Lucy’s Selfie Sunday

Published on by Xena, Lucy and Chia21 Comments

Hi folks. It’s a lazy kinda day. Miss Jentry and Andrew are here, Chia’s with them, and Xena’s napping.

Even Larry Lemur and the squid (I forget it’s name) are napping together. It’s a bit cooler today, and I can hear the wind blowing, so I’m waiting to see if someone is going to start a fire in the fireplace. Then I’ll just curl up and warm my toes while I nap. I think I’ll do that even if there isn’t a warming fire. The Super Bowl is tonight, and I can already smell the yummy snacks Mom and Miss Jentry are fixing. I sure hope I get some of them! May your team win!!

Thanks to The Cat on My Head for hosting Sunday selfies.

Lucy’s Thankful Thursday Poetry

Published on by Xena, Lucy and Chia22 Comments

Lucy: I’m thankful for Angel Brian, who is hosting Thankful Thursday, as well as Angel Sammy for the fun picture every week. And I’m thankful my sis Xena didn’t realize what day it was, BOL! So, here’s the picture and poem. Enjoy!

Dance And Romance by Lucy

It’s time for us spinsters to go out on the town.
We took an Uber to good old Chatt Town.
We’re all wearing feathers; Maude’s wearing a frown.
I hope we don’t do anything to live down.

We’ve gone to a ballroom; we may even dance.
There’s more ladies than men I see at first glance.
But still we can hope that we’ll each get a chance
To find a good partner for dance and romance.
The end.

I hope everyone knows that I just made something up for a poem. I leave the dancing to my sisters, and I already have a boyfriend, Achilles. Just look at this picture.

Can you see my tail wagging? Achilles is about to kiss me!

Chia: Ick! I don’t need no stupid boyfriend. I’m thankful I have my Dad, who loves me. I get in his lap and make him laugh so I can real quick stick my tongue in his mouth.

Lucy and Xena: Ewwwwww.

Xena: I’m thankful that we’ve had warm weather. It’s been in the 70’s F. and we’ve gone on walks around the neighborhood every day. On Wednesday we even got to visit with Miss Pam in her front yard. She lives right up the street from us.

Chia: I heard Miss Jentry and Mom talking about going hiking on some nearby mountain this coming Saturday. I bet they take me! *whole body wiggles*

Lucy: Well, that’s all the fantasy for today *looking at Chia*. Everyone have a wonderful weekend!

My Last Birthday Month Poem

Published on by Xena, Lucy and Chia27 Comments

I do hope Xena lets me do the poems more throughout the year. But this is my last one for January.

The Idjit and the Horse by Lucy

I saw that horsie coming and I squeezed my eyes shut tight
But she made it o’re that idjit with a clearance oh so slight.
Now I see this quarter horse not more than 14 hands.
After she jumps this idiot he may be no more a man.

Poor guy. I wonder if this is some kind of punishment. *sigh* I’m thankful my Mom never punishes me. I always try to be a good girl. Once in a while I have messed up and she has scolded me, so I’m also thankful that she forgives me almost right away, too.

Chia: I’m thankful all that cold white stuff is gone from our yard. And I’m thankful that I get to pick between Andrew and Mom for where I sleep at night.

Xena: I’m thankful for…I don’t know. It’s not been a great week. I messed up at church last week on the carpet in the chapel and Mommy stepped in it and well, things went downhill from there. I mean, she didn’t punish me or anything, but, well, I may not be going back. Or I may have to wear my big girl panties if I do. I don’t know which is worse. And I’ve been wanting to sleep on the couch where I’m already curled up on a soft blankie instead of getting up and going into the bedroom with Mommy. Then I get cold or scared or lonely and go pound on the door to get let in. I guess I should have learned by now to not wake up my Mommy. It doesn’t go well. Is this the kind of stuff that happens when you’re only four months away from turning eight years old?

Chia: Now I’m also thankful I’m not Xena. Maybe Mom will take me to work instead!

Xena: Yep, Chia, I heard Mommy talking about when she’s going to take you.

Chia: When? Tell me! *wags*

Xena: When H-E-double hockey sticks freezes over. But she didn’t spell it, she said the word.

Lucy: I think (hope) that’s all we’ve got for today. Before we go, I want to thank  Angel Sammy for the fun picture and, as always, I’m thankful for Angel Brian, who does such a great job at hosting Thankful Thursday. 

