I'm Up To A Challenge

I have never participated in a blog challenge before but here goes...

HERE IS A CHALLENGE (from my blogger friend Granny Annie at http://granan10.blogspot.com/2013/12/here-is-challenge.html )

Try taking a selfie of you and your pet/s.  Let me know in the comments that you have posted your efforts and I will link you on my blog.  If you don't have any pets, let's see the inside of your refrigerator.  You can tell I'm not preparing any Christmas dinner.  Are you?

My cell phone is a cheapie... only good for talking and texting so I can't do a selfie but here is a photo of my 2 dogs and my grand-dog, who lives with us.  Zoe and Gracie DO have eyes, but they are asleep and in need of a grooming so right now you can't see their eyes.  Andy is the sweetest Beagle ever. Gracie is the black blob next to Andy.  It is hard to get a good photo of her. Zoe blends in with my couch.

Yes, I am cooking.  I don't know who might be here but I am cooking a turkey, dressing and fixings. I bought a turkey at Thanksgiving but I did not cook it since I later learned that none of the kids were coming to my house until the Saturday after Thanksgiving.  By then they would have had turkey for lunch and dinner Thursday and Friday so I didn't think they would care to have it on Saturday as well.   That turkey is still in my freezer so I am going to thaw it out and cook on Christmas day.  I have invited my 3 children and their families that live here in Amarillo but they also have a dad & stepmom, and in-laws, and want to have Christmas at their own homes, so I am not sure who will be here at a meal time.   Good thing this challenge made me think of it, I guess I need to put that turkey in the fridge to thaw.  :)
Anyway, here is my fridge...

       I am constantly taking photos and carry my camera in my purse all the time but even this was strange for me ... my daughter asked me why on earth I was taking a picture of the inside of the fridge!!!

  1. Aunt Betsy, you are THE BEST. Maybe you did amend the challenge but you got right in there and I am so excited. I did post your link this morning. Plus I mentioned that you added a bonus with that photo of that precious grandson! Brave you are to post the inside of your fridge as well. I did not know people actually used Miracle Whip. You and I do have the same orange juice. And I must brag that my eggs come straight from the chicken pen and not from the grocery store:) Thanks you for playing along. You are a trooper.

    1. I love that orange juice as well as their other juices. I get excited when Walgreens or the grocery store has it on sale. Miracle Whip? LOL! I didn't know people don't use Miracle Whip! I put it on sandwiches & hamburgers mostly but also in pasta salad.

  3. Love how comfortable your fur babies look. A great way to spend a winter day.
    Hope that cutie grandson makes the trip.

  4. Loved your photos. Furry friends and grandson are gorgeous and your fridge looks sooo much more organized than mine. :)

    1. LOL! Not organized at all! I was wishing the other day it looked like one I saw on Pinterest where you pulled out a basket that held all the sandwich items, or jellies or whatever. Thanks a million for stopping by. Merry Christmas!

  5. Came here via Granny Annie's site...

    If I were to take a selfie with my pets, I would end up being the only one in the picture because my cats and dogs are allergic to photos and they run away. I love your pets, especially the black blob :-)

    My fridge is so stuffed with food right now that I would be ashamed to take a photo of it and have it immortalized on the internet forever. Maybe after the holidays...

    As far as the baby, what a precious little boy. I had two girls, but if I'd had a boy, he'd be wearing those cute little camo pants.

    1. What a nice surprise to hear from you! Thank you for coming by. The "black blob" is Gracie. :) We rescued her from the pound in 2009. She was the skinniest, most starved little schnauzer I ever saw. She is now well fed and spoiled rotten! LOL! My grandson's room is camo, his blankets are camo, his diaper bag.
