Where Did This Weather Come From?

It’s a BEAUTIFUL day in Boston!!! The temperature is in the low 70’s and there’s a nice cool breeze. Where did this gorgeous weather come from?

City view from our balcony:

I took advantage of the wonderful weather by eating my lunch on our balcony in the warm sunshine.

I made an open-face sandwich on toasted whole wheat with pesto, cheddar, tomato, mushroom, onion, and avocado. It was yuuuuum! 😀

I drank a second iced coffee with lunch. It’s a double ice coffee kind of day, if ya know what I mean! 😉

I’m thinking chocolate + peanut butter for dessert! 😉

Common Foods Dangerous to Dogs

I saw an article in Real Simple (October 2009) about some common foods that can make your dog (or cat) sick. I had no clue that some of these foods were bad for animals, so I thought I would share the list on the blog.

1. Avocados
2. Macadamia nuts
3. Raw yeast, bread dough
4. Alcoholic drinks
5. Xylitol (found in sugarless gum)
6. Garlic, onions
7. Grapes, raisins
8. Chocolate

Speaking of dogs, Mal and I are off to take Murph for a long walk by the ocean.

See ya! 😎