Lucy with Thankful Thursday Poem

Published on by Xena, Lucy and Chia23 Comments

This is Lucy back again on my birthday month, having fun with a picture by Angel Sammy And, as always I’m thankful for Angel Brian, who does such a great job at hosting Thankful Thursday. Here’s the picture for this week:

The Pool and the Cool Hound by Lucy

The game got cancelled, so what can we do?
How ’bout something different, something new?
There’s a new kiddie pool in the back yard.
So they stripped to their shorts with disregard
For children or pets who might be around.
They said, “Look! That pups laughing! What a cool hound.”

OK, so I don’t actually have “hound” in me. I’m 1/3 AmStaff, 1/3Pit Bull, and 1/3 Boxer. My Mom says that’s a really great mix, and I’m proof of it. *wags and full teeth smiles* But I’m thankful I got to do the poem again this week. And I’m thankful the snow has gone away, too.

Chia: I’m thankful Mom took us to the dog park last Friday. And she didn’t yell at me even one time to stop pulling.

You can see that there was still snow and mush on some parts of the walkway. And wow, look at Lucy’s crazy shadow! I’m thankful that dog isn’t coming after me. Hey Luce, why did you kinda hang back so much? Mom was being super nice with her soft voice on the whole walk and didn’t even try to slow me down.

Lucy: I guess cause she kept wanting me to cross in front of her instead of behind her. I was just trying to be polite. But she said I was going to knock her down with the leash pulling against the back of her legs. I felt bad I almost knocked her down, so I stayed back behind her.

Chia: Next time, Luce the Deuce, just do what she says. She had to keep gently saying, “Come on Lucy, hurry up Lucy, come on up front with us, Lucy.” Although, come to think of it, that did take the focus off me.

Xena: Yeh, Lucy, why can’t you and Chia just be perfect walking companions like me? *wags* My turn for a thankful. I am thankful that I am a perfect walking companion for my Mommy, and don’t pull on the leash or lag behind! Once in a while I stop to sniff, but that’s just my natural curiosity, and Mommy understands that.

Lucy and Chia: Phhthhhhh!

Lucy, Chia and Xena the Perfect Walking Companion wishing you a Happy and Thankful Thursday!

Lucy with Another New Groom

Published on by Xena, Lucy and Chia18 Comments

Lucy, Ace Reporter here, with another new groom. Although this pup will look sort of familiar, I promise you, she is a different dog. Let’s get right to it.

Do you remember Pumpkin, the Doodle I reported on just a few days ago? Well, this here is Gracie, who sure does look a lot like Pumpkin. In fact, she came to us looking a lot like Pumpkin did before she was groomed. Groomer Mom totally forgot to take any pictures at all, probably because Gracie’s Dad stayed during most of the groom in case G.M. needed any help with her (she didn’t). He was kind enough to send us this picture after they got home.

Gracie was born on July 29 of 2024 and is a Golden Doodle. She came to the family to keep Toby, their wild Doodle, company. She’s not too crazy about her big brother, but at least it keeps Toby busy and away from poor little Sammy, a shih tzu mix, who is 15 years old. Toby’s gotten too big for Small Dog Grooming, but Sammy still comes for a groom on a regular basis.

That’s it, friends, for this episode of Grooming with Mom.
Your Ace Reporter and Birthday Month Girl, Lucy

Lucy’s Happy Birthday Tuesday

Published on by Xena, Lucy and Chia35 Comments

First, thanks to Miss Sandee at Comedy Plus for hosting Happy Tuesday Blog Hop! 

I sure hope you aren’t too tired of hearing about me having a birthday month, cause guess what? Today’s the day!!! When Mom and Dad got home from work Mom fed us all a half hour early. Yes, Xena and Chia, you’re welcome. *wags*

Then Mom gave me one of my two birthday presents. 100% natural, made in the USA, Beef Marrow Bone. The other present is a 100% natural, made in the USA, Beef Knuckle. They both have only one ingredient: bone! I had been wondering what was in that Chewy box. Here’s my Happy Birthday picture.

Wishing everyone a Happy Tuesday!

Lucy’s Selfie Sunday

Published on by Xena, Lucy and Chia23 Comments

Thanks to The Cat on My Head for hosting Sunday selfies.

Just two more days and it’s my 9th birthday. I was laying in bed this morning after breakfast (which was an hour late but I didn’t complain) thinking about being 8.

