Happy Thanksgiving!

Hello there!

On the Thanksgiving weekend, we had a relaxing walky

on the trail along the Humber River, west of the city.

It's the time adult salmons returns to the river to spawn the eggs.  

Many salmons jumped out from the water and

tried really hard to make their way to upsteam in the half 
'man-made' envirment.

We saw two made it and human spectators applaused! 

We didn't take pictures but many 'mean' humans tried to catch the salmons 

in the shallow water. :( :(
Mom didn't think it was fair!

It was a very warm weekend and

humans and doggies weren't the only ones who wanted to feel some warm fresh air.

.... but Ms Racoon!

All humans left her alone after taking some photos.

And this brave racoon was approaching me!

MMmmm... shall I say Hello closely?

Now it's time to take a nap in the car.

Same evening, The chef cooked a wonderful dinner.

This is Tuna steak with tomatoes, garlic and fresh basil.

There is a big chunk of tuna under chopped tomatoes.

Mom, the assistant, prepared some roasted veggies.

Butternut squash with sage and cinnamon turned out very well.  

It was not a big dinner but we enjoyed every single bit!

This is 'After' the tuna steak was done in the Big Green Egg.  

You can't see basil but we felt its aroma.  Yum!

Mom's plate.

Humans forgot to serve Stuffed Scallops.  

Da~

We shared of tinny tiny bit of festive food.

Happy Thanisgiving, everyone!

The fist signs of autumn

We enjoyed a very nice & long walky this morning.

The air was a bit chilly but confortable.  The blue sky looked really nice.

Look at the clouds! 

They point to the top of CN Tower!

Can you see the tower far behind me?

It was nice that the grass at the park wasn't wet at all.
Nothing worse than walking on the wet and soggy ground, right?!?

(I, Pinot don't care!)

So I coudn't stop hopping around the big hill!
Call me Bunny Momo!

Who said I am 10?!?

Mom was wondering why the clouds seemed familiar to her...

Sniff.. sniff...

What? 

My Bad Hair Day?!?

I need to call my groomer girl!

I, Momo felt something different in the air.

Ah-ha! 

Leaves started to change colour!

I have a very good sence of smell.

Soon, the ground will be covered by this!

Happy first Autumn-ish Day!

Facebook? What?!?

Hello friends! We have a small annoucement!

When I, Momo started blogging nine years ago, there were many doggy bloggers

out there but most of our friends have moved their blogs to facebook.

To mark my 10th barkday,

mom decided to create our blog facebook page.

We're really not so sure how it goes...

because....

We know it won't be anything spectacular!! hahaha~

Just like she prefers CD over 'digital' music, we like our old fashioned blog better!

Momo & Pinot/J & R

It's my turn!

Happy Barkday to me~

Tomorrow, we'll have a BBQ Chicken Pawty!!

Can't wait!

Happy Barkday, Momo!!

A long long summer school holiday is just about to finish.

Yesterday, we took our bro to our morning walky as usual.

Then he told us that mom and he had a good plan.

Making a  carrot, apple sauce and oats birthday cake together!

First bro shredded two carrots then mixed with eggs and apple sauce. 

He had lots of fun mixing dry and wet ingredients while sampling them a lot.  bol

He said the most important job is done!

Oh bro..., you make us cry!

Let's make some cake decorations-peanuts butter cookies!

Making a big dough is like being in the art class!

The decorations are done.

Our kitchen is so busy today.... we wonder why....

Zzzzzz.... 

A cake base and decorations...

Mom and bro cut the cake base...

Then bro was putting some cream cheese and apple sauce icing.

In the meanwhile, daddy was preparing something special. 

Chicken! 

Whao, a pink bone!

Oh bro!!

BBQ chicken! Drooooooling!!

OMD, the cake! 

Cheeeese! 

More cheeeeeeeeeese!!

So dinner first...

Then cake time!

Mom and dad said it's hard to believe I, Momo is now ten year young.

That said they've been together over ten years! :) :)

Happy Anniversary, mom and dad!

New Doggie Vest

Daddy finally found this Salus Skippy vests after a long search. 

Last night we did test run at this super doggie friendly beach,

Cherry Beach, Toronto.

The vest fit us very well.  

Unlike other vests we had looked at, this one has paddling under the tummy

for optional buoyancy. 

I feel safe.... even thought I probably won't swim at all so much.

It's time for fetch in the water!

My frisbee is always popular among bigger doggies.  

You may remember this post (link) from July 2013.

Last night, new friends jumped into the water

to follow my frisbee as usual.

"Let's go get it!"

Opps, wrong way!

Oh wait... where is my frisbee?!?

Can you believe this doggie?

He had a huge stick in his mouth but got

my brisbee, too!

Impressive!

(But I need to have it back, please!)

I did more swimming and made sure this vest worked well.

We wonder if new adventure is waiting for us.

Oh yes, I lost my beloved frisbee after this

picture was taken.  It went too far to swim and it was washed away!!!

Daddy!!!!!

The breeze was refreshing.
