Executive Chef...sounds like a wonderful job. I LOVE food and had my own small Catering service years ago...helped pay my kids way through college and weddings:) If I was 20 years younger I would be a personal chef! On my days off...I cook!

I saw your comment about Julia's fluffy, Chloe so I had to look at Linus. He is a beauty.  I am on my second fluffy and my current boy is the great nephew of my previous girl.

Haha! I would think the contrary: A woman who is an executive chef (aka: cooks wonderful food), obsessed with dogs means more time for man to watch sports all the time and not be asked any questions -- lol

I hear it was quite a scare with the earthquakes. I'm very glad it was more scare than damage.

I was in VA once white water rafting. Absolutely gorgeous country.

My Tri, Truman use to attempt to herd our Jack Russell, Stuart. Not pretty. They respect each others boundaries now.

If you're ever in Michigan, you are more than welcome to stop for the harvest and show a fancy dish or two.

It has been my dream to go to culinary school but it wasn't my reality. I think I'm better and growing the food.

Enjoy and beautiful family - Yvonne

Curious - Did your tri's come from same breader? Beautiful pet family you have.
