Merry Christmas 2009!
Jeff and I just wanted to wish everyone a very happy and safe holiday. Slow life down and take some time to enjoy those precious moments with friends, loved ones or anyone that is special to you! We are in the middle of a very large winter storm that is bringing Minnesota to a halt - so far we've gotten 8" of snow, with another 8" to 14" coming tonight and through the day tomorrow!
So, needless to say, we're going to hunker down here at home with Gus and forgo the tradition of loading up the car and driving around the neighborhoods to look at lights. Gus hasn't ever had to deal with this much snow at once and he is having a blast running around outside - though, he has gotten "stuck" a few times and needed rescuing where we haven't shoveled him a run in the backyard! We took a few snaps of him running around and thought we would share...
Help me! I've fallen and can't get up!
What are you talking about? I wasn't stuck... I was just taking a break!
We'll be back to business in a couple days, in the meantime, take care and enjoy the holiday feasts!

That's awesome! Our little dogs couldn't get out at all! Believe it or not, we snow blow a bunch of paths in the yard so they can chase each other.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the snow, your family and friends. Meanwhile, we'll enjoy ours as well and the baked goodies! Mmmm...
Have a safe and Happy Holiday!
Merry Christmas, Joe and Jeff!
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the food inspiration you channel through this blog.
Hugs especially to Jeff this holiday season.

Hello from Duluth,
ReplyDeleteWon't the holiday lights look lovely in all this fresh snow we're getting?
Oh heck, I snowblow a path for my lab because she doesn't like to do "her business" in the deep snow!
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!!!
ReplyDeleteJoe & Jeff, Merry Christmas! You're lucky with Gus. My mini doxie, Zoi, can't stand the snow and would rather be sunning herself on a beach.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you both! I'm a little envious that you have snow - but I wouldn't want THAT much!
ReplyDeleteThe pictures of Gus are hilarious, especially the first one. You should submit it to a doggy magazine or something! :)
Dear Joe and Jeff,
ReplyDeleteYour blog always makes me smile. Thank you for sharing your wonderful baking and cooking. And the photos of Gus in the snow are too funny! Our two youngest cats, Polly and Apollo, experienced their first NY state snow this December and it was hilarious watching their shenanigans. May God bless you and your family now and in 2010.

Love the pictures of Gus! Merry Christmas to you and Jeff!

ReplyDeleteAwww, what cute pictures! Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteI laughed out loud at the super doggie! Have a very happy new year. Love to keep track of your adventures in the kitchen! Vanessa
ReplyDeleteWow I can't believe how much snow you had. I've never seen snow that deep. Gus is so cute playing in the snow. Hope you had a wonderful Chirstmas
ReplyDeleteJoe, I'm amazed at the number and diversity of recipes you have covered since the inception of your blog. I regret not having been a reader from the first post. You do a fantastic job with your explanations and pictures - they are appreciated. Have you considered publishing a cookbook? If not - you should. A huge hug to you, Jeff, and Max.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your time and expertise,
