 This adorable cat lives at our vet's office! The other day we watched her curl up and take a nap behind the receptionist's printer! Our little baby boy bunny, Tyler, is staying in their treatment center now receiving post-surgery care for an abscessed tooth. I won't share images of his wound site as it is too disturbing, but here are some shots of his healthy side when we visited yesterday. We are praying for a swift healing from the infection, which is still working it's way out of his body. Thanks ALL for your prayers! We love Dr. Paul Sedlacek and his staff and can't recommend his practice highly enough - Animal Clinic of Morris Plains. They are giving Tyler excellent care!
 Close-up of yellow iris in our backyard And Spring arose on the garden fair,
Like the Spirit of Love felt everywhere; And each flower and herb on Earth's dark breast rose from the dreams of its wintry rest. ~Percy Bysshe Shelley, "The Sensitive Plant"  Wildflowers along the walkway to our front door... That God once loved a garden we learn in Holy writ. And seeing gardens in the Spring I well can credit it. ~Winifred Mary Letts   Would you like some frosting with that? When I recently made cupcakes, I took a photo of this DELICIOUS buttercream frosting. For recipe click here!
 The birds in our yard have had a tough time of it. The baby robins in this nest didn't make it... We were monitoring their downy little heads daily, then sadly, one day they disappeared -- most likely by a predator. HOWEVER, a pair of wrens built a nest in the folds of our a/c unit cover. Hence, we did NOT have air conditioning during this past heat wave... THANK GOD for cooler weather!!! Hopefully the baby birds will be out of the nest in the next few weeks, and we can have our a/c unit back for the next heat wave... :)  UPDATE - June 14 We hear peeping! The baby wren's are making some noise!! Yea! Their nest is almost hidden, so hopefully these little guys will have a chance to grow and fledge!  These just blossomed a few days ago... I'm shocked that they're already fading! Perhaps from all the heat...
 These chocolate cupcakes are the BEST, I think because they're made with buttermilk and two kinds of chocolate...
The recipe is in the book, Hello Cupcake! Highly recommend this book-- It has TONS of great decorating ideas! Wish I could share one with you! :) |
