Come on, Toby. It can't possibly matter which side you pee on. Oh it matters. It matters.

Trust me. It matters.

I Love You

Do you have a student in your life who is starting back to in-person classes? If so, send him or her to school in style with this Cecil the Cat Lunch Bag. Happy Cecil smiles as he tells your student “I love you” in American Sign Language. Bag is insulated to keep food cool during the day. If Cecil gets dirty, you can throw him in the wash (unlike real kitties which object strenuously to baths).

Cecil the Cat Lunch Bag is available from my shop.

Toasters and Magnets

I wouldn't mind so much if it were a picture of us.

Finding work has been next to impossible for me since most places around here are still closed. I wondered if perhaps a car magnet advertising pet portrait services might get some attention.

Toby says the fact that we drive a toaster might distract from any messages on the door.

Toby Catches Something

Wow, these snowflakes are so beautiful!

I wish I could show them to mommy. I bet she would like them.

Gee, Toby, what's this? It's a snowflake bouquet!

Snowflake bouquets taste almost as good as the regular ones!

The Swimming Hole

In real life puppies aren’t allowed to come here, so we’ve found a way around the rules!

As long as it’s not a bath, I’m game.

Shoveling Snow

This is why I have lower back problems…because my boys are such good “helpers”.

Bear Paw Quilt

This rustic Bear Paw Quilt will keep you warm on cold winter nights. Bear Paw Quilt would fit nicely at the cabin by the lake or thrown over the couch. The pattern is geometric, and the colors are bold yet earthy. The overall effect is of paw prints in snow. On sunny days, the colors look so inviting it is hard not to lie down on them and take a nap.

Bear Paw Quilt is available from my shop.

The New Restaurant

It is a dark time. Across the state, businesses have been shut down for want of customers. So many restaurants have closed that underground, speakeasy-style eateries have popped up away from the watchful eyes of health department.

The boys’ beloved Sniff City has become….(Dun…dun…duhhhhn)… Hellmont.

My idea is better. No MINE is! Mom!!
Which of us has the best name for our new restaurant?
My idea's the best. It's the Diarrhea Trattoria!
Wait, does this place serve or cause diarrhea? Your choice! Oh dear, are those raisins and Tootsie Rolls on the bar? Well, at one time...
Forget about him. It's my idea that's the best.
It's the Copra...CopraphaGIa! The hottest spot for diarrhea! At the Copra,CopraphaGIa..Poopin' and noshin' are always in fahshion...Fashion? Yes, dahling...
Do you really think anyone will want to eat here? How is your dessert menu? Do you serve Poopsicles or Fudge Dragons? I'd like a meal to help me clear a room. I need assistance with my abstract expressionism.

Not that dogs eat poo or anything…

Well, only if it’s there.

Tumbleweeds

Ew! For heaven't sake woman, have some shame! What? I've been in quarantine almost a year. Nobody sees me.
So we're not "somebody"? For the purposes of this argument, no.
Why is it acceptable that you guys are all furry and not me? 'Cause we're adorable.

See? I told you we were adorable!
