Lucy got a Jacket!

 

I wasn't really sure how I felt about dressing up dogs. In Korea everyone dressed up dogs and it wasn't just for fun.  I occasionally bought Lucy clothes. (she used to have a taekwondo ourfit) I never seriously bought her too many clothes or dressed her for more than a photo shoot or halloween. When she had her surgery to get neutered I did make sure she wore a coat on the way home. (we had to walk in the winter, and she had had 3 days recovery there, so she was good to walk)

Anyways, I read on the internet that small dogs do sometimes need to wear coats in cold conditions. My internet research told me that if the temperature reaches below 0 degrees, is out for extended periods or the dog is small with little fur, it might be good to have it wear a coat. Lucy has been going on walks with me everyday, and I have a feeling that this winter is going to be a cold one. So the other day Nick and I were at Winners and we saw these jackets. I figured I'd rather have a jacket than not, especially if it was really cold out.

So volia! Lucy has an orange jacket. What do you think? Am I crazy to make my dog wear clothes? I think it's an idea that Canadians have trouble with, and I'm sure I'll be mocked by my friends. I chose orange because Lucy is already a ginger and I couldn't have her clashing. 

What do you think? I'm open to honesty!

Chicken Burger

I went to visit dad the other day and we stopped into the Chicken Burger for dinner. It's the oldest running drive-in diner in Canada, established 70 years ago. I really love the restaurant and always order a Chicken with Mayo, and a coke slushie. The chicken is delicious, and the bun is always warmed and super soft.

Family enjoying their meal. Moments before this they had all left their food to go to the bathroom and another little boy tried to climb up the chair and eat the little girls frenchfries.
Terrible product shot. This really doesn't look good at all, but I assure you it's delicious.


This is the weight machine. It tells you how much you weigh and your fortune. I'm sure it doesn't work any more but I always used to jump on as a kid.


I forget what day we went but there was a car show. Tons of old beautiful cars all around the parking lot
.
This car has no door handles!


I want this one.

Dads Jeep. He's trying to fit in.


Which seat should I take?

Is this going to be a reoccuring theme?

Ugh....

First I burnt a pumpkin pie.

Then I made some cookies that resemble hockey pucks.

Now this... a burnt chicken pot pie.


Nick's mom Judy said it might be the oven. I'm going to go with that. Our oven sucks... Or I need to buy a timer!
