My husband knew of a biscuit lady on a different forum, called Miss Rigby....is that you?@StarSong I'm the biscuit maker at a local fast food place that used to cater to the elderly and now "caters" to everybody. Most folks use the drive up window since the pandemic started and our dining room was closed. It's open now but not used a lot.
I'm at work at 4 am (!!) cranking out biscuits right and left. At the end of my shift, around 10 am, I often feel like I've made thousands of the darned things. Actually, it's probably only about five to seven hundred. Everybody else there is cross-trained to do every job there is. When I applied I said I'd make biscuits, period. They wanted a biscuit maker so they agreed. Lucky me! Making up the orders, manning (personning?) the grill, prepping? Yuk. The only other thing I do is clean up after myself.
If you have the time please give us a lesson/recipe for those wonderful cake like biscuits used in restaurants. The closet that I can come is with the old Angel biscuit recipes that used a combination of baking soda, baking powder, yeast and buttermilk.@StarSong I'm the biscuit maker at a local fast food place that used to cater to the elderly and now "caters" to everybody.

No. When I registered my dog with the AKC, I discovered he was owned by an Amish guy and sold by the alleged breeder to me. I was furious and told the seller what I thought of him in no uncertain terms. However, I wasn't about to give Aidan back. Aidan is a very healthy dog, at nearly 11, which surprised me. I worked for a Wheaten rescue for several years, and placed many retired puppy mill dogs, so I was a bit worried about that. Aidan is bigger than a breed standard male. His tail is too short - maybe 2" long - and I am completely against docking ears and tails, especially for pets. Aidan weighs about 57 lbs and that little dog weighs 35-40 lbs. He has the merry temperament of Wheatens, in spades.So sorry to hear you are going through chemo, I had no idea. I can tell you love your little dog, I had to see what a Wheaten looks like, so cute.

Anything like this?
And I am wondering if their eyes are more sensitive to light, than other dogs generally? @WheatenLoverAnything like this?
No, they do not have sensitive eyes. What they do have is a remarkable ability to go nuts barking at something no else can see. Actually it's probably at a sound. They have great hearing. My husband used to come home from work and the dog would be at the window when he turned onto our road, a mile away.And I am wondering if their eyes are more sensitive to light, than other dogs generally? @WheatenLover
Please ... filing .... come over here and do mine! The only respite I ever got from it was once, when I had a secretary. Take pity!I am up early today because I went to bed too early last night. I figure I can always take a nap later if I tire out. My plan for today is to catch up on filing a pile of papers that accumulated on my table (which is my desk too). Maybe doing a load of laundry of sheets and towels. Organizing two cupboards that I store food in. Not sure what the rest of the day will be like.
They are so freaking cute! The Labradoodles I've met are great, calm dogs. I think people identify Aidan as a Labradoodle because they aren't familiar with his breed. There are a lot of Labradoodles around here. My dog doesn't pose for pictures. He will be still but he usually looks away. The most unusual Labradoodle I've met loved to watch Disney movies. She would sit on the couch in my dentist's office all day, watching tv, interrupted only by people who wanted to play with her or take her for a walk.There is a resemblance to Labradoodles for sure, but any Doodle owners like our family know the difference instantly...
These are ours ( well my daughters' actually)... we lost the elder one Scruffy.. a couple of years ago age 13..... they are all different sizes, but all with the best temperaments.. especially the white one Digger... he's now 13 and Stan the miniature black doodle is 14 and has dementia now and sleeps 22 hours out of every day, but is in no pain .
these are photos I took myself, Digger actually poses for me when I ask him.. it's true , he loves to have his photo taken
..
this was just days before the scruffster died... he was such an easy going loving dog you would never have known he was ill..no pain because of the meds he was given after several strokes![]()

Okay, I guess you wrote to us, afterwards, so we'll assume you got down in one piece!![]()
Perhaps a trampoline???We would all prefer if you would string up a net below you, before that next big project, @hollydolly
Or perhaps we could each hold onto a corner of a large bedsheet or blanket? Let us know the exact date and time, please.![]()
