was on the menu tonight. Our friends Trish and dog Sake stopped by tonight for a brief visit. Zoe jealously guarded her leather bone from Sake, who cared so little about it she gave it to Zoe a year ago! They were very sweet together. Sake’s an alpha dog, rescued as feral. Zoe’s beta and needy and gets her way by hook or by crook.
Tomorrow the Trail Riders come into town for the big Rodeo parade on Saturday. These guys are my peeps, with barbecue and everything. I just bring along a case of beer. Deputy Dawg is legendary and last year his wagon threw an axle so he spent the night welding something together so he could be in the parade. Hope all is well this year. I love talking with him about food and with the kids as well.

We love these guys! Our street is closed Saturday and I’ll make sure I have provisions to get by. While I hang with the Trail Riders, Jim’s going to invite girlfriend Trish over to compete on PS3 games. Better her than me. I’ll make sure they have dinner/snacks. The best part for me is watching them come back from the parade on our street. We stand out there and cheer them in. Only in Texas, I know. Best, Dee

Trish is going to stop by tomorrow with a horrendously pink cowboy hat I intend to wear. It’ll go with my new hairdo. Thanks girlfriend!
