Cinnamon and star anise are seasonal must-haves for many when baking. What are the spices you and your pets bake with during the holidays?

If you and your pets took a walk today—through the snow and trees—would you expect to come across a gingerbread house? What would you do if you did? It would be magical; you would feel as though you had been transported into a story. Would you walk up to the door and knock? Would you be tempted to nibble a corner of a gingerbread wall? Or would you be thinking about the story of children lost in the woods and how they stumbled across a gingerbread house?

No rain means the green grass has died and turned to brown. The swamp is less deep and is more like a river now. Watch out for those hippos playing in the mud!

Once in a blue moon, the PnF Universe expands, as new planets are created, enabling far and distant worlds to come into being. The Brown Planet presently awaiting terraforming in PnF art is one such planet! However, the only certainty in the PnF Universe is that the skies are constantly shifting and changing. Over millions of pet years, stars, planets and moons are all slowly but inexorably being drawn into stellar vortexes, black holes or wormholes, disappearing from one section of the PnF Universe and reappearing in an entirely different section. This explains the delay in terraforming the Brown Planet, as well as the passion for space travel and the vast array of intergalactic art in the PnF Gallery!

What could be better than to come inside from shoveling the path and be greeted with a warm cup of cocoa and some delicious sweets? You sure have a thoughtful sweetie!

The sweet aroma of gingerbread and cinnamon fill the air making for a warm gathering time. Put on a pot of hot spiced cider and enjoy the festive season with a friend or two.

It's time to decorate for the season! These villagers have just begun to hang the greenery to make their little street look festive. I can't wait to see when it's all finished and that first blanket of snow arrives!

'Tis the season for so many things. Warm family gatherings. Outdoor fun playing in the snow. Pets helping those less fortunate to have a happy, memorable season. And of course, to be grateful for the many little blessings we have in life, despite the difficult things we all have to endure.

In Europe, in the winter, many places are covered with snow and the sight of a robin with its bright red throat would add a welcome dash of colour and a reminder that even in winter there are creatures enjoying the season. [European robin]

At the centre of the Hanukkah festival is the nightly lighting of the Menorah. The menorah holds nine flames, one of which is the shamash, or “attendant”, which is used to kindle the other eight lights. On the first night, just one flame is lit. On the second night, an additional flame is lit. By the eighth night of Chanukah, all eight lights have been lit.

As the sun sinks slowly into the sea, nature unleashes another glorious sunset along the horizon, showing off her colour palette to all of the sea going and marine Pets in PnF Land! The brilliant sunset bathes the weathered timbers on the ancient galleon in a golden glow, and brushes the sapphire sea in strokes of turquoise wherever its dying rays touch. The little Pets stand upon the deck, wide eyed in awe, capturing the fleeting visual treasure bestowed upon PnF Land this night!

No experience in PnF Land can hold a candle to a Starry Night at Sea, upon an ancient galleon, whose timbers have been weathered and warmed by age, the relentless sun, and intensely salty seas! As the galleon gently rocks its Pet crew to sleep, the moon arises over a deserted tropical island and thousands of brilliant stars light up the sky and are reflected back by the sapphire blue waters. But, while all else is still, one Pet stands upon the deck, looking across to the island, deep in thought. Is this Pet simply marveling at the wonders of the Pet universe, or do they await a flash of light from the far side of the island, arranging a secret tryst with a mysterious castaway…?

The ancient galleon lays safely at anchor, within the sheltered lagoon at Crystal Cove, as the late afternoon electrical storm lashes the sapphire sea and turns its surface milky, with a barrage of lightning bolts and unrelenting rain. The weathered timbers of the old galleon hold fast, and tremble only ever so slightly when the storm unleashes thunderclap after thunderclap, rolling through the air, with a resounding series of booms!
