Coco is all ready for 7 in the city with her new pink jersey representing her favorite Pittsburgh Steeler Ben #7 Roethlisberger. This item was found at the West Hills Pet center westhillspetcenter.com. Coco hasn’t decided what to wear as costume for Halloween this year only because we are not ready to jump into fall. Let’s not even bring up x-mas. If you are looking for clothing to keep your pet warm or if you just need a good laugh, I recommend visiting spoilyourdogonline.com.

Quaker Instant oatmeal in Notations Clothing Company Mug

If it has happened to one of us it has happened to us all, the infamous microwave explosion.  Some people clean up after themselves and others leave it behind for the janitor. I on the other hand prefer to document the destruction. Here is an image of my maple brown sugar instant oatmeal flowing like lava over my notations clothing company coffee mug. Ahhhh… what a beautiful site. I just started this oatmeal diet so I can lose a few pounds and fit back into my favorite and only $200 jeans. Well, if these are the results I can only imagine what a regular consistant diet of this cereal will unfold.

This has been the most enjoyable pleasure I have had in years. Posting images of my dog in costume online and reading my friends and user comments. I have never respected anybody who would dress a dog, but this attitude changed when little baby chihuahua

Friends and I joined the rest of the city in the Celebration of the 250 years of the Pittsburgh region. 250 years ago British General John Forbes, Colonel George Washington and troops gained possession of the Fort Duquesne from the French where the Allegheny, Ohio, and Monongahela rivers meet. This began the settlement of Pittsburgh that became known as the gateway to the west, and today as, “America’s Most Livable City”. For this special milestone in history the city slogan is “imagine what you can do here”.

If you were unable to attend the fireworks display I’m sorry but you missed out on an amazing show. There were over ten locations that were shooting off fireworks from the center of the city. The Fort Pitt Bridge, The Steel Building, The Point, Highmark,  were just a few of these locations. I was able to get a table in the Monterrey restaurant in Mt. Washington thanks to my super friend Carolyn. This was an amazing place to have dinner and watch this once in a lifetime theatrical display of lights.  All though any thing is possible I “IMAGINE” that the city will not ever do this again.
