Baby It's Cold Inside



With Christmas carols coming out of everything with a speaker this month, you are bound to get a few stuck in you head. Well, for me, I have a the song "Baby, It's Cold Outside" in my head for some reason. Maybe it's because the song is so true at the moment.

Now, I know that for everyone in the northern or eastern part of the United States, you would love to have my weather. Our average at the moment is around 45-50 degrees, but it will get
up to 60 at some point and 80 on a rare day! However, to me, this is freezing! [The 40º not the 80º 😉] Since a normal summer day for us is in the 90s or the 100s, we are about to freeze to death here! At the moment, I am wearing a t-shirt, a light hoodie, and a sweater all at the same time and am still chilled! Our dogs don't like the temperature change right now either, because it is both cold and rainy, which means they can't stay outside very long. We noticed that they both felt cold inside one night, actually, so we tried to give them covers like this.

However, this last only an average of five minutes before they stand up and it falls off. We also tried to put on some doggie sweaters, which Bo doesn't mind much, but which Argos pulls off almost immediately. So, as you can see, neither I nor my dogs are particularly good at staying warm in the cold weather.

Just thought I would share the temperature around us right now and some funny pictures of my dogs. How is your weather right now? Feel free to leave a comment below or on Facebook with any thoughts or opinions you have.

    It is definitely "cold"! I don't miss the 100's from summer, but I wouldn't mind staying in the 70's and 80's for a while. And, those sure are some cute puppies!

Monday Meatloaf

So, on Saturday I gave you a simple baked potato recipe that goes great with a lot of dishes. One recipe that we tried it with was Alton's meatloaf recipe. Click the image to enlarge. There are so many types of meatloaf recipes out there, handed down from generations, that there is no "right way" to make a meatloaf. This is the recipe Alton Brown gave in his cooking guide in the roasting section. Here are the ingredients you will need:

With Apologies to Robert Frost

I have a class for school called Speech. This is supposed to help me learn how to stand properly while speaking, pronounce words properly, and so on. The most recent section is on how to give meaning and feeling to a  poem when reading one out loud. My teacher, Mrs. Autrey, has been reciting poems to us as examples, and she uses a variety such as happy poems, sad poems, thoughtful and so on. One of them that caught my attention was a funny remake of the famous poem "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" by Robert Frost.   The original is one of my favorite poems, and I have always loved the other poetic works of Robert Frost. Here is the original poem: Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening By Robert Frost   Whose woods these are I think I know.    His house is in the village though;    He will not see me stopping here    To watch his woods fill up with sn...

Dolphins: Smart and Friendly

This is the second magazine article I want to share with you from Let Creation Speak , and this one is called "Dolphins: Smart and Friendly." I love dolphins, so I thought I would share some facts about them through this article. Enjoy!        The sign says "How to Meet the Dolphins. First, don't touch their blowholes. Also, don't put your hand on their heads. Pet them on their sides. Most importantly, if a dolphin offers you a fish, take it. It's a gift of friendship." This sign is posted on a beach called Monkey Mia in Australia. Every day
