A Picnic and a Birthday

Dottie’s annual picnic took place at her house this year and happened to fall on Theresa’s birthday. What could I do but chronicle the action? Here is a peek at the festivities with a big THANKS to Dottie and HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Theresa.

Don’t miss the video from my friend Ken to help you decide Dottie’s fate.

A Fine Feast! Dottie Does It Again

Dottie puts together a “little” picnic every year and has found the perfect spot for it at Henry Cowell State Park. This year there was a new participant, Chloe, who had a wonderous fine time, if I am any judge of dogs. Her human companions did too!

For openers there was a little brie to go on some crackers, some veggies (including a personal favorite, asparagus) with appropriate dips and some crunchable, munchable corn chips. Wash it down with a little champagne under a canopy of trees with a river nearby on a balmy autumn day–

Chloe, the dog, settled right in while we continued on with perfect barbecued chicken, two salads, and, of course, Dottie’s homemade bread. The table decor was not too shabby either, with light blue table cloth, blue checkered napkins, dark blue plates, and a few white cyclamens And dessert and coffee, a walk along the river, what more can I say. The day was not lost on either man or beast.
To our hostess, a thousand thanks for one day in a million.
