Living out loud in the Carolinas

On the way home from the vet, modeling their new Puppia harnessesI took the pugs to the vet for their annual exams yesterday. It was a good time to try out their new Puppia harnesses. They’d both outgrown the old harnesses. These harnesses are great. They are much easier to get on and off and the pugs seem to really like them. They are much softer than the traditional nylon harnesses, and Kea’s used to rub her little armpits and they’d get red. I bought them here and the shipping was fast. So far I’m really happy with them. I thought I’d also take this time to show off their new skull collar“>skull collars. Kiki and Molly both needed new collars and the basic nylon ones were $9 at Target. I grabbed a couple of those thinking I couldn’t afford the cute ones. Then I spied these for $3.99 each. Woohoo! They are leather with embroidered skulls with green sequins for eyes. You may notice some orange in the pic. That’s spaghetti o juice that Joey splat on Molly when he was feeding the pugs his lunch (we stopped by their house on the way home from the vet). So it turns out Molly is fat (22.5 lbs) and bald (some hair never grew in on her underside- apparently dogs can have pattern baldness run in families too) and Kiki’s allergies have gotten worse. So now she’s on a bigger daily pill. Oy. Kiki’s weight is fine (16 lbs).
I picked up a nasty head cold somewhere (in May?!?) so my foggy brain is all over the place and I’m having a hard time wrapping up this post. So I’ll leave you with a new tea love. I had a cup of Perfectly Pear White Tea by Celestial Seasonings when I got my hair cut last and I just loved it. I found some at Bloom and have been making it into iced tea. Very nice. Go get you some.

    Mmmmm, I love that Pear White tea!!! I have never tried it iced, but that sounds very yummy. Do you know that Celestial Seasonings is a Colorado company? Their factory is in Boulder, and they offer free tours. It is really fun!

    One more thing….Jason and I visited the first Ikea in North America (according to him) earlier this week, and I thought of you!
