A rainy day calls for a cozy tour of Roald Dahl’s writing hut! 📝In order to concentrate, he needed a space outside of the house full of 5 kids and was inspired by poet Dylan Thomas’ small garage workspace. Roald had his built to the same dimensions (6ft x 7ft) and decor, erected by his friend Wally Saunders, the inspiration for the BFG 😊 He started each day at 9:30 sharpening 6 pencils and writing only on yellow legal pads imported from America. He would work until 4pm and return back to dad-mode. Among the collections in his hut is a ball of chocolate foil wrappers from his childhood. 🍫 Dahl’s shed was preserved in tact after his death, down to the cigarette butts in the ashtray and crumpled papers in the trash can. It has now been moved and reassembled in the Roald Dahl Museum. Roald is pictured with his dogs Cookie and Amber. 🐶.
⚡️DOG-TIME⚡️EXCELLENT! Here we go! 1: Oh hey, is there a fun-loving, fluffy guy who would look great driving a little ☁️ around town? Yeah, that would be EINSTEIN! He is 5 yrs old (but puppy forever), weighs 19lbs and is some kind of Pom, Shiba, stuffed animal mix. He loves putt-putt ⛳️ and veggie pot pie! 2: Tell me about this house elf! Oh you must mean HANNAH! She is very a gentle lady who loves birdsongs and the breeze blowing through tree branches. She is 2.5 yrs old and weighs 41 so she is a perfect medium who loves woodland strolls, beach picnics and reading books fireside. 3: My favorite ice cream flavor is Cookies and Cream. Got a dog for that?? Yup! That’s OAKLEY! This guy is equally fun and sweet, loves playing catch 🎾, exploring and would love his own backpack for outdoor adventures! He is a cattle dog / chocolate chip mix, 3 yrs old and 39lbs. His ears get satellite radio and his nose can find a dropped pizza crust within 1/2 a mile. 4: I’m more of a creamsicle person and it’s very important my dog reflect that. Oh, okay! How about MOÑECO? He is a low rider, corgi mix with beautiful orange and cream fur! He has expressive eyes and is an all American Classic Nice Guy. He is 3 yrs old and weighs 23lb. His perfect afternoon is finishing the Sunday Times crossword or a book of Sudoku while playing Parks and Rec in the background. 5: I would like to become an amateur sleuth and really need a sidekick. Well, then you have to meet ORAN! She is smart, distinguished and has a great sniffer!! She already knows cool things like sit, down and drop and could likely learn how to dust for fingerprints. She is a a 1 yr old German Shepherd and weighs 38lbs. She loves 60s cinema and collects beach glass. 6: I tried to adopt an ET but it’s not legal in my county. Do you have any intergalactic dogs? Why yes! Meet MASON! He has traveled through three solar systems and just really loves nachos so he has decided to stay here. He is 1 yr old (in Earth time) and weighs 19lbs. He is an easy going guy, loves people, playing bocce ball and just wants to know more this weird place we call home!! 🌎
Have any sewing or upholstery projects that could use some pizzazz? I’ve started listing my remnants in my other shop (link in bio)! I have more to add - this is just the beginnnnning!! #fabrichoarder
⚡️DOG-TIME⚡️ Alright already! It’s been two days since I volunteered and nearly all these buds have already been adopted!! 🎊😭 But the cover model Osito is still looking for his forever home!! He is a 12 year old Wheaten Terrier coming in at 34lbs of fun! He loves the dog park, meeting new people and other dogs who have positive attitudes and aren’t too pushy (no MLM / pyramid schemes please!!). He loves ghost stories by the campfire, fancy displays at gelato shops, playing cards and watching old episodes of Bob Ross. Adopted cuties: Graham, Zebra Cake and Nas. Aren’t we lucky to walk these sweet guys on such a beautiful piece of property?
