a start to a project i was starting for Oliver!

i used just a few basic file folders and some 12 x 12 patterned papers and a few embellishments here and there and created a Pet File Folder for all his info...

i took him for his first Vet visit this morning!

Dr. Sheri Gould from Best Friends Animal Hospital gave him his first 'check up' and he was sooooo good! perfectly heathly and happy little bunny!

congratulations to Denys who won season 3 SYTYCD Canada last night!!!

( dang, i love this show....every season...my little addiction...)

and here's something totally random...

courtney has been wanting to try a fresh pomegranite now for months...

the thing is, which i didn't know until yesterday, that pomegranites are a fall fruit.

so we bought one to try.

and after an instructional Youtube video on how to cut the darn thing...here's my own

version of how to cut a pomegrantie...hahaha....it's really quite a procedure...

*****pomegranite juice will stain ANYTHING and EVERYTHING it touches****

1) if you have a wooden cutting board, cover with paper towel so you don't stain it. i have clear galss cutting boards, so no troubles there.

- slice the top and bottom off ( like you would a tomato )

2) make several from outside the fruit towards the seeds. you will feel the knife cut through the tough skin in to the soft middle

3) ( this is a tip from the video to reduce chance of staining from juice )

fill a bowl with water, hold pomegranite under water and pull apart seeds from the skin. the seeds will sink to the bottom of the bowl.

4) use a strainer of some kind to scoop out only the seeds from the bowl.

discard the skin and peel.

...you are now ready to enjoy a little bowl of delicious ( and full of probiotics ) pomegranite seeds!!! YUMMY!!!

* a little work, but so worth it in the end...

so, now you know how to do it yourself!

you can also garnish your fall meals and salads with some seeds too!
