Here we go ’round the mulberry bush…
Kudos to Sue on her first post for Dogs on Thursday! Managing the group’s blog is now a group effort, and Sue was the brave soul who took on that first post. Thanks, Sue!
My own DoT post is a bit of a tale. When Mugsy died, I took his name tag and put it on a keyring with Fred’s tag. I was crushed when I realized it was missing just a few weeks later. I had no idea when or where I’d lost it, so imagine my surprise when I saw this in the Garden a couple of weeks ago:

How it got there, I don’t know. I’m calling it a miracle. The Knight suggested one of the girls found it and dropped it there, which is highly unlikely; of all the things they put in their mouths, metal ain’t one of them. Someone else suggested a bird, but I’m sticking with my own little miracle. I called Mugsy “Angel Boy” when he was younger, and I still talk to the boys and ask them to look out for the fur-girls. To say finding this warmed my heart is an understatement.
So, tea. This week’s topic is about sources/vendors. I’ll pick tea up most anywhere. I prefer loose tea, but tea bags have their place too. I mentioned my go-to-source on the other blog, but I also order a good little bit from Adagio. They have a neat custom blend section, and always send a free sample along of something.
I have another FO, so now I’m two reports behind. In the meantime, here’s Sissy rockin’ her new cowl, which she loves VERY much.
Gretchen will be in the office this afternoon, so I can take her to the vet for her last batch of puppy shots before tonight’s meeting. Perhaps some cuteness will happen…
Happy little Friday!




I am so glad you got Mugsy’s tag back. No matter how it happened. Yea for miracles.
I love Sissy’s cowl. She doesn’t try to take it off? g
I agree with you – it’s got to be a miracle. I’m glad he brought it back to you.
What a good thing to happen. I’m happy for you. Sissy looks great in her cowl. I’m afraid mine would eat it.
I’d say a miracle too…what a wonderful find! Just would make your heart sore! Love Sissy’s cowl…very stylin! I’ve gotta check out this Dogs on Thursdays…I thought at first it was something you just did!:)
I still love that story… and yes, Mugs IS an angel.
Sissy IS rockin’ the cowl – nice!
I think my first comment was eaten…
I still love that story and yes, you have a true angel there!
Sissy ROCKS the cowl!
I order tea from alltea or Harney and Sons. I’ll have to try your place! I love loose tea, but usually make do with bagged tea, because I’m usually in the middle of something. Love Sissy’s cowl. She needs it in January!
It is wonderful that you have the tag back. Keepsakes are very important.
Tears in my eyes for the boys!! I have no doubt they are looking out for one another and the girls.
Well, that was a jam-packed post! Why not a miracle? Why should it be “explained” away? Dogs like Mugsy ARE their own little miracles, I think.
Sissy looks very nice in her cowl. I think I’m going to make myself one too
I’ll go for miracle, too. just a little reminder that they are still there with you.
What a great story! I’m so glad that you found Mugsy’s name tag!!!
Sissy looks awesome in her new cowl!
It truly is a miracle. men! Thay always try to find logic:)
Love Miss Sissy sporting that cowl. Looks quite lovely on the girl.
I’m so glad you found the tag! Sissy looks FABULOUS in her fashion cowl!
I know you’re relieved to find the tag.
Mugsy or some other guardian angel was definitely looking out for you.
Sissy looks fab in her new cowl. As cold as it is right now, she needs it! Give both girls some love for me.
That is awesome that you found it!!!
I’m with you – I believe that your little angel Mugsy somehow made that happen!
I love Sissy’s new cowl ans now want one for moi.
