The dog



Francene, the dog. She convulses as she sleeps. Note the big feet. If you're going to get a dog why would you get one with small feet?


The foot apologizes for the sideways angle. The foot wasn't thinking.

Tomatoes

The feet have started the tomatoes. 4 kinds of have been chosen -Celebrity Hybrid, Scotia (becasue the feet hail from Nova Scotia), Hybrid Early Cascade and Shirley. The first 3 seed packets are from Halifax Seed - we shall see if they are worthy of the foot. The latter is from Suttons Seed - the official seeds of the Queen. We assume that they should be good enough for the foot. Perhaps if they work the foot shall grant them title as official seed supplier of the foot.



















Foot Jr helped out with getting the peat pellets ready. We placed 3-4 seeds in each. Foot Jr is still young but his toe dexterity is that of an armless adult.













The seed packages said that it would take 7-14 days for germination to begin. Clearly they did not take into account the power of the foot. 4 days later and germination had begun. The seeds sensed the presence of the foot and could not help but explode from their seeds.

Yes, we know that we have been missed. And rightfully so.

The foot has been busy since it last deigned to provide an update. Sandra had no chance against the foot's fertility. Foot Jr now has a sister - Cinderella. We call her Cindy. Her foot is perfect. Even, if I dare so, more perfect than Foot Jr.

The foot is planning on expanding the garden this year. We have been growing some vegetables for the past couple of years. Right next to the septic field. Could there be any better fertilizer? The vegetables can sense that the effluent has come from the foot. Cannot nature sense perfection? The foot's waste products are greedily sucked up, and in return, nature produces sustenance for the foot.

It is a symbosis of perfection. Such a system has produced bumper crops for the past few years, so the foot shares with the less fortunate. Less fortunate in the sense that they have hideously imperfect feet. From the foot's toilet to their table.

The first chikadee of the year.

The foot has been on an extended hiatus

The foot has had other duties to attend to over the previous few months and has not had the opportunity to update the blog nearly as much as the foot wanted. Yes, the foot feels your pain.

The foot is traveling to Boston next week but hopes to post pictures of its voyage of perfection when it returns.

Foor Jr helps in the kitchen

The foot, being a natural born master chef, had been teaching Foot Jr the ins and outs of the kitchen. Today the foot taught Foot Jr all about making bread.

Here is the foot with the risen dough, before being placed in the oven.



The perfect results after being removed from the oven. You would be surprised at how difficult it is to find oven socks - you know, like oven mitts, but for the feet.



The foot and his sous-chef, Foot Jr, show the perfect loaves of bread that can be made by perfect feet.

The foot returns

After a 6 week hiatus. The foot has been very busy over the past 2 months raising and caring for Foot Jr. It's a lot of work. The foot has been continuing to document its perfect existence but hasn't had much time to spend informing its admirers. The foot hopes to update the blog with more pictures over the coming days.

Foot Jr.

Foot Jr. came into this world at 7:10 am on Saturday, Feb. 16. Leo's feet have an heir. The perfect feet genes have been passed in their entirety to Foot Jr. The perfection that is Leo's foot shall live on in another generation of humanity.








The footwear below was supposed to be used to transport the perfect feet home from the hospital. But the feet could not be confined by such manmade trinkets. When Sandra and Leo's feet attempted to place the baby shoes on Foot Jr, we realized that Foot Jr's feet were far too big. The perfect feet could not be confined to the smallness of normal baby shoes. Perfection must be accompanied by grandeur.

Foot Jr came home without any shoes. Perfection needs no adornment.
