Espresso left us this year, but now she has all the muffins she could want.

Happy Holidays from the Johnsons!

Because this is a dog blog too, right? I don't currently have a dog, so I get some of my canine fix on Super Bowl Sundays with Animal Planet's Puppy Bowl.

What's not to love? (Aside from the kitty half time show, that is. Boo cats!)

Coffee, and dogs, too. (Click on the pic of Espresso in the left column. Buddy pic coming soon.) Jane just sent me this link, firedoglake: A Message From Kobe, Katie, Lucy and Boo Boo* with a pic of her four dogs. And the post is a reminder of what happened in New Orleans.

Clearing something up right at the start. The "Espresso" dog over on the left is real. She is one of my two dogs. Buddy is the other.
