Our weekend treat – Junk food

It’s time for our weekend treat again!!!  Wheeeeeeee~ This week, Mummy got really really lazy and decided to buy something off the shelf.  Being a sucky for dog-related stuff, Mummy couldn’t resist buying these while at Cold Storage.  At first glance, Mummy knew that these probably won’t be any good quality treats. But she was bought over by the bowls and decided that they were worth the money anyway. #mymummyisasucker I got first pick!  So of course, I’m gonna take ORANGE! Since it is my colour after all. Plus, it’s cheese flavoured! How to say no. Pecan ah ma looking pleased with her green bowl! Plus it’s peanut butter!! Yumz. I couldn’t wait any longer and headed straight for the treats the moment Mummy opened it.  She ended up having to pull me away. “Noooo..it’s mine!!”   Enticing isn’t it? They looked great!  Pecan ah ma agrees man. Check out her drool! Tsk tsk tsk So un-ladylike. Unfortunately, a closer look at the packaging showed that these yummy treats were made using fillers that are …

Made with Love – Carrot Juice and Yoghurt Pupsicles!!

Thanks to Mummy’s willingness to indulge us, we’ve come to expect something special every weekend. (Hee, yap, weekends are my cheat days k!) Like other Saturdays, we sat around restlessly waiting for something good to pop up in front of us. But unlike other weekends, half the day had passed and there was still no signs of anything spectacular! So, we decided to speak up for our rights and demand something from Mummy. Unable to resist our adorable faces, Mummy finally lifted her butt of the sofa (yes, we are all couch potatoes), walked into the kitchen and whipped out her new toy – Zoku’s Mini Pop Molds! She also took out a packet of Mixed Carrot Juice and some low-fat yoghurt. Within seconds, she was done! (Diao~ we couldn’t understand why she didn’t do it earlier! Especially since it was so easy!! Boooo~) Well, at least we got to lick the almost empty yoghurt cup clean! Forgiven~ By now, we were so excited and couldn’t wait for the real treat. Only to be told …

Made with Love – Bento for Dogs!

We were a little doubtful when Mummy offered to make us dinner. I mean, how not to after the traumatic incident of the jelly. The Apple Jelly ended up okay, but its appearance was an appetite killer.  Hence, we were a little wary about what to expect. But we did what she told us and collected our bento boxes and handed them to her.  The truth was… she is after all the hand that feeds us, so we LL (no other choice). We did feel a little bad when we realized how much effort Mummy went into planning this. Mummy, being a Daiso Auntie, actually went on a shopping spree just to purchase useless items to decorate our bento.  (Okay, now, we are seriously getting a little worried…) Just when we were becoming increasingly uncomfortable about Mummy’s dinner proposition, we discovered a faint light at the end of the tunnel.  And it came in the form of three lovely ladies!  Yap, Mummy’s awesome colleagues (including my beloved Mother-in-law) actually swung by to give Mummy a hand. …

Apple Jelly for dogs!

We know something was cooking when Mummy started cutting apples into cubes in the kitchen! Plus, she also took out her sam-sized cooking pot.  And we were right! Guess what’s on the menu…. It’s… APPLE JELLY FOR DOGS! Wheeeeeee~ You are probably wondering where she got the inspiration from… Mummy bought a dog jelly mould donkey years ago from Amazon (Most likely because she needed items to hit the minimum USD125 for free shipping). After it had collected dust for a good few months, she decided to finally put it into good use. (And we are not complaining!) (Source) A quick google and Mummy realized that there really isn’t any simple recipes for jellies for dogs. Hence, she decided to come up with one herself using whatever she could find in the kitchen. She used chicken stock, apples and gelatin.  Simple as that.  And it looks promising too! We were so excited to get started on our dessert till the horrid news struck. Yap, we had to leave it in the chiller overnight. #Notimpressed After …

Sam’s weight loss Diary – Day 1

My annual checkup with Dr Vanessa brought shitty news to my parents.  In a span of just less 1.5 years, I’ve grown from 5.8kg to.. *Drum rolls* 7.3kg! OMG That’s like 20% of my body weight!!!! BUT BUT BUT… before everyone panics, hush. Dr Vanessa added that my sexy waistline is still prominent. Hence, I AM STILL OF ACCEPTABLE WEIGHT! It’s just that, maybe it’s for the better of everyone that I try my best not to gain any more weight. Of course, meando Daddy took the opportunity to call me Fatty. Boooo~ As for Mummy, she decided it’s time for me to go on a diet. Less treats, less food, more exercise. (I’m only agreeable to point number 3, I veto the other two.) To get started, I decided to join Mummy on her Fitness Blender programs.  We started with Fitness Blender’s Puppy Workout. Unfortunately, stupid Mummy couldn’t concentrate and kept laughing.  Tsk tsk tsk. I was so focused lor. Oh well, I shall venture on my own then. I’ve put on my shoes …
