Ontario

Lay Down With Dogs…

The weather here is unseasonably warm.  Perfect weather for a mid day siesta with the gang.  41 with the humidex.  There is just enough room here for me.  I am taking it for the second day in a row.

Unlike the old adage, I do not fear fleas.  Fur up my nose, that is my biggest concern.

Darkness Rising

In the evening just before night, the darkness begins to rise up from the forest floor.

Here is what it looks like to the North of Tiny House Ontario.

Please excuse the annoying sound of allergies in my voice.

Morning Rain

It rained at Tiny House Ontario for a good portion of the night and right into the morning.  It was welcome.  We needed it and my garden is happy now.

When I got up this morning at about 7:00 am it was still raining and the cloth porch was drenched.  The cloth hangs onto the water and it becomes opaque.  I thought you might like to see what it looks like in a photo.  I had to edit it because the image turned out to be totally dark.  The truth is somewhere between, it is not dark but it is far more grey in there when it rains then it looks in the photo.  The second photo which is unedited as the cloth porch dries is more realistic.

The B List

The last few hours at Tiny House Ontario have been eventful because of the high winds and rain.  I know that we needed the rain but I am glad that it is over.  I braved the wind on Baby because I had to get to town to deal with my B list.  Bitter, Beef, Blog, Bread -n- Butter

The first two items on the list are for the dogs, while the beef is probably obvious as dog food, the bitter is for the garbage cans because one of the dogs has decided that she really likes to get into the garbage.

Can you guess which one before I show her guilty little face?

Minnie!  Three times in one day with her nose in the muck!  I am hoping a little bitter apple will fix up this problem.  It is funny that she started doing this at 7 years old I think.  Lucky for her she is so cute!

Blog… well this is obvious because here I am…

Bread -n- Butter – I have to go to Glenbernie Grocery so that I can get the bread I like (which is Rudolf’s whole grain Bavarian) and Organic Meadows butter.  When I became vegetarian I gave up all animal products except the organic items from this Ontario dairy.

So, that is the B list.  Just to wreck my B theme though, I might just get some tomatoes too, but only if the greenhouse has fresh ones.