It was a pretty good year. I got to go to the church a lot. And ate good food. And had my sisters here. But we lost Riley, and he and I were good friends. So that’s a sad thing. But he needed to go, I know. And I know I always seem to be self-confident when I write my blog. Just like I do when I see people other than my family.

But the truth is, I’m still scared of a lot of stuff, like if someone lifts their hand up like they might be going to hit me. No one ever hits me, or even almost hits me. It’s just from my first year before I got my furever Mom and Dad. Now I know I’m safe and loved. In fact, everyone seems to love me, so I should feel better about myself. Hey, maybe that’s why Mom named me “Lucy.” There’s a TV show – or so I’ve been told – called “I love Lucy.” Thanks, Mom. I love you and Dad too, and also Xena and Chia and all my friends in the neighborhood and at work, and all my blogging friends, too. So come visit me anytime you want, and I’ll always make you feel welcome.

Your good friend, Lucy the birthday month girl.

Lucy and Our Friend Gracie

Published on by Xena, Lucy and Chia12 Comments

Since it’s my birthday month, I get to use Xena’s blog anytime I want to. And I want to tell all y’all about our friend Gracie coming to stay with us last month. I’ve heard that Gracie’s been coming over here since before Angel Lexi passed. They were kinda like friends. At least Lexi didn’t object to her being here. Gracie stayed with Mom and Dad the Christmas after Lexi became an angel. She even went to Fort Wayne with them and sat on Santa’s lap. Gracie’s a little girl with a big personality.

Do you see Xena’s sweater on Gracie? Xena didn’t mind her wearing it at all. Gracie tries to get along with everyone and within a day of being here she just becomes one of our pack. Mom didn’t want to let her go home this time and threatened to move next time she was here and not give her pawrents our new address, BOL. Uh, you don’t think she was serious, do you?

We had a cold spell in December and I got to wear my red plaid winter coat that I got for Christmas last year. Or maybe it was the year before. Anyhoo, it sure felt good when we went out to do our business early in the morning. The next day it had warmed up nice and neither of us had to wear a sweater or coat. Mom took just me and Gracie for a walk in the sunshine.

Gracie even started sleeping in Mom’s bed with us. It’ ok, she doesn’t take up much room. And Mom would cover her with a blanket so she didn’t get cold during the night.

So that’s my story of having a friend stay with us. I hope she comes back and visits again soon!

Lucy, the birthday month girl. (I’m gonna be 9 and that’s so fine! *smiles and wags*)

Lucy and Snow

Published on by Xena, Lucy and Chia19 Comments

*shiver* I’m just thinking about how cold that snow is that I have to walk in to go potty! It started right on time at eight o’clock this morning. After about an hour Mom took me and Xena out to do our busyness in the front yard.

You can see there wasn’t much snow, but neither of us would go walking in it to do what we needed to do! A little while later Mom suited up Chia and out we went again.

None of us still would go far enough in it to do our busyness. Chia wouldn’t even come off the top step, not even to run down and say hi to the neighbor folks walking their Jack Russel mix. This is Chia’s first snow!

A few hours later there were three or four inches of snow on the ground.

I finally made the snow yellow. I know this isn’t a big deal to most of our friends. But we haven’t had any snow since Chia came to live with us three years ago. Our driveway, as you can see, is downhill, and the exit from our subdivision is downhill too, where you have to turn right or the other direction on a busy two lane highway. So pretty much no one goes anywhere when it’s like this, and most businesses close. Even Mom and Dad’s monthly dance cancelled for tonight — not that they were venturing out in this anyhow!

Chia found bare ground under the living room’s overhang and she did what she had to there.
I finally said enough is enough. I want to go in the house and curl up somewhere warm and without this cold, wet, white stuff.

I fell on my face coming up those snowy stairs. That’s why I have snow on my nose! Don’t worry, though, I’m OK.

Hoping all y’all are safe and happy. And thanks to Rosy and Sunny of The LLB Life for hosting this snowy Nature Friday!

Love, Lucy, the birthday month girl!

Lucy’s Birthday Month

Published on by Xena, Lucy and Chia26 Comments

Thanks to The Cat on My Head for hosting Sunday selfies.

