Good Sunday morning everyone! Another early blog for me while sipping on coffee. It's 6:50 am. Russell is catching up on the news. Our pooches are patiently waiting for their breakfast, one hour after their meds. Cooper will eat at around 7:30, always eager and ready to chow down. Miss Spicy likes to take her time, she doesn't like to be rushed so she will eat around 8 am. Then their day will truly start.
This past week was good. Our weather was a mix of sun, clouds and some rain. On Monday, I went to Bulk Barn to buy 20 cups of coconut for the coconut macaroons that I plan on baking today. Those macaroons are Russell's favorites. I make them every year and they freeze well. A nice little treat at this time of year.
The Coop and the Spice girl got to try their new puzzles. They got to sniff them first then the fun started. They need more practice but they both go at it the way we thought they would....Spicy is gentle, more precise in her movements. Cooper is a tad more aggressive. It's a fun way to work their brains and sense of smell. They enjoy it and it's a nice change from snuffling.
On Friday, I met up with my friend Lillian. We had coffee at Le Marche de l'Ouest. It was nice to catch up on things. We always have lots to talk about. I got Blu-Belle a little Christmas decoration. Lillian sent me the photo of the ornament, so lovely how she displays it.
Christmas is truly in the air in our house. Yesterday, I got everything done...the tree, the stockings are up (not filled) and our most precious "doggie tree" is on display on the countertop in the kitchen. For the past six years, we've been getting Cooper & Spicy a special ornament which is added to the tree. It makes for a wonderful display and a keepsake that we will always cherish.
That's my blog for today. Time to get breakfast ready for Cooper....he's now moved from the TV room to the kitchen...he knows it's soon time to eat. Spicy is still having a nap. Pics of our Christmas tree in next week's blog. Have a great week everyone!

| Nothing better than teamwork to solve a tricky puzzle. |
