I've gone, shuffled off to share the Tart's blog - you'll find me there now, when she lets me near the computer...

Chocolate Dog Chocolate Cake

At last, an up-to-date pic of ME - albeit that I had to share with the liquorice dog. Incidentally, I would like to make it quite clear that despite appearances to the contrary, I am STILL taller and stronger than Midge. She may be pretty nippy at cornering but I reckon I could still beat her in a 100m straight dash - it's just that I choose not to demean myself by entering into such challenges. I am after all a pure bred hound with an impressive pedigree while the tyke is a cross breed. Midge still thinks it's pretty smart to obey all commands. I wish she'd start showing some gumption by NOT coming back when called, by indicating that sniffing is MUCH more important and not to be hurried. All that happens is that she gets extra biscuits and I get shouted at and often some pretty rough treatment - even put back on a lead, for goodness' sake

She does, however, wind H and L up quite dramatically whenever we are left home alone for any length of time. She eviscerates her dog bed, and mine, given half a chance. She gnaws through the latest cover and extracts yards and yards of wadding and stuff and spreads it round the house. Blissssss.
Anyway, folks, as you may have gathered by now, it's Open Studio time. Sadly it also a time of excessive rain - its hasn't stopped in days and days and days. This does not encourage people to get in the cars and travel round open studios. This means spare chocolate cake and the merest hint of a chance that some may fall into the laps of the dogs...
Maybe the weather will brighten and we may have more visitors over the coming week, maybe not. Ho hum! It's an ill wind.
