Super Easy Summer Dessert And Stuff

 Yesterday I felt like I was in slow motion all day. I went and picked up Roxy. The vet's orders to keep her calm and not let her jump around is almost impossible. She sits and bites Copper's feet to get him going so then the play is on. We had to put Roxy in Devin's room with Devin to keep them apart so stitches remain put.
The whole thing makes me queasy, I have little stomach for wounds, I generally do the fainting routine, to the great amusement of my family. When Brian was going through paramedic training he would show me pictures. The only time he amused me was when he started coming home and holding my hand. It wasn't any romantic gesture. He was looking at the veins on the back of my hands. I told my in-laws after umpteen years of being married he's looking at me in a whole new way.

So now that I have that out of my system, here's a easy and tasty recipe:

I had a piece. It was good!

Mix up some instant vanilla pudding. When it's set, add a tub of cool whip.
 Cut up an angel food cake (I use store bought, that's why it's super easy!)
Place the angel food in a 13 x 9 pan. Cover with the vanilla and cool whip mix.
Then add a can of raspberry pie filling over the top. Of course if you like something like strawberries or cherries that would probably be good too.
Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Gone To The Dogs

Sami always looks at me with a question in her eyes. That question is "where's my food?"

Cooper and Roxy wear each other out.

Roxy at about 3 months

I have to pick Roxy up at the vet tomorrow. She was spayed. As we left her at the vet, I felt like I was abandoning her. Poor Cooper has been depressed without his playmate.

Just for laughs

Trying To Catch Up

I am back to a quiet house and am now playing catch up. I listed more of the clowns from my mom's collection that she is giving up. Is that a shameless plug? Or do I need to add the URL  ( www.alyssawish.com). Any how I still need to take pictures of a whole lot more and list that as well.

Not to mention the shopping I did. So I'll have to post a picture here of my haul. I love looking and buying, even though I really don't need anymore inventory. Not to mention the temptation to keep a few things for myself. Brian's thrilled. ( How do you get sarcasm to come through the written word?).

 And today's picture.

I have old sheets and blankets covering my couch because Roxy and Cooper love playing out in the rain and mud. I have to push Sami out the door she doesn't like getting wet. I try to tell her she won't melt but I don't think she believes me. There is nothing like the smell of wet dog to let you know spring has finally arrived!

Roxy And Cooper And Wood Ticks.

I have been fighting off a cold so it might take a few days to get back up and going. In the mean time I'll leave these photos for oohs and ahhs.

Cooper and Roxy need naps often from all the wild and crazy playing. It takes a lot of energy.
Oh and the wood ticks are now out in great quantity. What I like to call the feel yourself up season!

Roxy

Roxy and Devin

We have 3 dogs. We adopted Cooper 2 years ago in June. He will be 2 years old this month. Happy Birthday Cooper! We did a trial adoption of Ace. Unfortunately Ace and Cooper had trouble getting along which was too bad, Ace is a good dog. 
However, in the interest of keeping the dogs safe we choice not to go through with the adoption. We thought perhaps a puppy might do better.

So here's Roxy. She's about 2 months old. She is a coon hound/shepard mix. So far Cooper is doing okay with her but gets a little rough as he still thinks he's a small lap dog.

Sami just stays out of the fray. She's a smart dog.
