This is me, eating cake on the steps of my grandma’s Tennessee home. Many, many, many years later I still love cake. (Also Poodles, Whisky, Books, etc.) 📍Original Vancouver. I’m IrishLegs everywhere.

I got multiple good poses from Buttercup today. Something about this green chair, she usually cooperates and will stay still long enough for me to snap her pic. Here’s two of them.

I learned to do a French Knot! I’ve always been intimated by more complex embroidery stitches, I’m on a mission to change that.

A close-up of many failed French Knots and then three successful French Knots on a linen cloth in red thread. Above is a border comprised of satin stitches in red, yellow, and blue. #Embroidery

Buttercup is ready to play!

A brown and white parti standard poodle with a short ear cut (due to matting), is standing in a doorway. A teddy bear squeaky toy is in her mouth. She’s ready for me to be done with work and so am I.

I’m embarrassed. OK, I’ll share my new haircut. They had to shave my ears, they got matted from being in a cone and so long. It’ll grow back.

One year ago this sweet girl came into my life. Can you believe no one wanted her until I came along. My precious rescue girl. #DogsOfBluesky #poodle #anniversary

A brown and white parti standard poodle, looks wearingly at the camera. She’s still new to this home and leaning her way around. Within less than a year she will become the worst pup to try to take a picture of, but here she didn’t know better and cooperated.

Well she got a bath after Tahoe left today. There’s a reason I generally prefer the professionals to handle her grooming.

A brown and white parti standard poodle, sits on a bed, she’s wearing an aqua blue shark towel. She’s not really as clean as one would hope post bath time. Her expression is resigned. #DogsOfBlueSky

Suzanna@irishlegs· Jul 9

The smiles! They know my workday is near an end.

Tahoe, a standard white poodle, lies on the floor and smiles up at me.

Buttercup, a brown and white standard parti poodle (who really needs a bath), lies on the bed and smiles at me.

Post two weeks in a cone, delays due to holidays, this girl needs a groom stat and we still have until the 18th for her appointment. Would you believe her legs are actually mostly white fur? Time for a home bath. #DogsOfBlueSky #poodle

Would you believe her legs are actually mostly white fur? A brown and (should be) white parti standard poodle lies on a bed. Her head is up but her eyes are hidden, and her ears are ridiculously fluffy.

Tahoe is so excited that I’m done working but he won’t move so I’m trapped at my desk. #DogsOfBluesky

A standard poodle, white coat, extra large (80 lbs), looks expectantly at the camera. So excited I’m off work, but he hasn’t registered he’s blocking my way.

Dinner was served and enjoyed. Also, someone, cough Liam cough, decided he needed a bit of the cake ahead of dinner. #Cooksky #Happy4thofJuly

A dark blue fiesta ware plate on a blue and white tablecloth. The plate is filled with corn, chicken wings, coleslaw, mac & cheese, pork spare ribs, and a roll. A bottle of Black Butter Porter sits just behind the plate slightly to the left.

A hand reaches down to the snickers layered cake (two layers of chocolate cake, a homemade nougat middle, and a lightly salted caramel frosting). The angle makes the cake appear small, it is not. On top is a pile of chopped up snickers bars. Liam’s hand is plucking a few of those snicker bits, this hand looks a bit like thing, not connected to anything, just grabbing candy.

A moment of zen. Video was taken by my daughter yesterday somewhere near/in Walla Walla, WA.

Suzanna@irishlegs· Jun 27

Mom wanted to go to Wendy’s today and look what they have, adult happy meals. Had to get one.

A banana swirl frosty (it’s like banana pudding concentrate swirled with vanilla frosty) and an adult toy surprise box from the Minions themed Wendy’s happy meal sit on a car dashboard. It’s raining outside.

My toy from the mystery box. It’s a Minion dressed as Wendy! It came out of the box wrapped in Minions themed tissue paper. Just toy class all the way.

A picture of Trump’s arch for the “state fair”. It’s very silly looking. No grandeur here.

Suzanna@irishlegs· Jun 22

This is Buttercup. I changed her name from Butterfinger to Buttercup when we got her so the name change wouldn’t be to difficult an adjustment (plus i liked it). Her nickname is Butters, Butterdog, or Cup. My GenZ kids have given her all her nicknames. Butters brings special glee due to South Park.

