We've seen a lot of our dog blog friends have participated, and we did too (I'm just late posting about it - wanted to wrap up the epic hike posts first)!
{Joe Stains, this burger's for you}
We'll miss you Joe!
A cheeseburger wasn't the only treat Darwin got that weekend. I wasn't sure if were going to make it to a fast food place (Jason's not big on fast food) so on Saturday Darwin got to share some of my BBQ pulled chicken sandwich! It was a beautiful sunny and warm weekend in Seattle, so we picked up some BBQ and went to the park for a picnic and a walk. I let Darwin have the top bun of my sandwich and some less barbequed pieces of chicken.

And the last treat of the weekend was Chinese Tea Eggs inspired by the one and only Honey (and Hsin-Yi). I wanted to make them as soon as I saw Honey's post, but was even more motivated after seeing the Splorin' Wolfies, Maggie and Guinness make some. So after fast food lunch on Sunday (Jason actually wanted to stop by Burger King after the dog park) and cheeseburgers for Joe Stains, I started boiling my eggs.
After following all the steps, this is what I was left with:
And Darwin got to try one out.

(I don't know why but all my eggs ended up with one flat side, maybe I cracked the shells before they were boiled enough?)
Darwin (and I) loved them. I was worried at first that the tea would make them sweet, but the soy sauce made them perfectly salty.
Joe Stains we'll miss your humor and big personality, but will always think of you when we eat cheeseburgers!
Your Chinese Tea Eggs look yummy and I was going to try these last week when I looked at
ReplyDeleteSplorin' Wolfies site. I'll do it this week!
Cheers,
Jo, with Stella nodding her head!

Darwin is living the food dream! What a great way to remember Joe Stains.
ReplyDeleteDarwin, I know, it's been a while..... We all lost a great friend in Joe Stains, but true to his personality, he still found joy for us even in his absence. I couldn't eat the cheeseburger due to my special diet, but STINKY did!!!
ReplyDeleteI've been reading your blog and caught up on your delicious birthday dinner(s), celebrations and your playtime with your brothers and sisters (that was a lot of Great Danes!!). And you know what, you have filled out lots girlie, like a mature Dane now and not a gangly puppy!
Love nibbles,
Miss Sunshade

ReplyDeleteEggs and cheese burgers! You lucky girl Darwin - we had half of a bacon and egg McMuffin each once! :)
ReplyDeleteLicks and lots of slobber,

Thanks so much for the kind comments earlier this week. We really appreciate our blogging friends.
ReplyDeleteWe miss Joe Stains too, but our hu-dad still will not let us have hamburgers.
Hi Darwin,
ReplyDeleteI really like your pretty pink collar. We share some of the same likes - burgers, eggs, hiking. The waterfall sure is beautiful. I look forward to following your blog.

Great multi-day tribute in celebration of a much loved doggie. We may have to break down and try Honey's Chinese tea eggs after they've received the seal of approval of 2 Danes and 2 Irish Wolfhounds.

Hi Darwin, I'm sorry for the late post. I asked my dad about cheeseburgers for us and he mumbled something about it not being on my diet and stuff. But he promised to make me a raw bison burger with a little cheese on top for my dinner soon.
ReplyDeleteDAMN! Darwin is spoiled! (like mine aren't, right?)
