Petits riens

First Photos

I love that the shutter on this camera is so quick. Images are really clear, too. Byron, above, in a pensive mood. I’d hoped get outdoors on Sunday to really take the camera through her paces, but heavy rain forced an indoor day.

Poor Coco hasn’t been feeling well, hasn’t been her usual agile self and on Saturday seemed to be in pain, especially when she moved. A trip Saturday night to the emergency vet yielded nothing, x-rays showed no broken bones or injuries. They sent her home with some pain medicine which seems to have helped, and we’re seeing our regular vet on Tuesday.

For the LA Peeps

(These are iphone snaps, NOT the new camera).  The weekend before last, we went to the grand opening of Semi Sweet Bakery in downtown LA. Le monsieur knows one of the bakers/owners, so we had to go and sample some of the wares.

Bacon cinnamon rolls. Yes, bacon.

The goodies were selling out quickly by the time we arrived

Everything looked so tantalizing! We picked up some of the Red Velvet Dingalings and Peanut Butter Dingalings, a slice of apple pie and a couple of cookies to take home.  Utterly decadent and delicious!

But before we toddled our desserts home to enjoy, we walked a few blocks to Wood Spoon LA for some outstanding Brazilian food.  Even at 6pm, the place was packed with Fashion District types, and after our first dishes arrived, it was obvious why.  Delicious food at very reasonable prices, and a fun, casual atmosphere makes Wood Spoon a winner, and worth a trip downtown.

  1. if I had a friend who owned a bakery, I would be in BIG trouble. Looks like such a temptation. Glad there is nothing seriously wrong with your dog…have a wonderful holiday week!!

  2. A beautiful first photo. The fluffyness of the dog’s fur combined with the blur a open aperture provides and the crisp details in its face.
    The most important advantage imho isn’t just the quick shutter BUT the quick autofocus that enables you to capture moments. And not a moment later.

  3. Love your King Charles Cavaliers! I didn’t know you had them (although why would I?) They are such sweet dogs, and so wonderful with children. They’re very popular in NYC, but I almost never see them here.

  4. Naturally the pictures of your dogs interest me.
    Darlings.
    What made you choose just this breed for your family? I ´m nosy as always.
