NEW Tablet computer

finally broke down and bought a tablet . . . Vizio. Love at first sight. I think these little toys have a real future. Even with the 8" screen it is great. Watched a movie downloaded Angry Birds and an office suite. Life is good. Pix is in Old San Juan.

Toodles the Shih Tzu

Back home! Great reunion with my person. Now I can sleep well at nite. I didn't even get a lousy tee shirt from Arecibo. All that seemed to come back was a bottle of booze and trinkets for people. I'm sort of bummed out about it. But, what can a dog do? Getting a nice thick winter coat on me now. Just in time to go to Santa Fe for the holidays. Maybe I'll get to run around in the snow, make yellow snow, and get yelled at for dragging my dirty paws into the house.

Arecibo

Just a quick note about my current position in the world. The picture will tell all!

Toodles the Shih Tzu

Well, we're back after a small hiatus. Halloween was kinda sucky as noone would take me trick or treating. and I got all dressed up for the occasion in my pirate outfit. However in the desert there isn't much call for pirates, matey, not much call at all.

Rest of the stuff around here is the same. Getting along better with the cat. She has learned that if she runs, I will run after her. If she slinks, I could care less.

Now here is the pix of the fruit bowl going to the party tonight:

Toodles the Shih Tzu

The big news of the day is Wiley Coyote. Roadrunner (praire chicken dinner) doesn't suit anymore. Seems the wild coyotes prefer Mexican food. Chihuahua appetizers seem to be the plat du jour. Rumors are rampant about Wiley and friends attacking small dogs and (horrors) munching them in front of their owners out for a potty walk.

Toodles got a new blue bandana from Sheplers. He is not too impressed and has slipped out of it twice.  Pix tomorrow.

Toodles the Shih Tzu

Very busy last night. Barking at the dinner guests - Then wagging tail to get pets. Such is the life of  a ferocious guard dog. Two different quiches, green salad and Pino Grigio. Peach and blueberry pie and chocolate cake for dessert. The quiches included a spinach, mushroom and bacon; and a Priscuitto, Shiitake and Leek (sort of a 'fusion' food thing). Worked out really well, although the guests may have not been as enthusiastic as I was about the dinner. Oh well! Recipes on request.
