Ring out the OLD and Bring in the NEW...

Can you EVEN believe it???????  TODAY is the Last day of 2014.    We had a WONDERFUL Year... and we HOPE that YOU did also..
     NOW we gots to get ready to RING out the OLD and BRING IN THE NEW...    with some TRADITION..
   What do you do fur YOUR New Year's Eve and New Year's DAY   ??
Do you watch the Tournament of Roses Pawrade???    Love that one...
Do you have special FOODS to bring Health and Pawsparity to you and your peeps?

WE in this neck of the woods think that everybuddy needs to have CABBAGE in some form...   USUALLY it is Sauerkraut...   with some sort of PORK cooked in... and served over Mashed Potatoes...    
    These are just two of the heads of Cabbage that WE grew in our garden last summer...  

 Mom choppers it all up....

 Uses this Red thingy to hold the Bags open...    Fills the bags and then FREEZES the Cabbage...

 She does NOT make Sauerkraut... butt she does save all the cores to Boil and add to our tomatoes fur making V-8 Juice...       We buy our KRAUT in a can... and ADD a bit of our OWN CABBAGE to cook in with it... so it isn't QUITE so Sour/SAUER...        Being German Dawgs... we are kinda INTO that Kraut Flavor... esp. when flavored with Big Red Smokeys...  YUMMMMMmmmmm

SO   please SHARE your NEW YEAR Traditions with us...     in your comments..

bet Mayoress Diva Madi has BEANS/Black Eyed Peas.. fur her good luck.

WE would like to WISH EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU...  A VERY MUCH HAPPY NEW YEAR.... FILLED WITH LOVE AND FUN AND PAWSPERITY AND GOOD HEALTH...             Sincerely,     Frankie and Ernie

No SNOW....

OMD i i i i      Blogville is the BESTEST iiiiiiii     we THOUGHT that we were going to have to live FURever using ^^^^^   or  i i iiiiiiii's  to make  THESE !     BUTT thanks to our beloved Blogville FURENDS...   !!!!   we now have a way to make REAL !'s again....   you sent us like 87 BAZILLION of them  to STOCKPILE.... and Chester says Alt 33 will work also...   
      THAT solves THAT problem !     Butt, Alas....   the #1 and !  key is STILL BUSTED !
    and it is ALL "HER" fault...    HER and those CLAMMY CLAWS (sorry Crabby Girrrls, no offense intended) that SHE has ! ! !

This time   LAST year....    we were FREEZING and COVERED with SNOW....

 THIS is what WE think of SNOW and Snow Freaks....      We would have put an Exclamation Point in right here... butt as you know that poor thingy... is   BUSTED...  Deaded..  and STILL BUSTED and although we could have used one of the 87 BAZILLION you sent to us.. or the Alt 33 thingy...  we want to RUB "HER" nose in the fact that SHE is the CAUSE of the #1 and ! key being BUSTED !  Just sayin....             *

 Look how the snow freak EGGS cling to our furs....    (we would have made ANOTHER Exclamation Point... butt of course that Key is STILL  busted)   OR we COULD have used an i  and said it was an AUSSIE  exclamation point..    BaaaaaWaaaah

 WE had to wear our COATS almost every single time we went out...  LAST YEAR... ^ ^ ^ i i i
   BUTT   this is a totally DIFFERENT year...   i i i    

On Dec. 26th.  we actually saw a guy out on a John the Deers... MOWING HIS LAWN...   and the Weather Blabbers are all tellin about  THIS YEAR   December (in OUR neck of the woods) is going to end with only a TRACE of snow having fallen...  and that is NOT USUAL at all...    WE are LOVING IT...    we have had some days that were   50 + °   and a couple where it was in the LOW 60's...        and we have actually had SUN shining on many days...  again NOT THE USUAL for December in OHIO...       We Played Outside all day on the 27th... and even had a Picnic Supper on the Deck...           It was GRRRRRREAT we tell you... just GRRRRREAT...     December has been WARMER than NOVEMBER was...   and in November mom had to SHOVEL SNOW TWICE... and NOT ONCE at ALL in DECEMBER...       Hope this continues for the next 3 months...
     We are REALLY glad that it is a MUCH milder winter this time... beclaws (See Above *) we all know that Ernie and I BOTH have the same thoughts about SNOW and Snow Freaks...

The YapTop.... Keyboard....

