Election day
9:45 AM EST—It’s morning on election day. Some major fog has rolled in over the Hudson. I suppose because it’s a warmer day. Temps are currently at about 54°F out and looks sunny up above. So, hopefully this blanket will burn off by noon. Or quicker, in time for a mid-autumn ride with the top […]

Very good dogs eat poulet
Sometimes two dogs, especially two poodles, swap notes in misbehaving. Or the same two poodles work out a new routine in waking someone (me) up. Or they learn a new song that they perform in sneezes and coughs to get one’s (that would be me again) attention. Sometimes, they teach each other to sit and […]

Quiet labor
I spent the weekend in town, namely because my car’s still at the body shop, and also because the new roommate moved in yesterday. So there was much to do and I’m still doing it at time of tapping this. But the piles are subsiding and I’m making progress in attacking the dust bunnies that […]

Weddings
These have been an interesting past few days. After the autopilot mode that found me the perfect dress and an eBay auction win that sent the perfect pair of shoes into the snail post on their merry way to me, I find I will indeed attend a wedding I’ve been putting off accepting the invitation […]

Thrifty? Prandium.
This here was transcribed and cleaned up from ink marks in my notebook.. Wow. What I am eating for my midday meal today. I must ink this. Out of pocket (mine), I maybe spent about thirty cents for my afternoon meal, mostly for the price of the condiments. The meal consists of a bowl of […]

A celebratory seltzer
This seltzer is dedicated to a recently minted peanut. And to the little peanut Q, an IOU for seltzers—in a cone or in a dish, whichever as you wish—as soon as your little hands can hold them. Buen provecho..

Poodle snacks
Who would have thought an old, stale whole wheat and blueberry bagel would incite food aggression in two generally amiable poodles? I think I’m onto something with this though. I don’t have a local spot to compost so that’s five ounces less food waste into the great trash heap. That’s about it for today. I’m […]

DIY: Dog sweaters
Before shutting down to lay me down for some shut eye, I came upon this article about two kooks who knit their dogs hair into sweaters. I’m excited to find this, but then disappointed to learn yet another idea is not original. Such is life and art. For the past four years, and fifth coming […]

Birthday prandium..
..for a little poodle. How does a blind sword wielding enlightened one—Bodhi Zatoichi—who turned two years old and is now a man dog spend a birthday? Begin with getting his pack leader a café con leche before a hike and afternoon spent in a park full of woofs to chase, bark at, and make small […]

Lyrical poulet
Recently my writing was compared to song lyrics. So in honor of this fine insult and its holy source, here’s a little diddy for you and you and you.. My Poulet By Fifi Collective, dedicated to the Temptations and Sin Gotham’s got clouds on a cloudy day. When it’s cold outside we want to play […]

My sister will love this one
This is dedicated to my sister. When we swam in the family pond as tadpoles, she told me she’d go through my things and laugh at my lists. Well, I’m listing less now and this comes kind of late into new year days, but what the hay. For my sister.. Eat the skins of root […]
