A few science projects we've been working on around here lately...
~ toilet training the cat: FAILED
So, the toilet training bombed. But it was completely hilarious to watch Diesel watch the cat on the instructional video.

~ Vibram 5 Fingers for Tamara: SUCCESS! (I got the black ones and love 'em)

~ adding a new link (Diesel the cat) in the Pugmire food chain: SUCCESS! (= no fatalities)

~ Gracie (the border collie) and Diesel (the cat) becoming best friends: IN PROGRESS

"You are IN MY SPACE! Back OFF!"

~ hot water + bubbles + Tamara = SUCCESS!

~ Diesel the cat becoming more comfortable around the dogs: SUCCESS!

~ Jonathan's occasional cooking attempts: SUCCESS!!
(these are two of our favorites, slow-cooker peanut butter chicken above, and pineapple chicken below)

~ can the Christmas tree stay green until spring? SUCCESS!
(I have to say, I found this very strange and slightly freaky... all I did was leave it in its stand out on the deck...)
but then, we're pretty okay with strange and freaky around here.

beautiful...

The world has enough women who are tough;
we need women who are tender.
There are enough women who are coarse;
we need women who are kind.
There are enough women who are rude;
we need women who are refined.
We have enough women of fame and fortune;
we need more women of faith.
We have enough of greed;
we need more goodness.
We have enough of vanity;
we need more virtue.
We have enough popularity;
we need more purity.
