The Honest Kitchen

In early March 2008, I just happened to find the following video on youtube about what's in commercial dog food ...and I was horrified. I posted a blog about it on smartgreenblog.com {my eco business} and was determined to get my dogs off this disgusting food. Please watch -even just a minute of the video below- so you can understand how disgusted I was by what I was feeding my dogs.

So after seeing this, I decided I had no other choice than to feed my dogs an all raw food diet that I prepared myself. I immediately went to amazon.com and found 3-4 dog food cookbooks and awaited their arrival. When I did get the books and flipped through them, I realized that not only did I not have extra time to prepare gourmet dinners for my dogs {I barely cook for us} but that I was going to have to do far more research in how to ensure my dogs were getting the right nutrients.

My brother {who owns and runs a dog-walking/sitting business} came over one night and I explained our situation to him and he said that many of his clients' dogs eat this awesome human-grade food that's dehydrated and you basically just need to add water and stir.

WHAT?!?!?!? THAT SOUNDS AMAZING!! I yelped. He said it's a bit expensive but it's worth it. I told him that with LeRoy's skin condition, we were spending a fortune {anyway} on what we thought was holistic dry food combined with vet approved Eukenuba {made by the grossest pet food company, Iams} skin formula {along with about $200month on vitamins and meds}.

Intrigued, I went directly to our nearest pet store {NOT PetCo - because they only sell shit} but Maxwell dog in Studio City and asked the lady there about dehydrated food. She said it's called The Honest Kitchen and it's amazing and her dogs eat it and LOVE IT. I was sold.



I picked up the chicken first to try it out and the dogs LOVED IT. So, I went online to thehonestkitchen.com and did a bit more research and found out just how awesome this food was. {and placed an order}

They use 100% organic grains, hormone/antibiotic-free meats and non-GMO produce. All ingredients are guaranteed 100% Human Food Grade. {that means, we can eat it!} All you do is add warm water {from the Brita filter}, wait a minute, stir {it looks like green or brown oatmeal} ...wait 5 more minutes/stir and serve. Sometimes I add carrots or apples or rice or meats but you don't have to, that's just extra. Also, you can see all the real food in it; bananas, chicken, apples, sesame seeds. It's really amazing AND their poop pretty much looks like the food {but nice and solid} AND it barely smells at all!!!! Organic poop! I'd say that's better for the environment too!

I wanted to wait a while to make sure I was in love with this product before blogging about it just in case I changed my mind. But I haven't and LeRoy's skin and coat look better, he barely has the farts anymore and I can rest assured that our dogs are getting the best nutrients any pet could get. {they have Prowl for kitties too} The main products we use are Force, Embark, Sparkle {herbal additive for coat} and Pecks {which the doggies die for}

major earthquake just now in LA

while the earth has stopped shaking, I have not. That 5.6 earthquake just felt huge. I'm surrounded by glass walls and a glass desk and just stood here not knowing where to hide. I'm all shook up right now. Although, this is not the first quake I've been through. We lost our house in 1994.

OMGossip girl - Summer re-runathon

click the speaker icon for audio

Is it me, or do like 9 out of 10 of the actors on gossip girl have severe lisp situations happening on, in, and around their mouths? There are so many close shots that's all I can focus on sometimes.

I'm gonna be honest, and I'm sure I'm not the first one to say this BUT, that show is HOT. h. o. t. and steamy! And every commercial break previews a trailer for next season {September 1st - I'm squealing!}. And let me tell you, it looks even HOTTER! Which any fan would know already. What season are we on? I just started watching like 3 weeks ago. But it couldn't be more than season 2 ...right?

Yes, it's ridiculously gratuitous and yes, they're supposed to be in high school but come on, we all know they're not {or, maybe they are. who cares}. This is no kid show but I sure as hell woulda wanted to watch it when I was 16. And if I wasn't aloud to, I would find a way. Especially in this day and age with all the technology at my fingertips. I was an avid 90210er {a show in which the actors WERE out of high school and some over thirty} and it didn't even come CLOSE to the sex-i-ness of gossip girl. not. even. close.

omg i love it. that's all.

Cuil ...is it?

A new search engine called Cuil (sounds like cool) was launched last night and it actually is, kind of cuil. It claims to have an index of 120 billion web pages {google doesn't disclose their info but I'm sure it's more}. Anyhoo, i like the way they lay out the search results but I'm sure it'll take awhile before they even come close to running google out of business. What do you think about cuil.com? Go do a search and check it out ...then come back and tell me what you think :)

Animal tricks

I don't know why but I really cannot get into animals doing tricks for humans. I just don't like it.

It's one thing to make your dog shake for a treat or stay while you balance something on their head {dooce} but it's another thing to cage an animal and make money off of their talents!

Monkeys in movies acting like humans? no.
The circus? no.
RODEOS? f*ck no. {hillbillies}
Sea world? no.
Even the zoo? no.

I'm not into animals being locked up and on display for human entertainment. Even as a kid I hated the zoo. I love animals. I hate the zoo.

bunnies.

I found this at dear ada, one of my new favorite blogs {as of ten minutes ago} and it spawned an insane infatuation {that I've never really had before} with bunnies. I'm now wondering if the pug and french bulldog will be able to be pals with one. hmmm.


also, insanely enough, many bunnies have an aptitude for opening envelopes. who knew?

one word. tongue.


and, are you kidding me?
