Thank you in Sasja’s behalf. 😁

Her groomer is so awesome and a lovely person too.

A very cute, small, black and white Havanese dog in a pink fleece sweater sits smiling in the front seat of a Mazda CX-5. The seats are a very very dark brown, but look black where the sun is not shining on them.

Sasja is all smiles after her spa day. She had the world - bath, fur-cut, ears cleaned, and teeth brushed. She’s as soft and cuddly as she looks!

Sadly, today is Farting Friday, and Sasja has been an active participant, so not so fresh-smelling. 😝

Happy early Valentine’s Day, Jasper! Tink sent you lovely presents! 💚

Jasper! Greetings from Canada! I’m glad it’s cooler for you today! 💚

That was the most wonderful thing I’ve seen today! Each pup had their own thing going on! So cute! 💚

Try malt vinegar with salt on the fish like they do in northern England! It’s the best!

A small black and white Havanese dog in a green and black plaid sweater sits on my lap, looking out the window with the sun in her eyes as it’s a very sunny day.

Little Sasja is enjoying the super sunny January afternoon during this sunny patch we’re having up here in the Fraser Valley.

She’s a bit sleepy today - she was playing paws to the wall at day care yesterday - so we enjoyed so many cuddles.

What an awesome photo of DJ flying in to say “hi” and brighten our day! 💚

I find it bizarre how people in a country actively supporting current genocides and threatening new ones think telling us Canada was - and is still - terrible to Indigenous people is a gotcha. Co-opting others’ pain to gain fake Internet pain? Disgusting.

Which were the best sniffs? Where we live in Canada, Sasja especially likes the discarded chicken bones, snowberries, and mushrooms on the trail in the forest.

Love Jasper! Such a sweetie! 💚

A small black and white Havanese dog sits on her daddy’s knee on the car. She’s wearing a blue plaid sweater and her tongue is out as she’s happy. She is very cute.

Sasja wishes you all a Happy Boxing Day! We feasted, we snacked, we watched as many MST3K Christmas movies as we can, and we had a turkey dinner with lovely sandwiches to come. Seems pretty perfect to me! 🎄

Hope you and yours had great fun!

They are such adorable elves! Thank you for sharing such cuteness!

Hope you feel better soon. It’s awful being sick.

Especially for children. Three deaths in Ottawa alone. Everyone should protect themselves and each other by masking.

I share your wish too. Let’s both wish for more kindness and love this year. 💚

Oh no, that’s horrible and incredibly disappointing. Why can’t people just let trans people just live in peace and joy or however they want?

How can we support you and your work if we’re in Canada? I see you have something on Patreon for Cosmic Shambles? What else can we subscribe to for you? I’m so sorry. I love your podcast.

Oh no, should I ask about her?

Happy Won’t Look Wednesday!

Sasja is not looking in her new sweater, that sadly unravelled after one wearing, but was still very cute.

Fortunately, she has a few other festive fits she can wear over this holiday season and beyond!

A small black and white Havanese dog stares into the camera, appearing as if she’s in thought. She is named Sasja, and she has very dark eyes, black nose, and white fur around her nose.

My wonderful husband, @raymondnichols.bsky.social, has been learning more about photography this year, and took this photo of Sasja in a pensive moment on a recent walk.

No doubt she’s pondering big issues like, “Where is my treat?” and “Where is my treat?”

Is there any way to buy from you directly? I’m in Canada, and I can pay you for the shipping.

Wow, what a beautiful dress! Happy half birthday!

I discovered the fun of cosmetic chemistry at 36. At 38, I took HS chem. At 39, I started a cosmetic chemistry website and started taking university science courses. This year, at 55, I finished my skin care science certificate with more courses planned. From English grad to this? 😁

Forest pup is beautiful! Such soulful eyes!

Oh no, I was hoping you could go on that trip. Maybe you can visit another time?

It’s hard to resist blackberries, so I don’t blame her! The ones across the street are two or three days away from being perfect.

Looks like you had a wonderful day by the seaside!

A very cute small black and white Havanese dog named Sasja sits on an ottoman, looking curious about a potential walk in the forest.

Sasja just heard the words, “Do you want to go to the forest?” and is hoping this means a fun morning at Hillkeep Regional Park on Chilliwack Mountain!

We are thimbleberries and were attacked by mosquitos, but a fun time was had by all.

A small black and white Havanese dog with a pink harness and purple leash named Sasja sits under a garbage can to get some shade during a forest walk. She has her tongue out, which is adorable.

It was a little warmer than Sasja expected on our forest walk. We were taking photos of hair and beard oils for my latest formulating e-book, and before we knew it was 30°C! Not good for little pups, so we picked her up and ran home quickly. Eek!
