Last night I made spaghetti squash and a sauce based on roasted Roma tomatoes from last summer's garden - simple and delicious!

This lady does dogs, including custom projects made to look like your own pooch https://www.facebook.com/kenleighacres/ Nice! For help on pricing, this same person's web page has prices. Most dogs are 6" long x 5" tall. http://www.kenleighsfiberstudio.com/felt-pup-pricing-information.html

I agree whole heartedly! Lovely work - it appeals to me much more than most of the horse hair jewelry that I've seen.

Mmm, mmm - sounds good! I love pesto, though I do confess to make it with walnuts rather than more expensive pine nuts (many of which come from China, for some reason.) Pesto is one of many reasons to grow a garden - the joy of my own basil forest! So I skimmed a few recipes to see the difference be...

Yes, photos of the driving course would be nice. I'm more interested in the "diving" (no 'r') course mentioned in the description.

Canyon

I'm disappointed that there are no photos of the "full size diving arena along with water obstacles." Seems a bit redundant, but I'm still having trouble picturing it.

They must have talented trick horses.

But seriously, oh to be 30 years younger with my current assets!

Canyon

Maybe Shoe Goo would work? I have used it on athletic shoes where the top and sole were separating. The reviews indicate it can be used to patch soles. What size shoe do you wear? I have a pair of jodhpur style W 7/7.5 Muck boots that are no longer comfortable for me to wear (stress fractures plus f...

IMHO and having grown up in NE - nothing beats a live Maine lobster. But, those are hard to find in Colorado. I prefer the cold-water lobster tails to warm-water tails. I'd go for it at those prices! Like any seafood, the quality will depend on how the product was handled.

Doug Jones' win gives me some hope for the future of our country!

Got the additional name, thanks!

Canyon

A variation on kande's idea - can you email them now, tell them what happened, and state, "Please do bring up the subject of my dog during your visit; I am too upset to discuss her right now." Of course, you may have your reasons for not wanting to bring up her death at all. Many hugs to y...

I have not received the email with the additional name, either.

I am still waiting for my cards to be delivered from the vendor; will mail ASAP after I receive them.

I have enjoyed the cards I have received from DDBBers!

Oh, she is a lovely surprise!

I don't remember if you are located North or South Island...I love names with a tie-in to the local geology and area. It's not Spanish, and she's the wrong color, but I suggest Wairakite anyway.

WMW - love the photos of the butterflies, and that horse is something special!

Canyon

Well, since we are off track... @WheresMyWhite - do you use ClickList? What do you think? Our local Kroger (City Market) is going to offer it soon. @LiteRiding - I agree with you on those aisle displays. The store where I usually shop is fairly new with wide aisles. But those displays really mess up...

Really, 3800 bulbs?!? You are dedicated! I planted a few hundred narcissus and crocus many years ago, and that was way more work than I imagined. It is so easy to get suckered in by the lovely photos in the catalogs. All your selections are beautiful! I am tempted by eranthus, but I have to really l...

The new bridle (and black saddle) look great on her, and you two look great together!

Thanks for posting the photo.

Wow, that was fast! I would love to sees pics of Miss A modeling her new bridle...

If you decide you want a Bobby's bridle, you might contact Nancy at http://rockhorseranch.webs.com/ She sells a lot of Bobby's Tack and should be able to advise you on the quality of leather for their various bridle series. I think she can mix and match pieces, if say you need long cheek pieces with...

I started out scribing at the schooling shows that our club puts on. Tell the judge you are new to scribing; he/she will explain whether they say the score or the remarks first for each movement. USDF Guide for Scribes has its list of preferred abbreviations and more suggestions for getting started,...

Thanks for the link to that great article. I am somewhat familiar with Wild Horse Inmate Program at the Canon City, CO.

Programs like these seem so worthwhile - the mustang and the inmate gentle each other, while improving their futures.

Lucky you - enjoy your new tractor! We have a similar Kubota that has been a good work horse for us. DH bought two clamp-on pallet forks (which I thought would be useless, since we don't feed large bales), but they have come in handy many times. We also ended up getting a 3-point quick hitch to make...

Rare white giraffes were discovered near the Ishaqbini Hirola Conservancy in Kenya. The female and her baby displayed the characteristics of a genetic condition known as leucism, which inhibits pigmentation in skin cells.

They must be stunning to see in the bush!

Oooh, Royal Kitties! Obviously, you are obligated to provide a castle for them in your home!

Irma is a very scary storm, with lots of devastation where she has passed.

I saw a recent report that stated Irma is expected to pass north of Puerto Rico, which could help the island avoid major damage.

Prayers for all in her path.

Rosie - such lovely artwork, all of it! I really like your grandfather's trees and the elk (?) Are there prints available of any of his paintings?

Chancellor - From one hard stick to another, I am so sorry that you are going through this!

Jingles and prayers for a quick recovery.

I am so sorry for your loss. I will cherish the "Magical Pack" book even more.

My condolences to you and Kara on the loss of your beautiful Ben. I have been owned by several wonderful Great Danes; they give so much in life and leave such big holes when they are gone.

This combo has been my go-to for a while - a corn tortilla with a layer of refried beans topped with some salsa, heated gently in the microwave, and topped with a poached, microwaved egg. I would add cheese, but I really don't need the extra calories.

Keeps my mind off of food for quite a while!

I'm glad our Texas friends are doing OK so far. The rainfall from Harvey is mind boggling. NWS said, "So much rain has fallen, we've had to update the color charts on our graphics in order to effectively map it." https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/2017/national/harvey-photos-before-af...

FWIW, I just received an email from Dressage Extensions - $25 off all bridles with code BRI25, through 7/27.

Just in case anyone needs a nudge from an enabler

According to Jerry's Harness Shop Facebook page the shop closed 5/31/17. I'm sad, also

The Rhino floor sounds promising! I have some links to other non-slip coatings, but I bet Rhino will be less expensive. Another option is cutting grooves in the concrete.

Dressage Extensions has the Royal Oak (used to be made by Jerry's) Weymouth in brown cob for $150 :o , but the brow band and cavesson are white/gold or white/silver lined.

Xan - It is so nice to have you back!

I seem to remember from posts on COTH that you and Wonder Boy bought a house that was a bit of a fixer upper. I would love to hear tales about that adventure, in addition to more updates about your horses!

How exciting! I love the few Eskadron products that I have. Best of luck with your new venture.

Are you still spending time in Switzerland?

Yay - I'm so glad that the end is in sight for you! Let us know when to party on!

Specialized Saddles has a 3-D fitting system that might be worth investigating. I’ve never tried any of their saddles but have seen a rep’s demo at a clinic.

Ugh, that sounds awful! Does their conditional use permit specify how many trips are allowed per day to/from the quarry? If they are violating the permit, get on the agenda for the next county (commissioners?) meeting and show up as a group and make noise and demand a solution? That has worked for r...
