At the end of the day, I feel like all the frittatas I have made are slightly the same, but all so different. Does that make sense? Yeah, definitely not. This one is delicious, though. And it’s super filling have the sweet potato all throughout the frittata. Ok, enough food talk. Let’s move on.
So this is going to annoy some of you people, but remember everyone has to make there own choices depending on what suits their lifestyle. Big speech for such a small topic. We decided to get a little potty pad for Jackson (my 11 week old French bulldog) to put on our deck. You see, it’s been a little hard for him in our apartment which has a pretty long hallway before you reach the door then another long hallway until you get to the outside door, then a few flights of stairs. By the time we’ve reached downstairs, Jackson’s forgot the entire reason of going down there. Yes, he goes to the bathroom, but he has forgotten all about how to signal that he has to go. He never seemed to care much for the bell. So we decided to get him a little grassy pad for outside for him to call bathroom.
Well, it worked perfectly. He went straight to it to go to the bathroom as soon as we put it down. Now he just goes right to the door whenever he needs to go outside. I can’t say it’s worked 100% of the time, but I’ll give it 80%. He has good and bad days. Yesterday was bad. But we got through it with his adorable little face. It’s so hard to get mad at him when he is the most adorable thing ever. Except for the biting thing. I’m hoping that he can have more play dates with dogs soon so he can start learning when mean vs. nice biting is like. It’s just hard because most of our friends have big dogs that think baby Jackson is annoying and pretty much ignore him. Someday he’ll have a friend for life that is his own size. Hopefully he’s a frenchie too.
Ok, here’s more pictures of him since I know you were dyyyyying for some.
I can’t believe it’s already Thursday. I’m trying to decide if I should post a cookie recipe tomorrow. OK I DECIDED. I will. I missed you guys way too much while I was in Austin, I need to give you as many recipes as possible.!
Speaking of recipes, I’ve already decided what I’m going to make for dessert on my birthday on Tuesday next week. The only thing I’m going to say is that it’s going to have chocolate in it. Among many other things, but lots of chocolate and lots of other sweet stuff. I’m going to get lots of hate for this recipes but I don’t care. It’s my birthday and I’ll stuff my face with chocolate if I want to.

I make a lot of frittatas and sometimes only vary a couple of ingredients like meat and spices but they are each unique, and so easy to make so yes I know what you mean 🙂 love that I always have leftovers for snacks too.
You are doing an amazing job with jackson! Just do what works for you! Looking forward to the bday recipe next week!
Aww, puppy love! I am adoring all of the Jackson pics.
LOL- I saw the pic and instantly thought this was a giant chocolate chip cookie recipe (bizookie) Guess I have chocolate on the mind today 🙂
JACKSON IS SO CUTE!!!!!! Thank you for the pictures! Oh, and I think the pad for your balcony sounds brilliant. He’s still a baby, so giving him baby steps makes perfect sense!
Pee Pad on your deck = GENIUS!
I had a small dog growing up. We tried to potty train her outside and it was impossible, no matter what we did! So we trained her to do all of her business on newspaper inside in a place that wasn’t visible for anyone (because you know those weird non-dog people get so offended, ugh) and she did that for all 16 years of her life!!
It was also great because if our family was running late getting home, we didn’t have to worry about her having to hold her pee/poo!!
You’re doing a great job with that adorable little guy!
I have a big&CRAZY Labradoodle now. Her teething phase was….umm…..painful! Once those baby shark teeth come out he will calm the biting down! Mine used to come after my face too!
I got a puppy from the shelter that I could not potty train at all. Someone made a comment that she did not know what it was like to go in grass she has always gone on cement. So I opened my patio door and instanly she was potty trained. I keep the slider open a bit and she comes and goes as she pleases. I keep it clean, she is happy I am happy.
Do what works for you!
I’m loving the pics of Jackson! Jackson is starting to overshadow my love for the pics of your recipes. Jackson is so cute!!
Jackson is ridiculously cute….OMG! And does anyone know where Juli’s ring in the pic with her giving Jackson kisses came from? It’s like a criss-cross thing. I saw Lauren Conrad wearing one just like it, and I love it! Anyone, Bueller?
the criss cross one is from a shop called Hem in Austin
definitely keep the frittatas coming! =)
OMG! Jackson is absolutely adorable! Love seeing pics of him
