65 degrees and sunny

I don't know why Matt complains about Houston weather. It's just perfect today! Duchess is sitting outside with her eyes closed just soaking up the sun. ahhhhh...
Lest you forget how loooong Duchess is - here's a good picture of her. Unfortunately, her back leg is still not back to normal. She's putting more weight on it, but still hops around. Quite honestly, she hasn't slowed down a bit. She still tugs on the leash when we go on walks. She seems unaware that her leg is even hurt! Dare I say that ignorance is bliss? I'm not sure if that corresponds to dog language...maybe dogs just take everything in stride. We should all learn from her.
See that lovely hallo effect around Duchess? It's her new home-made dog food! I got a recipe from my mom. It extended Pebbles life by at least 3 years so we'll see how Dutcher does with it. She loves the food and ate it all! On the other hand, Penny picked out all the green and yellow beans...which was very annoying. I added them to ice cream and she still refused to eat the beans, so no more home-made food for her!
We hope you have a great New Year's celebration! I'm fixing a black-eyed pea dip to bring us all good luck in 2009!