Buttercup aka Butters, aka Butterdog, aka Cup, is a brown and white parti standard poodle, pictured here trying to avoid the camera while lying on a bed covered with a colorful quilt.

Buttercup has noticed her reflection in the TV again and is sitting on my bed and giving it low growls. She’s usually such a friendly dog. I guess there can only be one Buttercup. #DogsOfBlueSky #Poodle

A brown and white parti standard poodle sits on a bed with a, mostly tones of red, quilt. She is looking at her reflection in the TV on top of an old wood dresser. She growls, the dog on the TV does not respond, she growls some more.

Buttercup is not loving her cone, who could blame her. She loves neck scretches, and the cone interferes with that, but we’re working it out. #DogsOfBlueSky #Poodle

A brown and white parti standard poodle, her head surrounded by a cone, lying next to me, looks up pleadingly.

My poor doped out girl. She had surgery yesterday. It will be worth it though as soon we can go to the dog park, etc., with no worries. #DogsOfBlueSky #poodle

A brown and white parti standard poodle lies in her crate, there is cone around her neck/head. A caption on the photo reads “Post-op Snooze”. She is very doped out. (She was spayed.)

Post dog wash nap in a freshly made bed. Buttercup’s doggo heaven. #DogsOfBlueSky #poodle #NapTime

Buttercup, a brown and white parti standard poodle, is nestled into a pile of pillows on a freshly made bed post a bath at the dog wash.

Suzanna@irishlegs· Jun 4

Also, these dogs are filthy. No really, they’ve been digging holes and playing in the dirt all week. Which is why Callie is taking each of them to the dog wash today. 😂 #DogsOfBlueSky

Suzanna@irishlegs· Jun 4

Welp, Callie is home from her double trips. This morning was the last morning I’ll get a two doggo wake-up call for awhile. #DogsOfBlueSky #poodle #MorningWakeUp

Chowder in my bowl. The yellow chowder and blue bowl seem very French to me for some reason. #CookSky

A bowl of lovely corn chowder with bacon and white cheddar cheese sprinkled on top. It’s served in a dark blue fiesta ware bowl, hints of a blue and white table cloth in the corners.

Suzanna@irishlegs· Jun 3

It’s the hottest day of the year, what if I make corn chowder? #CookSky

A pot filled with corn chowder, Ina Garten’s recipe.

Tahoe in my messy yard. (Buttercup is at the groomers.) #DogsOfBluesky #poodle

An extra large white standard poodle stands on pavers in front of a planter box. There are a few wildflowers making an attempt to bloom.

Suzanna@irishlegs· May 29

Had to give Buttercup a bath. No way was she jumping onto my bed after rolling around in the dirt. I blame Tahoe for his encouraging this action while not doing it himself. #poodleparty 🐩

This is part of a pic of Buttercup. A brown and white parti standard poodle. It showed up when I typed poodle in the emoji search. Guess I made a sticker and didn’t know it. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Suzanna@irishlegs· May 27

Could this have been when? #DogsOfBlueSky (Our version of a UFC match, much cuter.)

Two poodles play on a bed. One is a brown and white female standard pattie, about 37 lbs. The other is an all white male standard, about 80 lbs. They are romping around.

Now how did this happen? 🧵 #DogsOfBlueSky

A close up of a rumbled quilt on a bed. The quilt is made of multiple colorful squares with abstract floral-ish motifs sewn together. A closeup shows two of the squares have rips in them, fluffy white batting is peaking through.

Buttercup sends her regards.

Buttercup the other day trying to nestle onto my work chair. I should have been petting her you see. (Brown and white parti standard poodle)

Suzanna@irishlegs· May 6

I just received an order last week. Love my little desk adornments.

Close up of cute, little, colorful creatures sitting under a computer monitor. There is a dragon, an egg full of chickens, and a shimmering turtle.

Suzanna@irishlegs· May 1

Took Buttercup through the carwash with me. I’m not so sure she enjoyed it. She seemed very suspicious of the whole process. #DogsOfBlueSky #Poodle

Suzanna@irishlegs· Apr 28

Buttercup was honing her hunting skills yesterday She knew there were crumbs underneath that chair, she patiently waited to strike and then dove under in attack. #DogsOfBlueSky #poodle
