The Tasty Tuesday That Wasn't

Hi, everyone ... MP here!  Things have been kind of crazy here work-wise (what else is new?) so despite my best intentions we weren't able to execute our planned Tasty Tuesday post, with our continued reviews of the Freshpet products that we were so generously given to try.  I will say that overall my impression of the Freshpet products is very good.  I have found them to be as represented on their website and in the materials I was given to review, and I would feel comfortable buying them and recommending them to other pet owners.  As for more specific reviews, stay tuned ... 

Also, if you want to try either of the two remaining giveaway items, go ahead and comment telling me which one you want to try ... and next Monday I'll do another random drawing to select that winner.  Again, thanks to Freshpet for so generously offering us the products to try and to share with our friends.  

The treats you can choose from should you win are either the Fresh Bones ... 

OR ... 

the Bison Chews 

I do apologize for not being able to complete the planned blog post for today 

... from some of the emails I've received I know there are quite a few of you who are really interested in the reviews of these products, and I promise not to disappoint you in that regard.  I hope you are more forgiving than the gang here.  Phoebe, for one, is thoroughly disgusted with me ... 

Hope everyone enjoyed the Tasty Tuesday Blog Hop hosted by Kolchak and Sugar.  We're definitely sorry that we missed it!  

Mancat Monday and last week's Tasty Tuesday Giveaway Winner

Hi, everybody!  It's me, Tanner!  

Despite several cat-naps today, I'm feeling tired myself ... so I think I'm headed to bed after I finish this blog post! 

Tucker was tired tonight after working all day so he asked me if I would announce the winner of last week's Tasty Tuesday Freshpet Treat Giveaway.  


And the randomly chosen winner is ..............................................  Amber!  Amber, please email us and give us your address so we can send you your Dog Joy Sweet Potato treats!     

And if you want to win your own treats, check back in tomorrow during Tasty Tuesday and leave us a comment telling us whether you would like to try the Dog Joy Fresh Bones ... 

 OR the Bison Chews ... 

Live Strong

I'd like to thank Ann, Maggy, and Zoey at Zoolatry for my great Livestrong picture! 


Mom has had several members of her family who have suffered from cancer.  Our thoughts and prayers go out to all those who are currently battling this disease, as well as their families.  Live Strong!

Saturday Morning Market

Fall is definitely in the air here in the Tampa Bay area.  Which, for the uninitiated, means not that the weather is cool, but that it is, rather, noticeably less hot.  It is supposed to get into the low 60s here overnight, and this morning was about the same, with a high of about 85.  It was also beautiful and sunny, with a nice breeze off the water.  All of which meant that it was a perfect Saturday morning to visit the Saturday Morning Market in downtown St. Pete ... especially since the market is decidedly dog friendly.

The market typically features a wide variety of vendors, live music, and great opportunities to sample yummy food, people watch, and, this time of year anyway, enjoy the beautiful weather.

Nothing says welcome to Progress Energy Park like sidewalk chalk ...

Except perhaps mango wine slushies ... sweet or savory French crepes ... and locally grown produce ...

Tucker & Phoebe were of course not the only attendees of the canine persuasion ... 

But of course they were there ... and as they usually do just about wherever they go ... they had a great time ... 

Hope everyone else had a great Saturday, too!
