I’m lying here on the couch snoozing, and suddenly my mistress nudges me and says: “Look Robyn, braces for dogs! You surely also want to have one!”

I really hope she was kidding, ’cause what I saw there in the telly looks much more nasty than X-ray! Apparently humans put small metal things on their teeth to straighten them. As if I needed something like that, hey, I don’t have awry teeth!

Next we saw artificial legs for dogs. I think that’s cool, ’cause that Husky in the TV Show was able to run and frolic again with these legs. I would be happy as well if I just would have been able to limp before, and then I would get such a new leg.

And there are also glasses for dogs! Sunglasses, which are awful important if it’s very windy and you’re driving a ragtop. Fortunately my mistress doesn’t have a ragtop, anyway maybe I would also have to wear one and look like an owl. No way!

If you want to watch the TV show as well, you can do that here!

Number two is a little Arabian foal from 2003. Isn’t it wonderful, now it’s just the Arabian mommy who’s missing for our little family.

Hooray, I got two new horseys! Number one: A Percheron stallion, year specification 2006, but is promoted as novelty 2007 in Schleich lists.

My husband just found fault that there are no fishes in my pets poll. In my opinion nobody would declare fishes as his favourite pet, which I even replied then. Whereupon he pointed out – totally right – that I bought an aquarium one month after we got to know each other, ’cause I liked his one so much.

Well, okay, fishes are beautiful… but as favourite pet? After all you can’t touch them and cuddle them and such things… but you should really be able to do so with a pet, I think. Fishes are more for watching.

What do you think? Do you like fishes?

Today a new horsey arrived by mail which I bought at Amazon, using the rest of my Wirecard coupon. The Arabian is from 2000 and now finally I have my favourite horse breed inside my showcase.

Not so long ago I announced them in a comment, and now the time has come: Today I tried out my new recipe for pizza muffins for the first time! The result was veeeery tasty and of course I don’t want to withhold the recipe from you.

Angi’s Pizza Muffins

For the dough:

• 400 grams meal type 550
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1 package dry yeast
• 250 milliliter water
• 1/2 tsp. Sugar
• 3 tbsp oil

For the sauce:

• Tomato purée
• 1 onion
• 4 tomatoes
• italian bouquet garni
• Perhaps a bit water

For the toppings:

• Fungi
• Salami
• Ham
• Sweet corn
• Grated cheese, preferable mozzarella

+ a muffin tray.

1. Put meal, salt, yeast, water, sugar and oil into a bowl and pound it soundly with a dough hook till everything’s admixed to a nice smooth dough.
2. Let the dough prove covered up inside the bowl.
3. While that, prepare the sauce: Mince tomatoes and pick the pips, mince onion and stir-fry it in a pot.
4. Add tomatoes and tomato purée to the onion, add water till consistence is as required and spice with italian herbs. If you like to do so, you can strain the whole issue.
5. Preheat the oven on 180° C.
6. Grease the moulds of the muffin tray soundly with butter, then flour it generously. The moulds have to be covered with meal all over, so that nothing glues on it. It’s not advisable to use paper moulds as the yeast dough sticks to them.
7. Form small dough balls with your hands and roll them to cowpats, about 1 cm thick, rather a bit thinner (calibre about 8-9 cm). Put the cowpats into the dimple so that bottom and edge of the dimples are covered with dough, but a cavity stays in the middle.
8. Give a teaspoon tomato sauce into the cavity.
9. Fill it with fungi, salami, ham, corn or what else you like at your pleasure. At the end strew some cheese over it.
10. Imprtant: Do not cover the dough edge, ’cause we still need it for affixing the dough covering on it. The filling shouldn’t be higher than one to one and a half cm, but even shouldn’t end up plane with the edge.
11. Again form small dough balls and rolll them, this time a bit smaller (calibre about 7 cm). Brush one side of the cowpats and the edge with water, so they get fair sticky, place them onto the filling with the sticky side down and stick the edges together. (Now you see what we need the edge for.) By dint of the water the dough sticks better together and you have a relatively high chance that nothing bursts open.
12. Brush the muffins with some tomato sauce and strew them with some cheese.
13. Put them into the oven and bake them at 180° C 15-20 minutes golden brown. Enjoy the pizza muffins hot, but pay attention with the filling!

You might already have recognized it within the last few days: A big orange button marked “BLOGine 2007″ shows off in my left sidebar since lately. More precisely, that is the BLOGine Award by bondea. In demand is Germany’s best female blogger, and the blog readers decide who is the winner. The voting starts today and ceases on May 28th 2007. Wouldn’t that be a nice present for my birthday on the next day? So if you like my blog, please vote for me here! Many thanks in advance to everybody who votes for me.

By the way, I recently had to recognise very shocked: There is no Hello Kitty community on Bumpzee!! The logical consequence: I founded one immediately. And in order that it presently becomes fairly big, please add your blogs if you write about Hello Kitty now and then (or even more often). Of course non-bloggers are also welcome, just register on Bumpzee! and be in!

Sometimes tutorial cases are really nonsensical. Not only that our pal B, citizen of Bonn, has already committed every crime you can commit as Joe Public – now he has to struggle with the municipality as well, ’cause nobody cleans up the Juridicum*. Isn’t he a really caring criminal, he’s standing up for poor helpless students! On this understanding you could almost condone all those personal injuries, assaults and homicides.

In the meantime law student J is considering whether she should sue the examination board for yet being admitted for intermediate examination. Propably she should directly have asked B, ’cause he has a buddy called Bob, and Bob would surely like to care for that… Indeed here we see that the commonly accepted opinion that law students always want to sue everybody is really true. In contrast her best girl friend K, art student, would propably just have slept with the examination board’s chairman. Then she even doesn’t have to do the exam for passing it…

Disclaimer: This Post contains a certain irony and implicates by no means that art students use to have intercourse with examination board’s chairmen.

*Juridicum: Name of the building where Bonn’s law students have to mark time

Today I went out for chinese food in Bonn with a girl friend of mine. After that we slightly walked through the city and winded up in Kaufhof (german shopping center), where I certainly had to notice the Schleich rack at first glance. And what does lil’ Angi do when she sees a Schleich rack? Right, she buys a horse! Now here is my latest acquisition, age-group 2005:
