweet and gentle and loves people. But he does look intimidating and if you did not know him nor he you, well you would probably not want to mess with him for obvious reasons.

This a food blog and here I am posting a dog photo. Truthfully we have had some tasty meals but nothing out of the ordinary. We had a great roast with all the trimmings and then we had taco's with the leftovers. We had a really good pizza this past weekend. Not that I made it that is one thing I do not do. It is not difficult to make but I like to go out for pizza and I need to have some down time away from the kitchen. So you get the idea there has been nothing inspiring to blog about.
We are both trying to watch portion control and stay away from deserts. That part is not hard for us but the problem lies in the fact that I like to bake however I have been banned for doing that for a while.

Hopefully weather permitting we will be seeing Mike and Bruin and my brother this coming weekend. There are snow showers forecast and possibly ice so we must keep an eye on the weather.
Once again I will cater a meal to my brothers. I have a yummy casserole that is easy to put together. The camera will go along so if opportunity arises I will take photo's. Maybe we will go to the river and hang out if the weather is agreeable.

My late morning walk was so brisk and fresh I smelled like line dried laundry when I returned home. The sky is deep and clear today and hardly a breeze is stirring. I am so longing to sit on the deck and read in the sun but it is not quite time for that yet. I will admit I did try it but it was just to chilly though looked so inviting. I will be counting off the days now until springs appears at our doorstep and new life pushes up through the ground.

I will be getting acquainted with Jack Thomas and Audrey Christine on the 2nd of March. I will be spending the day with Jana and Diana and their new babies. Now how fun is that going to be? These two new mommy's will be chattering and sharing stories nonstop. We will meet up at Dina's house in Hubbard OR. Not quite sure where that is but I know it is north of Salem and south of Woodburn. I will mapquest! An adventure for old Auntie Zo.

Well no news really and there are things I need to attend to this afternoon.
Till later
