It's a hot August in northeast Oklahoma! The 116 degrees F was while the car was still parked after starting the car; the actual temperature was 103 degrees F this afternoon.

Celebrating four years of Beagle freedom! 💗 

On August 3, 2022, we adopted a three year old Beagle who had spent the first three years of her life as a breeding dog at a facility that supplied Beagles to laboratories worldwide for animal testing. 

Zara Beagle was one of nearly four thousand Beagles rescued from that facility in Virginia.

pork butt!

I did this pulled pork recipe in the oven at 325 degrees for six hours.

I made the barbecue sauce, but omitted the chipotle chile powder.
