The Pous Chef

One more close-up of Ben as my Pous-Chef.

(come on...he's cute as hell...with a lot of resentment in his eyes...but it only lasted 2 minutes)

Halloween 2009 -- The Pupkin

What a fabulous day! Halloween on a Saturday should be mandated by law. OK, maybe not. The year that it does fall on a Saturday makes it SO SPECTACULAR!

Here's Ben suffering as the Pous Chef to my Chef of Death.

More on the Great Pupkin to follow.

New Day at the Beach

So we, Rachel and I, made it to Jacob Riis Park again this morning. An incredibly beautiful day that started out cold and got a lot warmer during our walk.

There were five of us. Three anxious dogs and 2 dozy humans. Plus a lot of sandpipers and a few fishermen.

Here are the dogs, Izzy, Mr. Smith and Ben, stuffed into the back seat of Rachel's car and behaving very well, on the way down to the beach.