You GOTTA SEE this to BELIEVE IT...
     FURST.... do you know the Movie    Donovan's Reef???  the Pawt were they show the SLOT MACHINE that arrived  "BUSTED" and was STILL Busted like 87 years later???    WELL,  Our MOM... used up the  EXCLAMATION POINT and #1 at the top of the Yaptop's Keyboard...  SO MUCH that....SHE BUSTED it....  Yes, SHE did... it is BUSTED...     so you will NEVER see an Exclamation Point in our Comments or Posts EVER again... beclaws that KEY>>> IS>>>
                                                           BUSTED.......   

 BUTT that is Not ALL she has done to OUR Yaptop...   Look at the KEYS...   Some of them have the LETTERS worn Clear OFF....   they are Not BUSTED... (SEE ABOVE)....   BUTT how the Squirrel are we supposed to know what Letter it will make  if it doesn't have that letter ON THE KEY....    we could be sayin  stuffs like...      iall ux wran ab lor zuppfr.       or stuffs like that...
     OMD it is a HORROR...     She has RUBBED them LETTERLESS... with her Heavy Pawed typing.             and of COURSE the    Exclamation point and #1 are STILL BUSTED...

BUTT WAIT.... the IDIOT decided to fix it...   Furst she tried PAINTING the Letters on... with acrylic paint... and that was a BIG a BUSTed as the Exclamation Point and #1 key thingy...
      SO then the NUT CAKE   went to the I'm Crafty store (which she OBVIOUSLY is NOT)  and she bought these STICK ON LETTERS...     fur the KEYS that Have no Letter...  of course the is NO HOPE IN HE$$ of fixing the BUSTED  Exclamation point and #1 Key....   It was USED UP TOTALLY ..... and it is DEADED beyond EVER bringing back...   ^^^^^   We are now TRYING to USE ^^^THESE ^ ^ ^   in PLACE of the TOTALLY and FUREVER DEADED Exclamation Point...
     PITIFUL isn't it????   ^ ^ ^    

 SO..... here is the Keyboard After she stuck the letters on... (all Freakin CROOKED, we might add.^ .. and would put an Exclamation Point in there butt, as you might remember, she BUSTED that thingy...    She Used it to Deadedness, we say    ^ ^ ^ & ^ & ^^&^  

OK... so we were not TOO embarrassed by the result...  BUTT in like 87 minutes... of being under her SWEATY Fingers... that Push too hard to begin with...  

We are RIGHT BACK WHERE this HORROR STARTED...   No E... no T  no  I
No  S ..
no D
 No K
   No L (NOEL... that is NOT a Christmas Pun... it is a Keyboard NightSquirrel)   No C     No N     and of course the STILL BUSTED   Exclamation ^ Point ^ and #1 Key....     Just like the BUSTED  Slot machine from Donovan's Reef...    
   AND do you want to know the WORST of this....    SHE (like the customers in Donovan's Reef,    STILL tries to make the BUSTED  thingy Work...    
   We are going to end  2014 with a Confession..... OUR MOM is   CRAZY.    CRACKED ^^ Totally NUTS ^ ^       Just sayin ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^

HI EVERYBUDDY.... it's ME... ERNIE...  I am going to tell you that old Poem that folks like to say to their Pups and Kitties every year...     READY??

Twas the Night before Christmas and All through the house,
the dogs were all fighting and causing a roust.
   The stuffies were gutted and the pressies all sniffed
  Even Santa Paws' Cookies were getting whiffed..
The Squirrels were all Deaded 
   The Paper all Shredded.
There were Pee Puddles all over the floor..
   and some dog logs left, just INSIDE the door..
There was Barking and HOWLING and and snatching and Stealing
   the tree was coming down... and rolling and reeling..
Then out in the Yard there was a big BOOM
   They all ran to the window, then Outta the ROOM...
Santa Paws had arrived, BUTT the sleigh had tipped OVER
     Pressies were sliding on the top of the snow..  they all dashed to grab what they could recover.
   The fighting was furious
They were all So Very much CURIOUS
   To see what Somebuddy ELSE had, which might be BETTER..
       OH MY....  we see a girrl dog with somethingy grrrrea... gotta GET HER.
BUTT I think you should Know... that Santa Paws is OK...
   He is getting Back in his Sleigh..
The Dogs all heard him exclaim, as he drove outta sight...
     DARN THAT FRANKIE.... he surely can BITE.
The End.

Be SURE to dash over to Murphy and Stanley's Place to see who ELSE has a FFHT story today.        

MERRY CHRISTMAS to Each and Every one of you.
       From Frankie and Ernie and our mom.
