Cooking Up a Storm

Due to the MANY eating restrictions that come with Passover, Kevin and I stayed in all weekend and cooked and baked until we could cook and bake no more. Some of the yummy things we made were...

 homemade matzah balls...

 schnitzel and steamed asparagus...

 homemade chicken soup...

 kosher for Passover noodle kugel...

 and chocolate covered matzah!

Anyone care for leftovers????

Tobi's Diet

Tobi went to the veterinarian a few weeks ago for some shots. Apparently, we have been overfeeding our dog. I didn't even know that was possible! According to the IAMS dog food bag, a dog of Tobi's size should be eating three cups of food. Our vet said that he should only be eating a cup and a half!

We noticed something was wrong when he was having trouble get up after laying down for extended periods of time, and then walking like his hind legs were asleep. The vet thought this was due to his additional weight. 

Now, poor Tobi only gets one cup of food in the morning and one cup at night. I know the vet said a cup and half, but he was having to much trouble adjusting to such a drastic drop in food! Lately, we've been supplementing his evening cup with a small can of green beans (per the vet's suggestion), which he LOVES. 

I never thought I'd be one of those doggy-moms who let their dog get too big...who knew!

San Diego

Last week for Spring Break, Kevin and I traveled to sunny slightly cooler than normal San Diego. My brother and his girlfriend were able to meet us there as well. Some of the highlights of the trip were when we got to visit Sea World and the San Diego Zoo. Here are pictures of some of our favorite animals...it was difficult to narrow it down!
