One For Me, One For Tag...

I was so tickled to find that I'd won the drawing that Anne hosted on her blog, Fiona & Twig. I just love Anne, and have watched over the past year or so as she's found her true calling. Her photography is stunning, and she has an eye for finding the most wonderful ways to capture the world around her!

She was offering a "Dreaming of Junking" 2012 Calendar (with her work on the cover and inside!), and a new copy of Artful Blogging (which features an article she wrote, along with more of her own photography). I was surprised (and veeery happy) when she contacted me to let me know I'd won!! This is her original giveaway post.

I pored over the calendar, and am going back to the magazine time and again to soak in every gorgeous page. Thank you, Anne for picking me. I'm so grateful, and consider myself extra fortunate to be able to call you "friend".

On another note...I did what I said I was going to do yesterday. I baked Corgi biscuits to take to Tag today! I cut out corgi shapes, and baked every little leftover piece to make as many treats as possible!

We'll be on our way around ten this morning, and our appointment is to meet Mike and Tag at the Ranch at 1 pm. We'll probably be there early. (Ya think?)

In case you missed the link for the dog biscuit recipe, here it is one more time. (They're called "Boomer and LuLu's Peanut Butter Crunch Biscuits". Boomer and LuLu were featured on The Daily Corgi blog when they shared their recipe.) Everything is safe and good for dogs, and because I made them myself, I know exactly what's in them. I admit we tasted them, too. Handsome said they "stuck to the roof of his mouth". (giggling here) Granted we only tasted a corner of one.

I'm sure that Tag is going to love them, and it will be up to him whether or not he wants to share them with his friends. I'm sure that little minx, Ike (his roomie) will get at least one!

You're going to have to wait til Tuesday to see pictures and a video of The Boy, but I'll get my "Tag fix" very soon! I've gotta run. Time to turn toward Okeechobee.

Derailed...

I had so many plans for the past two days, but you know how it goes. You run an errand or two, come back home, start on something, get distracted, start on something else, and the next thing you know, it's time to make dinner and another day is in the archives.

That's how my last couple of days have gone. I've managed to finish...nothin'. zip. zero. nada.
I have spent what seems like forever joining two rows of granny squares to start assembling my cardigan. It's looking good, but it's not any further down the road than that. Am I a little frustrated? Uh, huh. It's ok. You know me. Never one to stay down, I'll pull up my socks (figuratively, of course. It's already too hot for socks!) and just keep after it. I can already tell it's going to be a neat sweater.
You might like to visit The Daily Corgi today, too. Fezzik would have been one year old today, and Laurie has put together a little memorial for him. It's meant to be happy, like he was, so please don't be sad. He made us laugh every day and I hope today's images make you smile at his memory.
