Basset Hounds Pawty!


We went to a party with many many basset hounds!!! This year, there weren't as many as bassets as last year. The sad thing was, my big puppy didn't get to go to the party.

She picked up a big tree seed from the ground during her walk 2 days ago and had allergic reactions --- luckily, it wasn't too bad and she's fine the next day. However, we don't want her to get some more rest, so we didn't bring her to the pawty.

Food Delivery

We went out to see a house on Thursday afternoon and then had the dinner outside, so I didn't prepare lunch for One USA Unit. Since I don't want my hubby to starve, I went to buy salad from our favorite store in downtown and deliver to his work.
Hearty Chicken Cobb Salad


Strawberry Poppyseed Salad

Preventing Lost KAT


Big white "K"at LOVES going outside, but he doesn't know how to come back home. Because of this, we need to be really careful not to let him run out from home. Once in a while, we will let the dogs watch the Kat lol Neither of the dogs want to do that...so Kat usually gets sent to Kitty Jail (aka dog crate) on the deck for a little bit.

Hotpot Date


One USA Unit and I like to eat hotpot. Few days ago, we've decided to stop by a local Chinese restaurant and had some yummy hotpot. It was great as usual.

I am lucky that One USA Unit is open-minded - - - he is willing to try different types of food, and yes, he did try STINKY TOFU when we went to Taiwan!!!!! He is indeed a brave young man <3 I love my One USA Unit :)

A Safer Place!


Today I drove the dogs to the University for a walk! I don't want to walk around the neighborhood anymore. My dogs are not super friendly dogs...and I know some people think we don't "teach our kids"... I am just lazy to explain how/where we got our dogs, and they are doing way better than before already! I always put them on the leash when we walk around the neighborhood, and the law actually says people need to leash their dogs. However, many people don't do that, and they think it's my fault if their dogs run up to my dogs and my dogs go crazy...who doesn't want to have super friendly dogs?! I guess someone who wanted "perfect" dogs and threw the dogs into shelter, and then people like me who adopted the dogs get yelled at by random people at the street who don't leash their dogs and apparently can't really control the dogs well enough either lol Whatever, people...I love my dogs, and they are perfect to me!

Almost gave up!


Today is a PERFECT day to bike to work...it was snowing in the morning...really, WTF! Anyway, I still enjoyed the ride. Coming back home is a whole other story; there's easier route for me to take, but that one has tons of traffic and without a bike lane. I tried that easier route one time and decided to find a safer way home. I decided to take another route today...I was like going up hill 10+ blocks and 2/3 of the distance was pretty steep. I almost gave up in the middle of the hill since there's actually bus going up there...I stopped and took a photo...rested for a minute or two...and decided to keep going...I kept thinking about "I can do this...I can do this...I can do this......" Finally, I reached the point where I could pedal the bike easily!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Believe it or not, I've decided - - - Tomorrow, I'm going to try it again!! 

A Month Without You

Dear Torison, It's been a month without you. I think of you a lot, especially when I do things in the kitchen. No one helps me pick up ...
