Cartman's Christmas 2008

Since the oven was hot for my first attempt to bake a bread (which turned into 芝麻大饼), I decided to bake Cartman some biscuit using the mixes he got as gift from Aunt last year. It's really simple recipe, plain, no add-ons. Surprisingly he liked his cookies very much after they were done. He ate many and begged for more. THANKS FOR YOUR GIFT, AUNT. And I found I might be more capable to bake for Cartman than for ourselves/guests.

"good to see you too, Cartman!"

We was there in Virgin Island last week . It was sweet to come home and be welcomed by the little white dog with frantic shower of kisses and jumping into the face. We have missed our sweet little dog!

my fault

He kept whining for more than 10 minutes, he awkwardly sat in the chair which is in front of the bed, and concentrating on whining.

"Cartman, STOP IT"!

My plead didn't work. Then, I knew why next time I raised head from my computer. The room smelled like his pee-pee, and he did pee in the middle of the bedroom.

Oh, I forgot to bring him outside for the before-bed pee-pee. That's why he was all awkward and whining (instead of bothering me). And of course he didn't manage to hold it at the end...

We rushed downstairs, outside and finish the routine. He became much back to live, and happily started to bother me in a room still smelled full of dog pee-pee.

Betta fish gone

Stan was gone. It lasted more than three months. Sorry, I don't know why you jumped out of the bowl, I should not have put so much watch into it which allowed you to hop out. I should have used a nicer bigger container. I am sorry.

Another unsuccessful fish raising experience.

missing granny

My parent-in-laws stayed with us for 20 days in November. Cartman has enjoyed their companies, especially he would get food when he begged to them. When they were here, Cartman usually fell into sleep as soon as we finished his after-dinner walk. He was so much wore off by his two play-mates at the day and need his 20 hours sleep a day very badly.

This was his face the first early morning when they left.

"you guys are no fun, I want grannies back... mow..." (pretending to be a sweet nice cat...)

"Cartman, that is your toy, not your food!!!"
