The Hopeless Doodle Addict Award Has Landed in New Hampshire,......

[Carol and Banjo]

......All the way from Ontario, Canada.....passed down from BruceGirl and Gavin!!!!    Banjo sensed right away that this was no ordinary package.

and lo and behold....THIS was indeed a very special package!!!  Filled with lots of wonderful goodies for Banjo and I.   Inside we found yummy homemade doggie treats & recipes  (Banjo LOVES the cookies!), some lovely Canadian souvenirs, 2 pins including a Red Maple leaf pin which I'll be putting on my leather motorcycle jacket AND a Maple Leaf Bandana for Banjo.  BruceGirl tells me this is to be worn on July 1st which is Canada Day.   I'll be sure that he's sporting it on that special day BG!   Also included was a bar of wonderfully scented soap made in BG's town, a watercolor note card, the book "Inside of a Dog"...which I can't wait to read!   And to Banjo's delight there was a squeaky ball AND.......TA DUM.....the CUTEST little lamb ever!!!!   Some on you may remember Banjo's encounter with a real live baby lamb last February when we were walking on the beach.    I have to say that he hasn't stopped playing with this little lamb since he pulled it from the box.   I've NEVER seen him so enamored of ANYTHING ever!   Here is Banjo in his new bandana with the new "Love of His Life" Lammi and the the prestigious Hopeless Doodle Trophy which he duly Kissed.

He did leave Lammi for just a while to admire the cool squeaky ball....

II've had some addictions over my life time....coffee, cigarettes (ugh!!! many years ago),  chocolate, sun worshiping ('til I saw the recent pic of the 62 yr old truck driver!!!) and  probably a few others I don't even remember  (I was a child of the 60's!) but never have I been SO addicted to anything the way I'm addicted to Doodles AND Doodle Kisses!    Over the past two years I've gotten to know so many wonderful, funny, thoughtful, caring, kind members here on DK.   The day isn't complete if I haven't had a chance to stop in and see what's new with our human and doodle friends.    Many thanks to each of you for making me llaugh (not a day goes by!), teaching me how to be a better "Doodle Mom",  letting me know it really is ok to be a crazy, totally in love with my dog Doodle lady and for sharing all that you do!     I wish everyone could know the joy we've known with our Doodles.

Thank you BruceGirl!!!!       Stay tuned to find out who the next Hopeless Doodle Addict is!!!!

Congratulations Carol, I have been on as long as you and I can't imagine a day without it.

Love the photos, but I always do love yours.

Congratulations! Great box of goodies too. Banjo looks so happy with his lammi and ball too. Banjo looks a bit like my Murphy when I grow out his hair. Just love the apricot coloring.
