Yesterday, the family went to see their dear friend Linda, the mom of Cinnabar; we couldn't come because Cinnabar has been unwell and although she is better, it would have been too much excitment if we had been there as well. So we stayed home, watched TV and ate dog biscuits, so we can't complain.
Her favourite spot is the kitchen, she loves eating and eats almost everything (except lettuce), unlike us who are rather fussy eaters - we think carnivores like us are not suited to eat fruits and vegetables !
Cinnabar is also the name of a perfume...
and a beautiful red mineral (Mercury Sulfide)
Our thoughts and prayers are with the Japanese people going through such a terrible time, and in particular for Nana, Uyanga and their Mom who live in Sendai, one of the worst affected towns. Unfortunately we don't have any news, all we know is that their Mom is on vacation but sshe doesn't have access to the Internet.
Our Mom would like to thank everyone for their wishes and kind words for her birthday, she was really touched.
She will be happy to share her love and help anyone who contacts her.
Dogs do not waste time brooding over the past or anxiously awaiting the future, they are always in the present

Look at her, she is really gorgeous !
She has a beautiful collar :
How sweet it is to be patted, there are never enough hands for patting...

Our lovely friend Peggy sent us some beautiful necklaces
What do you mean, they're not for me, they're for Mom ?
OK then, I'll have this beautiful cap
She also sent us some beautiful post cards :
This is the Panama canal :
Inside a beautiful church :
And a decorated cart wheel from Costa Rica :
Thank you so much Peggy and Mom !
If you don't know Peggy, go and say hello to her at her blog.
Today is Labour day in Victoria, and the day of the parade of the Moomba festival.
The official translation of the Aboriginal word Moomba is "let's get together and have fun", however it was later found that the word "Moom" means buttocks and "Ba" means on, but it was too late to change the name !
It is also the 30th anniversary of Dad's participation in the Moomba parade, dressed as a "bella ragazza" which means beautiful girl in Italian; well we can see the girl but we're not sure about beautiful, what do you think ?
The next year, Dad wanted to participate in the Moomba waterskiing championships
But he didn't get in, we wonder why...

Cinnabar is lovely! What a beautiful collar she has, too. I'm glad she's feeling better.
ReplyDeleteYour dad must be a pretty funny guy! I am not sure he's going to be able to count on dressing as a lady as a disguise if he needs one!

Cinnabar is so beautiful!! Have a wonderful week! Lots of love, Holly and mom
ReplyDeleteHi Friends, we're so happy that your have received and enjoyed the presents we sent.
ReplyDeleteWe want to share with you a little piece of history about the the Golden altar that you can see in the post card. The Golden Altar, made of carved mahogany and covered with gold, was saved from the violence of the pirate's Morgan in Old Panama in 1671. It was moved in 1677 to its present site, the Church of San José in Panama City.
I'm like Cinnabar, I like the carrots, apples and lettuce. Those are the only human foods that mom give me.
About our friends in Japan, we are worried about them too, and we hope they are fine and know soon news about them.
Enjoy your Labor Day.
Saludos Peggy and Mhathy
