tips & tricks to photograph your pets
In order to create the best portrait of your pet as possible, I need good reference photographs.

chestnut and mushroom soup
I’ve been a little lax in posting recipes on The Lisping Dog but for Christmas Eve I made this recipe from Food & Wine and I just had to share. I’m not a huge fan of chestnuts but my mom is so I found this recipe to please both of us. The chestnuts are very mild and add a sweet and earthy flavor to the mushrooms.
