My Day?

Hello good pups and peeps of Blogville! Macy Blue here.

My momma lady person keeps telling me today is MY day. I'm apparently four today. It was never something I was told about before...I was in jail on my last one...so I'm most perplexed about her dancing around and singing ( she really shouldn't sing..she lacks my range!)

But she says I will have a pressie to open again...I'm still not sure I've recovered from having to open one at Christmas.  And she has promised me time with my beloved bone...

And best of all, we get to got out for a hamburger this weekend! Now that I can get behind!

This is me and my pal Ruby of Rottrover's at my very first hamburger Black and Tan ladies lunch! 

All That and a Bag of Chips

 

Something Silly

Between my 20 day gig teaching emotionally challenged boys, a lawsuit on my rental property and taxes.... I feel like I have to remind myself to take a breath! There is no time for anything extra lately... like beadmaking.


But I thought I would share my favorite recent bead. It's not perfect and that wasn't the point. I've always wanted to make myself a rottweiler. But I really had no idea where to begin. A few months back I signed up for a workshop on critter beads with Judy Carlson. I wanted to take the class to be able to sculpt some of the more requested beads for the kids in the Beads of Courage Program... it's a charity that allows kids facing life challenging illness to be able to tell the story of their medical journey in beads.

At the end of class, Judy pushed me to try a rott and I did! It was one of the hardest beads I've made because black glass and mahogany glass both look identical in the flame!!! But I did it and I love him!!!

I have no plans or desires to be a dog bead artist...there are plenty of good ones out there...but this one is perfect for me!!

Product Review: Evanger's Freeze Dried Beef Tongue

Hello there good peeps and pups of Blogville. Macy Blue here. I'm back for another review on behalf of Chewy.com.

Momma has been one sick puppeh lately so I had to prod her a bit to get this done! O.K. Momma, stop whining about being on Death's doorstep and get this box open!

Chewy sent us Evanger's Freeze Dried Beef Tongue. Mom tried to take a picture of the box of tongues...but MY tongue kept  getting in the way! Tee Hee! Open 'em open 'em!!! Openopenopen!!!

Momma, I think I'm going nutballs crazy!!!! Gimme!!!

Oh yummy nom nom nom!!

Those were deeeeelish Momma!!! I know you like the peeps to know about the ingredients so take it away Momma! I'm just gonna keep hoovering the ground:

Creekhiker here: I'm a long time fan of Evanger's products  having discovered their very affordable and top quality canned food in our locally owned pet shop. But I had never seen these treats and hadn't even noticed them on Chewy's website even though we regularly buy their Grain Free Jerky Treats there.  I'm always impressed by the quality and the price. And the Freeze Dried Beef Tongue Treats are no exception. 

Here are the ingredients from Chewy: Beef Tongue.  THAT'S IT!

My ONE caveat: these are very "fragrant." You KNOW they are in the house. I  say this while having a nasty head cold. I can't smell much!   I had to put the plastic box inside a zip top bag just to keep BOTH of us from going nutballs crazy!

As usual, Macy Blue gets the final word. 

Thanks Momma... what else is there to say?? I LOVE 'EM!!

Macy Blue would give Eveanger's Freeze Dried Beef Tongue eight paws up if she could! I give it two thumbs up and one closed nose!

Neither Creekhiker nor Macy Blue were compensated for this review. Mr Chewy sent one box of Evanger's Freeze Dried Beef Tongue Treats for Macy Blue to devour... or not.

Why Did I Want A Sofa Dog Again?

Three days ago, without rhyme or reason, Macy decided she was an affectionate girl! Only once has she run from me while petting her! She's come up on the sofa and sought my hand. She's stayed for longer and longer times. And tonight, she has cuddled with me on the sofa all evening for only the second time in nine months!

 I don't know what brought this on...

We had an insane weekend. Our hiking buddy, Buster got trapped high up a mountain ridge for about 30 hours..in freezing rain. The whole pack had quite the adventure rescuing him - he's home safe now!  And Macy was up on the mountain once with me during one of the rescue attempts. 

I don't know if it was seeing my concern for her buddy or feeling how very upset I was, but suddenly, she's far more loving! And I'm eating it up for as long as it lasts - even if it means I have sit hanging off the sofa!
