Good morning! It’s Friday and I could not be happier. My husband has been traveling all week and arrives home tonight, I cannot wait to sit with a glass of wine and fill each other in on our weeks activities. Not to mention that it seems as if this week has been so l-o-n-g. I…

Good morning! I hope that your week has been great. Mine has been busy, busy, busy. I am ready to do nothing except relax and take long naps with my new and old pups. Life with a 13 year old dog and a 6 month old is crazy to put it mildly. They both have…

Good morning and Happy Valentine’s Day! I hope this morning finds you warm, cozy and with electricity.

Good morning! I hope that your week was fabulous. Mine was a little crazy, no make that a lot crazy so this week all of my favorites about about soothing the soul and finding a little comfort. Peanutbutter Pup Candy from Gearhearts Chocolate is always a great place to start to when you are feeling…