Hi friends! My birthday is just one day before my Dad’s birthday.
Chia: Does that mean you’re a year older than him? Or just a day older?
Lucy: Mmmm, no, it doesn’t work that way. You have to factor in years and divide by a number and then add so many days.
Chia: Oh. Never mind. Are you gonna get something good? Are you gonna be so excited you’ll go outa your mind?
Lucy: Hmmm, no, it only works that way with you. But maybe I’ll get something good. I’ve been a very good girl all year. Mom says my picture is even in the dictionary, right next to the word “compliant.” Not sure what that means, but I always try to do what I’m supposed to do.

I just got my early birthday bath. I didn’t think I needed one. Mom took this picture to “prove” that I did. By the way, that’s Chia’s Edward the Duck laying by my feet. Don’t worry, I won’t hurt him.

Someone else in the house said I smelled bad, too. I was just trying to be there for him, ya know? Oh well, it was bath time. And I did a first for me. Always, always, always, when Mom said, “Get in the tub, Lucy.” I jumped in the tub (compliant). But this time I said, “I don’t want a bath.” We went back and forth like that several times, and I held to my stance. Except when Mom reached down to pick me up. When she did that, I dropped to the floor. Then, you won’t believe what happened! Mom was just standing there not looking at me and I was just standing there in silent protest and I thought, “Great, no bath,” when she reached down real fast and picked me up and put me in the tub. Aghh! At least she didn’t try to take my picture while I was getting showered.

A while later when I was all dry we all got to go out in the dog lot to do our “business.” Now I can see that I did need a bath to let my Hebrew name, Ora, shine through. Ora means light or brightness. Can you see all the bright light shining off me?

I hope I stay clean until my birthday on January 14. I hope someone scratches my tummy all day. That’s my favorite thing. Oh, and for a birthday present, Xena said I can make as many posts on “her” blog as I want all month long. So get ready, ’cause I’m gonna be at the computer a lot (as long as Mom doesn’t mind helping me). Oh, and this is my selfie today, as Ora!

Your waggly, birthday month girlfriend, Lucy.

Lucy’s Thursday Poetry and Thankfuls

Published on by Xena, Lucy and Chia19 Comments

As always, we give our thanks to Angel Brian who is hosting Thankful Thursday, as well as Angel Sammy for the fun picture every week. 

Xena: Since I didn’t want to deal with a mess of baby pandas, I asked Lucy to do the poem this week. This is right up her alley!

Lucy: Thanks, Xena. And she’s right; I love babies of any kind. So let’s get this poem going!

Panda Sitting

I started sitting baby pandas
And next thing that I knew
I was planning a New Years party
For baby pandas in the zoo.

They were so excited
With the treats and toys and fun
I had to watch them closely
That no one took off at a run.

They rolled around and giggled
And said I was their new Mom.
I couldn’t be more happy;
I love each and every one!

Thankfuls!
Xena: I’m thankful that my Mommy is finally starting to feel better from that nasty flu that I hope flew away and isn’t scaring me with her hacking and coughing and blowing.
Chia: I’m thankful I could be Mom’s therapy dog while she was sick. I stayed with her and cuddled her and I think I heard her say I’m her new favorite dog.
Xena: No! I don’t believe you. You should be thankful I don’t bite off your tail for saying that!
Chia: *grrrr*
Lucy: Stop. Mom loves us all. And we’re all her favorite pups. Now be thankful I don’t lay on you.
Xena (Mommy’s favorite), Chia (Mom’s favorite) and Lucy: We wish you a very happy and healthy New Year!




Lucy’s Thankful Thursday and Poetry

Published on by Xena, Lucy and Chia22 Comments

Lucy: I’m thankful for Angel Brian, who is hosting Thankful Thursday, as well as Angel Sammy for the fun picture every week. I hope no one is upset that I added one little detail to the picture – do you see it? Now for my poem.

Double Jeopardy by Lucy

The workers drove a jeep of blue,
Climbing the cliffs of Timbuktu.
To build a house upon the top
Despite the precarious drop.

Then suddenly there did appear
A huge creature with lots of hair,
Blocking the path they must traverse;
They feared returning in a hearse.

Slowly they did back away
While hoping Sasquatch there would stay.
‘T’was not a place a home to build
Unless you were in a Big Foot guild!

Wow, I sure hope my Mom and Dad never decide to do something like that. I’ll have to say, “Just leave me here!”

