Our Mister Ritzy

Last month we lost our lovely cat Ritzy.  Ritzy was my constant companion for nearly 14 years.  I miss him dearly, and so does Rab..... they loved each other - they were best buddies.
Ritzy was one-of-a-kind.
We miss you, Ritzy.

My Papa died September 8, 2012.
He was an incredible man.
I miss you so much, Papa.
I love you, Papa.

Christmas food....

Here's my first shot at Nanaimo bars.  Rab's never had them, so I thought he should have a bit of Canada for Christmas.

Like Autumn back home....

It looks like I brought a (very little) bit of Northwestern Ontario with me.... 

Nine more days...?

Here's one of us in Swindon.....

The Fox....

This little guy usually stays across the street in the field - he walked into our garden at 2:00 this afternoon looking mangy and looking for food.  Good thing the cats are inside.  He left for a little while, but came back to have a nap.
