Kathy’s been bombing…

Yarnbombing that is!

Debby,

I have combined my love for fiber arts with photography…I am a yarnbomber! http://yarnbombing.com The whole idea of the activity is to decorate an inanimate object without harming it and leave without being observed!  Some lucky individual will eventually remove the handmade fiberwork and take it home for their own!  We never know who!

Do you recognize this cowboy wearing a stylish scarf and handmade bookmark?  Barnes and Noble–Denver Park West. 🙂

New favorite craigs list ad…….

Couldn’t have said this better…in many respects.

You aren’t looking for them, but I found your two dogs
Date: 2010-02-18, 4:42PM EST

Sigh. No one is looking for these guys. And I see why.

They hump everything in sight, try to dominate our old doggies, try to
eat our cats and pee on everything and bark at everything. Neurotic,
lick constantly. They know no commands, either in English or Spanish.
They are aggressive and most likely lived in a puppy mill.

You dumped them, probably, and we picked them up before they were killed
by traffic. Unneutered, no tags, two small males under a year old.

I hate you, person who dumped these dogs.

There are no lost ads on phone poles, no lost ad on Craig’s list, no
lost ad in the paper.

We put signs up all over, put a found notice in at the local pounds. If
you were looking for these filthy little ragamuffins, you would have
found them.

We are afraid to take them to the pound because under stress, your dogs
were snappy and horribly afraid, and dogs are judged by temperament for
adoption placement. They would not have passed that test.

However…

They are, under their filth, mats and horrible habits, adorable.

They have learned “Quiet,” “Come,” “Sit.”

They have stopped being so neurotic and we have broken most of their bad
habits in just a few days.

They are smart and sweet and are looking for guidance and WANT to be
good little dogs.

One is a purebred little white and buff guy with an under bite, the
other is a brown little dog that looks almost exactly like a miniature
version of a larger breed dog. They know each other and were obviously
(by the same bad habits) raised (poorly) together.

We will get them neutered, train them and get them into a good, loving
home with people who use the brains God gave them.

If these are your dogs, come on by. Not so you can have them back. So I
can kick your ass.

Cool site for the gardeners among us

Thanks for sharing Vickie! There’s all kinds of recipes for stunning flowers…

With Proven Winners, landscaping means more than adding bedding plants to your yard and garden. With our healthy performers and some step-by-step advice, you can create a garden in a basket or a landscape in a container!

Here’s an example:

This recipe assumes that 4.5″ plants are being used. To make the recipe work using larger plants, you will need to choose a pot that is larger than our suggested size or use fewer plants of each variety in the recipe.
