Excellant Final "General" meeting/Pot Luck @ Rouge valley quilt guild tonite. The "Beyond the 9 patch" challenge quilts were on display & we heard the Judges picks for 1st, 2cd & 3rd in the 3 categories. They were All sew Beautiful!!!!

I made my Rhubarb cake & strawberry sauce - the plate was Empty & I had quite a few comliments on it. Thank gawd for Old cook books - LOL

I'm organizing a workshop for RVQG in September with Renske Helmuth. Couldn't believe that Renske makes sew many quilts within the Menonite community. I was told today her Applique quilt was auctioned for $44,000.oo that's Amazing. A few of the ladies from RVQG worked hard to get 43 division for "FREE".....this will help keep the workshop price low - only $35.

* Took Propain & BBQ for 1 Hour walk to Pet shop, grocery store & for a walk around the neighbourhood. Propie was really good & only growled @ 1 person. Hoping this new approach will work out his Attitude problems - fingers crossed

DOGZ

Auntie Eva visited & put BBQ thru her paces. The dogz are eager to please & reinforces Auntie Eva's status. It did Not help Eva when she woke to BBQ puking thru the nite.....I don't think Anyone got any sleep after all the drama. Come back Soon BFF - LOL

DOGZ

PROPAIN just started his new Obedience class today - the 1st one didn't work - LOL. He did veri well & surprised ALL of us. He didn't go Bug-eyed & listened to everything. He managed to walk around the store a few times & remain calm. He doesn't see many people as we don't want him friendly....nothing worse than a farm dog that rushes to greet strangers. We bought some books for "Problem" dogz, to give us more ideas on how to proceed. As our Vet said....it doesn't matter if the dog bites from aggression or fear - it would still be a bite. We have only a few friends who Propane is comfortable with. Auntie Eva ( who was wise enough to visit often when Propain was a puppy ) & John Lober, a dog person from way back ( he brings cookies for Propain every time he visits ) I felt bad for leaving BBQ home, but Propain needs to attend class on his own. Here's hoping he will "Pass" this course!

Hubby walking around the garden 1st thing in the morning.....Huey is following closely because he knows dad will pick a tomato from the garden & feed it to Huey....then Huey will run to his girls & show them the 1 carat gift he has for them.

Puddin', Lady & Brownie @ about 1 week old. Puddin' would Jump into my hand every time I went to change their water. She was a CRESTED Indian Runner duck.....sweet as honey.

Ahhhnold & Precious, Propane& BBQ, & CC my "Cute Chicken"

I Should be washing floors but instead I am watching my Indian Runner Ducks <> It's a HOT day - they run from a kiddie pool to the pond for a swim( & then race back again)
