tater

We're all familiar with the sign along Interstate 82, which, as motorists pass by it, it is welcoming them to Yakima and identifying it as 'The Palm Springs of Washington'. Well, did you know, that Palm Springs is the Yakima of California?

My dog, Tater, is a Golden Retriever who will celebrate his 2nd birthday at the end of next month. It's hard to believe that he joined our family almost two years ago when he was just 7 weeks old. We couldn't be more in love with this goofy, hole-digging, hair-shedding, pond-jumping, sock-eating, snuggly animal.

It's pretty universal that pets, whether dog or cat or ferret or pot-bellied pig, love to eat. What seems to be a favorite, in general, among these often furry friends of ours, is that they frequently express a preference for eating whatever it is that we're eating.
