I had made these baskets up for the shelter, I wanted to get rid of some movies I had and that are taking up space. Seeing as I couldn't sell them, most of these swap and buy groups these people want it for nothing and...

Lemon Cupcakes

911Ricki @911Ricki (13588) • Canada 29 Apr 13

I made lemon cupcakes last night, it was simple a white cake mix (made up), mixed with the lemon pie filling. Seeing as I didn't have the cake mix, I used my parents, so they got to eat some too. It made about 16...

lilybug That sounds good. I have heard of using cherry pie filling before. I suppose any pie filling would work. Chocolate cake and cherry pie filling sounds really good. Sweet enough that they don't need frosting?

lilybug I love the combination of chocolate and peanut butter. I have never made a shake like that before. I have done peanut butter and banana. It was really good.

We had to bring Turbo back :(

katsmeow1213 @katsmeow1213 (28716) • United States 29 Apr 13

We are all miserable right now.. It started this morning with me noticing Turbo seemed sick. He has nasal discharge that is not a normal color and he's been sleeping a ton! So we made an appointment to see the vet. The dog...

lilybug That really sucks. That shelter is wrong for letting you adopt a sick dog to being with. I hope you all feel better about the decision soon.

Looks like my poor puppy will be making his first vet visit already!

katsmeow1213 @katsmeow1213 (28716) • United States 29 Apr 13

And let me tell you I'm none to happy about this! So the dog has a bit of a cough.. and this morning he was sneezing and had boogers coming out of his nose. This very well could be kennel cough.. or hopefully just a slight cold...

lilybug I have never seen a dog with a cough or a cold before. I really hope that it is not kennel cough. I would be pissed at the shelter as well. That dog is still under a 'warranty' of sorts and the least they could do was look at him.

Did you take your dog to obedience classes?

katsmeow1213 @katsmeow1213 (28716) • United States 29 Apr 13

I was just looking up some price info about obedience classes for our dog. Looks like about $125 for 6 weeks worth of classes, slightly cheaper at PetSmart. I have no experience with this.. so I wanted to see what other dog owners...

Eclipse likes dog treats..

katsmeow1213 @katsmeow1213 (28716) • United States 29 Apr 13

Hubby has been spending a few minutes a day trying to train the new puppy. He's starting with simple commands like sit and shake and lie down. So hubby will grab our bag of training treats and get down on the floor to train...

lilybug I have seen dogs who like cat treats, so I guess I could see it going the other way. The problem is getting a cat to do a trick for the treat.

lilybug I went to work today and picked up litter for our cat. It was $7.75 a jug normally, but with the in store coupon and my employee discount I got it for $5.00 a jug. I grabbed 2 of them, but I was thinking about picking up a few more tomorrow when I get off...

Do you think family members should take advantage of the staff discount?

911Ricki @911Ricki (13588) • Canada 28 Apr 13

lilybug I have bought things for family members using my employee discount before. Family members I don't see what is wrong with it unless your work prohibits things like that.

Good old bake sales

911Ricki @911Ricki (13588) • Canada 27 Apr 13

You rarely see the good old bake sales. I know a few here would carry on and on how gross it is for this or that. Clearly they don't know the meaning behind it, and even scrab by for food (they wouldn't say that if they had to...

We brought Turbo home from the shelter this evening. He's very happy to have a family! He is already very attached to the kids. He likes sitting with them on the sofa, the way he is in the picture. He doesn't like not being near...

lilybug No advice on how to get him to stop jumping, but hopefully you figure something out soon. I think Turbo will get bigger than the youngest 2 pretty quickly.

lilybug $25 is not a bad rent increase. Especially if that is the only increase you have had in the almost 12 years you have been living there. I just hope that it is not just the beginning of the rent increases. Holding off on increasing the rent this long I wonder...
