Elfrida Phipps, once of London's stage, moved to the English village of Dibton in hopes of making a new life for herself. Gradually she settled into the comfortable familiarity of village life -- shopkeepers knowing her tastes, neighbors calling her by name -- still she finds herself lonely. Oscar Blundell gave up his life as a musician in order to marry Gloria. They have a beautiful daughter, Francesca, and it is only because of their little girl that Oscar views his sacrificed career as worthwhile. Carrie returns from Australia at the end of an ill-fated affair with a married man to find her mother and aunt sharing a home and squabbling endlessly. With Christmas approaching, Carrie agrees to look after her aunt's awkward and quiet teenage daughter, Lucy, so that her mother might enjoy a romantic fling in America. Sam Howard is trying to pull his life back together after his wife has left him for another. He is without home and without roots, all he has is his job. Business takes him to northern Scotland, where he falls in love with the lush, craggy landscape and set his sights on a house. It is the strange rippling effects of a tragedy that will bring these five characters together in a large, neglected estate house near the Scottish fishing town of Creagan. It is in this house, on the shortest day of the year, that the lives of five people will come together and be forever changed. Rosamunde Pilcher's long-awaited return to the page will warm the hearts of readers both old and new. Winter Solstice is a novel of love, loyalty and rebirth.Binding Type: Paperback

An Ice Cream Cone for Dogs Who Have Never Paid Taxes
Style: Frosty Cone, Size: Small (Pack of 1)
Bought this for my dog thinking it would provide “a few minutes of enrichment.” It became an event.
The second I pulled this thing out of the freezer, my dog reacted like I had personally returned from a heroic quest carrying the sacred treasure of his ancestors. Absolute full-body joy. Olympic-level tail wagging.
The rubber feels sturdy, the opening is easy to fill, and freezing treats inside keeps him occupied long enough for me to answer emails, drink coffee, and briefly remember who I was before becoming a full-time employee of a small furry creature.
I’ve filled it with peanut butter, yogurt, treats, and one regrettable attempt involving pumpkin puree that turned my kitchen into a seasonal crime scene.
Best part: it’s durable enough to survive enthusiastic chewing without immediately looking like it lost a fight with a lawn mower.
Five stars. My dog now stares at the freezer with religious devotion.

Great treat toy especially for frozen treats
Style: Chilly Penguin, Size: Medium/Large (Pack of 1)
This is cute! Very solid and chewable. To ensure a longer play time it does great for popping in the freezer after filling with peanut butter, yogurt, pumpkin, applesauce, broth, dog ice cream etc ...
It's been so much cleaner and easier than putting it in a dish; the treat lasts longer and the dog is entertained longer.
Whether frozen or not, this toy is very easy for my dog to get everything / lick clean. It's very easy to clean either putting in the top shelf of dishwasher or hand washing with a bottle brush.
Treat of no treat, this is entertaining for my dog. He likes to simply run around with it in his mouth or randomly chew on it. This is different from his balls or bones because it's kind of flat and thin.
Good buy and great to help cool him off from the warm weather.

Dogs love the treats hidden within
Style: Chilly Penguin, Size: Small (Pack of 1)
The treat holding penguin is ideal for feeding treats, frozen and otherwise, to your loving pets. I have put yogurt, applesauce, mashed bananas, and other treats inside the penguin. The puppies love licking the yummy treats out of the penguin. It occupies them for quite a while. The only thing is that they are not very easy to clean. I use a small soft brush after soaking them in hot water.

wonderful - best dog toy on the market!!
Style: Chilly Penguin, Size: Small (Pack of 1), Style: Chilly Penguin, Size: Small (Pack of 1)
my 10.6 lb shih tzu mix loves these. yes, they are durable. this is the third dog on some of them. i fill with diluted baby food mixed with 3 drops honey, carrots in todays, or peanut butter and a tad of jelly mixed with water, or water with unsalted cooked veggies like broccoli or cauliflower stems and carrot bits, or baked and mixed with water sweet potato. she eats just anout any vegetable. the water is to reduce calories as i had to take 3 lbs off her when i got her. and yes, they stack nicely.
when i let her out of her crate, she looks and grabs it and puts it on the kitchen floor for a refill. her idea, not my training but i like it.
this is an addition to my previous review. as far as i'm concerned, this is the best toy on the market for very small dogs. my dog has been at target weight for 2 years now and i restrict her treat calories to a strict 21 kcals daily. she is also now a working dog. i have now done frozen greek yogurt with apples and blueberry baby food diluted, kibble mixed in water. wet dog food diluted with water etc. i leave her in her crate with one and two cameras on her, one two way audio and she has stopped all barking and dutifully brings the toy and actually deposits it in my hand when i let her out of the crate. every 2-3 days it's like a new toy flavor and no toys have and tooth marks or anything on them. they're used daily.
understand this lil 10.6 lb dog goes thru nylon power chews regularly so she's super capable of destroying toys but i think the little bit of food satisfies her with the penguin and 2 1/2 years in, she has no desire to destroy them. i now own 8 of these as 2 stay in her travel bag.
we would be heartbroken if the company quit making these penguins. fantastic product. the small would even have worked for my 5 lb papillons had they made them then.
