This is my new bff, Ruby. She came over with her parents to my dinner party on Sunday. It took her a little while to warm up to me but eventually she decided she liked me. I was wrapping up the prime rib and making sure everyone had their food. Her mommy microwaved her some mac & cheese and while she was chowing down she looks up and tells her parents, "That lady makes great dinner!"
This is my brother and sister-in-law's home and I think it's adorable. It's on a cute, quiet street in a small Pennsylvania town. The block of homes is perfectly post-war, each one is the same size with subtle differences like dormers or not. They're all set back the same distance from the street with perfectly sized lawns and square bushes.
Stanley was out in the backyard when we got to my sister's house last night and didn't know we were there for a few minutes. But once he saw us through the window he started dancing and barking, "Hey, let me in!" He was more than a little excited to see us.
We played for a little while and he ran circles around me. It was fun to get love from a big dog. It really made me miss Henry and Lola, I think Stan would have fun with them.
