Spring is finally in the air, and we’re getting temperatures in the 60′s and 70′s. Which makes me complain about the heat many PNW’ers come out in the sun, talk to neighbors they haven’t seen since September’s last sunny weekend, and generally be social.
The humans are only slightly behind the birds and their migrating and nesting [insert millionth Let the Dog in! bird photo here].
You may be happy to know that spring apparently affects more than humans, birds and other creatures in the animal world. Yes, friends, inanimate objects, even kitchen appliances, pair up this time of year.
If you’re a regular reader of Let the Dog in!, you may recall this pot:
Yes, it was February that this guy was sent out on the deck, and guess what? He’s still there. Unopened. We may be breeding a new sewer-creature-horror-flick-star by this point (from the sludge that once was *gags slightly* seafood chowder, in case you’re wondering).
I’m a little embarassed for my husband that this is the case, but such is life the state of our marriage cleanliness habits.
But, wait! It’s spring and look who has a friend!
Don’t they make a cute couple?
I’m not even sure what’s inside his little silver friend. She showed up while I was out. But at least she has a locking top, you know, in case when the contents ferment in the heat.
The hubs Someone is going to need a haz-mat suit to deal with our little love birds when the love fest is over.
Stay tuned. And happy spring to all!!

It’s official. You’re brain is water-logged from all this Seattle weather. Woman, do you know how much that Dutch oven costs???!
Hundred of dollars. If you don’t get it off the deck this instant, young lady, i am coming over to rescue it.
Heh!
My husband would have a fit. My MIL gave us ours and he babies the blasted pot which I might add is better than abusing it.
For shame…
Oh, Scout, but aren’t you glad to know that it is so durable and can live outside for MONTHS?! I bet those French put their pots outside sometimes. You know they have those tiny fridges…. I’m more scared of the contents of the pot as the days get hotter and hotter and hotter…..ewwwwwww.
Rough crowd!
I was just saying yesterday that I should clean out those perfectly weatherproof pots and bring them back inside…
I can’t believe you just left a pot of food outside. I don’t envy whoever has to empty it.
uh-oh, busted….. *bats eyelashes* hi hubs!!
