Sunday Dog, “Sandy” Loves Boston!

… and, Boston loves her right back! Who wouldn’t? Sandy has the sweetest face with a personality to match. Although she only arrived a couple of weeks ago, this 10-year-old Beagle beauty told us she feels right at home.

A North Shore transplant, Sandy is very calm and loving with a quiet confidence that makes her a hit with everyone she meets– including her new housemate, a meow named Dunhill.

Sandy exchanging "Hello Sniffs" with former Sunday Dog stars, King (rt) & Poppy (in back)!

Even though Sandy doesn’t play favorites and thoroughly enjoys meeting other dogs and people, we have to believe that she has a slight preference for friends with leashes.

Although in the country Sandy had the beach and a big yard, she’s quickly learning that the entire city is her new playpen with exciting, new places to explore!

We can tell by the look on that face that Sandy is happy in her new, loving home and obviously enjoys savoring the moment. Welcome to Boston, Sandy! You’re now an official, “city girl.”

Sparkling Splits Are Always Ready for a Celebration

For our Happy New Month toast this time around, we're enjoying a bottle of Piper-Heidsieck. We didn't have to remember to chill it because we think a split of a great sparkler should always reside in the refrigerator. You never know when you'll want to celebrate!

We'll do a review of the Piper in a future month. We want to taste a split (half-bottle), 750 ml, and magnum– if we can find one– to determine whether (as some suggest) bottle size affects the taste.

But, for September, we just wanted to get you to think about stocking up on a few splits of sparkle. Then, when the day produces a small win, a favorite person stops by, or the first-of-the-month sneaks up on you, you'll be ready to pop the cork and bring on the cheer!

Here's more about Our Sparkling Resolution

Alimentum is Our Friday Link

Those of us who love to express our creativity through food also love to find publications and websites that collect great work to inspire us. Alimentum is one of those sites.

They say:

"Since 2005 Alimentum has been delighting readers with stories, essays, and poems that use food as a kind of muse to inspire memory, ideas, humor, joy, melancholy, triumph and reflection. The works are not just about what’s on your plate. They explore our deep personal connection to how we eat, what we eat, and the very primal part food plays in our lives.."

We say:

We have been following and enjoying this carefully curated collection since its early days as a print publication. There are still some early copies tucked amid our cookbooks. Most were passed along to other food lovers. Now that it's available online, get over there and explore the site.

Here's the site.
