An Expensive Day...

Well what an expensive day, Max the 4 year old golden lab cut his foot on a stone in our driveway on Sunday. After cleaning it and bandaging it any double socking him (wish I'd taken a picture of that) it was still slightly coming through the sock....and having a new house and new carpet blood spots are unacceptable!!. Most people would say a dog inside in unacceptable, but he's regularly bathed and they ....yes there is 2 our other is a black lab called Abby. They are only allowed on a mat that we have for them and they sleep in the garage at night. Anyway back to the story. We decided to take Max to the vet today to have the foot looked at, never in our wildest dreams did we think it would cost $420 to have 5 stitches!!!. At least it will heal now, he is not a happy boy with bandage.




I was going to cook a casserole for dinner tonight but as we did not get home until 4.30 it was too late. I bought some schnitzel on the way home and we had that with wedges and a salad. The salad was really nice considering the combination. I am pretty creative when it comes to making a salad with Mesculin I just turn to the fridge/pantry and grab. Tonight was mesculin, celery, Gruyere cheese, grated carrot and gold kiwifruit.



We love tomatoes on salad but at $9.99 a kg I can live without them at the moment, plenty more things that can go on instead of tomatoes.



I took a picture of Kevin's dinner just because I could....... It looked better than in the photo.
