After a day of play, brother and sister were pooped pooches.
What a great rescue from the pound. They are in a wonderful home and a family will get to remain together their whole lives.
I love a happy ending :)

MCF had previously told you all about our visit to our friends house to see their new puppies. Here are a few more pictures for the archives.

Where the Sidewalk Ends...
There is a place where the sidewalk ends
And before the street begins,
And there the grass grows soft and white,
And there the sun burns crimson bright,
And there the moon-bird rests from his flight
To cool in the peppermint wind.
Let us leave this place where the smoke blows black
And the dark street winds and bends.
Past the pits where the asphalt flowers grow
We shall walk with a walk that is measured and slow,
And watch where the chalk-white arrows go
To the place where the sidewalk ends.
Yes we'll walk with a walk that is measured and slow,
And we'll go where the chalk-white arrows go,
For the children, they mark, and the children, they know
The place where the sidewalk ends.
—Shel Silverstein
I always loved Shel Silverstein's poems as a child. And while walking recently I found the magical spot.

A short while ago...
Sure, the trees are all bare and the ground is covered with leaves... but a short while ago I came across this wonderful sight. Desktop sized...

Tron ain't got nothin' on these deadly discs...
You heard it here first... Joseph Kosinski, who directed the Gears of War "Mad World" commercial as well as the Halo 3 "Starry Night" commercial AND the latest Hummer commercial will be working on two simultaneous projects! A remake of Logan's Run due out in 2010... and a remake of TRON also due in 2010.
Although the info for TRON is sparse, there was an article in Creativity... an industry trade magazine, linking him to the project.

The meat-a-balls...
I used:
A pound and a half of ground beef
2 eggs
Diced onion
2 cloves of crushed garlic
3 pieces of toast soaked in milk and crumbled
2 cups of seasoned breadcrumbs
Salt and pepper
Italian seasoning
Mozzarella, cubed
Mix all ingredients except the mozzarella in a bowl. Form meatballs and push a cube of mozzarella into the center of each, closing up the hole. Use "Pam" or other spray oil to lightly coat the bottom of a baking dish. Place meatballs in baking dish and bake at 350° for 35-40 minutes.

Dinner for two...
I said I would... so...
Here are the veggies in the oil.
Breadcrumbs...
...carefully roasted in a skillet.
The finished meal... before I finished it.
And, yes... that is mozzarella oozing from the center of the meatball.
Oh, that carnival squash tasted fantastic with a little brown sugar and turmeric.

Belated one year...
Oh my... My one year blog anniversary passed on August 31st... and I didn't even realize it!
My "daily" "photo" posting journey began on March 1st 2007... hopefully I'll celebrate in 2008.

Carnival squash...
I saw this in the produce aisle.
Tomorrow, I will split it in half and bake it at 350° F for 40 minutes.
It will compliment my vegetable Aglio Et Olio dinner.
Aglio Et Olio is a garlic and oil topping for pasta. Heat a few tablespoons of olive oil (virgin if your taste buds can handle it) in a deep pan or wok and add garlic (I use 5-6 cloves sliced in halves.) That with some salted water is pretty much it... but I add red pepper, zucchini and yellow squash to the oil and cover so that it keeps the moisture in.
While this is simmering I boil the water for the pasta. Add some oil to the water so the pasta won't stick together. Once boiling, add salt and take two or three ladles of the salted water and put it in with the vegetables in the wok. You can add a little salt, pepper or Italian seasoning to taste but it really isn't necessary.
Cook the pasta so it is al dente (firm but not hard.) While this is cooking put some breadcrumbs in a skillet over low to medium heat and sauté till golden brown (they can burn quickly so keep an eye on 'em.)
Strain the pasta and cover with the vegetable Aglio Et Olio. Sprinkle the roasted breadcrumbs on top and top with parmigiano reggiano.
I'll try to remember to take a picture of the finished meal... well, before I finish it ;)

When a child is lost...
I saw this on a stroll through a cemetery. The loss of a child has to be the hardest thing for a parent to live through.

The term "resonators" comes to mind... but that's not right.
And a detail of the above picture.

Ok, so I got on an electrical kick...
Just before sunset with the sun to my back.
I think I got some cool pictures for the next week or so. Let me know what you think.

And this bird you can not change...
If I leave here tomorrow
Would you still remember me?
For I must be traveling on, now,
'Cause there's too many places I've got to see.
But, if I stayed here with you, girl,
Things just couldn't be the same.
'Cause I'm as free as a bird now,
And this bird you can not change.
Lord knows, I can't change.
—Lynyrd Skynyrd

Step into my lair...
...said the spider to the fly.
This was not a set up shot. And the fly flew away after I took the shot. Them two must have been called to a "sit down" to discuss their differences.

8 weeks...
Most of the pups are in their new homes by now. One is even living with her three year old half sister. I really think she knew right away that the new pup was a relative. She probably smelled her mama on the pup because she wagged her tail, groomed the new puppy and played with her right away :)
Stalkin' like a BC should...
I have a filthy mouth...
