This is Donkey Hoti, Roscoe's current longtime companion.

Donkey Hoti is not just another well-loved, matted soul in a long line of Roscoe's sad babies loves. He looooves her. He's always been somewhat of a serial monogamist.

First there was Polly Polka Pants. His first love.

She turned her back on him.

He soon hopped into a whirlwind romance with this little bunny.
For the record…I am not claiming to know the sexual preference of my dog, or the stuffies… it's just a story.

She knew she was just a rebound romance, but just couldn't walk away.

This next gal was just plain mean.

Apparently Roscoe, once he met this little chicken.

I am testing biscuit recipes for work… and I have been schooled in biscuit making. Yesterdays sad biscuits pale in comparison to todays much taller and flakier results. The difference, in my humble opinion, was the lard. Sugar too.

Oregon Grape Mahonia aquifolium
There is no good reason why this plant is loving life in my Central Texas courtyard, being that it is the state flower of freaking Oregon, but it is.