Chia: I was very sad when Miss Jentry went home on Sunday evening. I curled up in bed with Bro Andrew and cried for a while. But I’m thankful she’s coming back this Sunday…maybe even sooner!

Xena: I’m thankful that our twice a year vet visit to have blood drawn for our DNA heartworm test is done. I don’t like going to the vet. I hide under the chair.
Chia: Hey Xeboo, didn’t you hear what happened? Mom set the vials of blood with the cold pack on top of the car before she helped us back into the car, then she drove away. She didn’t realize what she’d done until we got to FedEx and she couldn’t find the blood they stole from us. Dad’s taking us back again today for “another stick.”
Xena: Noooo!! *shaking and hiding under the kitchen chair*

Lucy: I hope all our friends have a good Thursday and no one tries to steal your blood.




Lucy’s Report on Millie’s Birthday

Published on by Xena, Lucy and Chia9 Comments

Lucy, Ace Reporter here with a special video to show you today. One of our shih tzu clients – Millie – had a special birthday. She sent us a video of her dancing while her Mom sang Happy Birthday, and we want to share it with you, dear reader.

https://youtube.com/shorts/RBeclm0-88w

Even her little brother Gus joined in! I hope you enjoyed the enthusiasm with which Miss Mille celebrated her birthday.

This is Lucy signing off with wishes for a good rest of your weekend. *wags*

Awww Monday with Xena and the Pack

Published on by Xena, Lucy and Chia28 Comments

Xena: First a big thanks to  Comedy Plus for hosting Awww Mondays!

Chia: Do you hear what I hear?
Lucy: I’m listening. I think I hear it.

Xena: Look at the camera! Mommy’s taking our picture.

Lucy: Where do you think that noise came from? Was it a squirrel?
Chia: Maybe from in the house?

Xena: You two just can’t focus, can you.
Chia: Be quiet, Xena, we’re trying to focus.

Lucy’s Not-so good Selfie Sunday

Published on by Xena, Lucy and Chia13 Comments

Thanks to The Cat on My Head for hosting Sunday selfies. But I wish it wasn’t my selfie.

Yep, this is my stupid selfie. I’m wearing ghost lights, and I think the spirits of the ghosts are hovering around me. It’s all very Halloweenish. And if that wasn’t enough Chia photo-bombed me.

This was at 7:00 in the morning for our early morning walk. I was supposed to be lighting the way. Why couldn’t Mom just wear her flashy sash with the lights she turns on in the dark so we don’t get run over by any cars. (There’s no sidewalks on our street.)

The day just continued to get worse. Around noon, Mom took all three of us to the Greenway, which is a great big space about 15 minutes from our house. It has lots and lots of trails as well as open spaces and even two dog parks. But they require us dogs to stay on our leashes if we’re not in the dog park. We walked for almost an hour before Mom realized that it was a dead end without so much as a side trail to take as a shortcut back. The whole way there and back Chia kept pulling hard on her leash. Mom kept correcting her, and that scared me. So I started hanging back and Mom had to pull on my leash just to keep me walking. In other words, Chia was pulling her forward and I was pulling her backward, and then Xena got tired and was panting and wanted carried. Finally, Mom dropped my leash and told me just to walk with her. I didn’t. I sat down and let everyone else keep going. Mom was almost out of sight when she yelled back, “Goodbye, Lucy.” Oh no! She was really going to leave me! I got up and trotted to try to catch up, then changed my mind and stopped again. Mom finally came back and got me. Whew. I was so confused! She said she’s never taking all of us at the same time again. Never. Not ever. Not unless someone else is with her to help.

When we got home I went to hide in the bedroom closet.

Mom found me. But she let me stay there as long as I wanted. I didn’t stay too long. It was close to supper time.

That was Friday. Today is better. Happy Sunday, everyone. *wags* Lucy

African Wambat Soup

Published on by Xena, Lucy and Chia22 Comments

Hi there, didn’t I tell you I would get this recipe from Mom’s box and share it when she left town again?! Wait til you see it. Oh, and please let me know if you have any idea where I can get an African Wambat here in the U.S.A. I don’t think I can get to Africa to get one.

Does anyone know who this Micky Dolenz is that gave my Mom the recipe?
Guess he’s someone Mom used to know. Anyhoo, I’ve been imagining making this soup and thought maybe I’d throw in some yummy veggies to make it even better!

Let me know, friends, if you find any wambats and make this soup. I’m really looking forward to having a Wambat Soup Carpet, too! Uh, how long is 17 days?

Lucy, the new Chef in town.

Lucy’s Poem and Our Thankfuls

Published on by Xena, Lucy and Chia20 Comments

Thanks to Angel Brian who is hosting Thankful Thursday as well as Angel Sammy for the fun pictures every week. Mom said I’ve been a bit ignored lately, so I can do the blog today! Yay! And soon, very soon, I’ll have a new recipe for you, too.

Matilda and Me by Lucy

Hey, get this thing away from me.
It stinks and drools and may have a flea.

Matilda, you stink when you poop and pee.
If you want, she’ll be your loving puppy.

I don’t! Take me back to the nursery
Where I’ll be adopted by another family!

If we have to choose, we choose our Lucy
So goodbye, good luck and farewell to thee!

I’m so glad Mom picked me! Mom’s going out of town again this weekend to a funeral over near Nashville. She and Dad are spending the night and then visiting with our Auntie Jen and Uncle Bill. I sure wish I could go and be with my guy, Achilles, but there’s going to be too much commotion there with the funeral and all. I’m thankful that brother Andrew is here to take care of us! I love Andrew and my friend and brother Riley.

Xena: I’m kinda thankful that other schnauzer is gone. Mommy, my Mommy, would look down and see her standing next to her and think it was me… at least for a moment. How could she mistake another dog for me? I’m thankful I’m still Mommy’s baby girl.

Lucy: That’s all for this week. I’ll dig into Mom’s recipe box while she’s gone this weekend and get that other recipe I wanted to share. It’s another unusual one, BOL!

Mom’s Birthday Trip

Published on by Xena, Lucy and Chia30 Comments

Hi friends, I’m back with pictures of Mom’s birthday trip to the North Georgia Mountains near Helen, GA.

They drove along the famous Ocoee River where there’s lots of rafting and tubing. This is a picture of people whitewater rafting. I think I’d rather stay home!

They kept driving up and down mountains and back and forth on winding roads, until they got to their Air B & B in a little town called Sautee Nacoochee, GA. This is the scenery they mostly saw.

Mom wanted to get a picture of them on the porch, with the trees and mountains in the background. Their backs were to the north, and the sun was busy setting in the west, so the picture isn’t too good. The mountain town of Helen, Georgia has Octoberfest all of September and October. The folks hit it mid-September before it got crazy busy. All the stores and restaurants down the “main drag” were part of it

Now comes the best part! *suspenseful music*
I can’t figure out how, but Mom got word that I was wanting to make elephant stew to surprise her when she got home on her birthday. She and Dad looked and looked for elephant meat. This was as close as they could find (ads on the windows of local stores).

Oh, well, at least they tried. They’re going out of town overnight again soon (they’re going to Inn Dee Anna to a big dance) so I’ll take another look in Mom’s recipe box then.

Oh, I should also mention that they both had a great time at the Octoberfest dance hall where live bands played all day long. They danced and danced the polka until they couldn’t dance anymore, Then they went for a walk, came back, and danced some more! One person even asked for an “at the moment” dance lesson, which they gave him. I guess I’ll finish up with a coupla pictures Mom took of feel-good signs in the windows of a chocolate store. (We didn’t get any chocolate.)

Xena: Hey Chia, did you eat chocolate? Mom weighed you in at 5 pounds over what you weighed in the spring. I’ve been hearing her call you her little sausage.

Chia: Grrrr.

Lucy’s Elephant Stew

Published on by Xena, Lucy and Chia25 Comments

Lucy: Mom and Dad have gone away again. Down to south Georgia, so I hear, for a little getaway retreat for Mom’s birthday this Monday. After they left, I started going through Mom’s recipes, just for fun, to see what we might all like to eat. BTW (that means By The Way in reporting news, or, maybe, just in conversation.) Anyway, BTW, we have a 14-year-old schnauzer living with us for a couple of weeks. Mom said she’d get some pictures and tell you about Zoie next week. But I’m off subject again. Recipes. I did find one that sounded great. Here it is, straight out of Mom’s recipe box.

Did you read the recipe? If Mom’s got in in here recipe box it has to be good! But I’m not sure Mom will be gone two months. And I really don’t know where I can get an elephant around here. We do have rabbits around here if we need more. Hey y’all, let me know if you make this, OK?
