THIS WAS THE BEST THANKSGIVING WEEK EVER.

This was the best week ever! Mommy promised not to take any pictures of us and NO BATHS! Yippee!

Our human brother, Jason and his wife Haruka came home for Thanksgiving. We love it when they're here because they play and love on us all the time and cook!

Mommy kept her promise and just took pictures of food. Not just any old food, but beautiful and delicious food that Jason and Haruka grow on their Organic farm in N.C. Mommy cut a deal with them a long time ago. "You cook and I'll wash the dishes". It's a great arrangement cause boy, can they cook and it's all fresh off the farm.

Above is a beautiful green salad that Haruka prepared with Butter head lettuce that is so tender, it melts in your mouth! Also with Arugula, carrots, sweet red pepper, water melon relish and fresh dill. And she makes her own dressings from scratch. OMD!

This is Haruka just whipping something up! Cream Of Parsnip Soup with crab and Mushroom relish. Isn't she cute?
This wonderful and very rich soup has parsnips, potatoes, leeks, celery chicken broth, half and half, sage, cherbil and salt. The relish is made with mushrooms, crab, green onions. Haruka's presentation is always so beautiful!
Last but not least, the next morning, Jason made us all a huge crab omelet that was heaping full with Havarti cheese, avocado, green onion, sweet red and purple peppers, dill, and mushrooms! We love it when they come home! Yippee!
Tomorrow they are going home and mommy is very sad. We're giving her lots of kisses though. We hope all of you had a great Thanksgiving week also.

We told mommy that an omelet is much more photogenic then we are. She said, just wait till next week! Oh, Brother!

Luv,
Riley and Star.

THE MOMENT YOU'VE BEEN WAITING FOR...THE FINALS.

PLEASE VOTE FOR RILEY AND STAR ON "DANCING WITH THE STAR"!
Gee, this waiting is making me sooo nervous!
Hi Everyone, Regis and Kelly here. Well it's Tuesday morning in New York and RILEY AND STAR HAVE MADE THE HEADLINES AGAIN!!!
Apparently, Star is really creating a ruckus on "DANCING WITH THE STAR". Really? Yes, according to STAR MAGAZINE, Donnie says: ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!

Well Regis, did you see who was in the audience last night? No, who? MANGO THE MALTESE KIDDO, and CRYSTAL his main squeeze and his brother, CHUBS. Also, LORENZA, DORY, SASHA and MADI. AND.... SNOWY and SAVVY - RILEY and STAR'S sweeties, and hundreds of their other Doggy and Kitty blogging friends. No kidding? Yep! MANGO flew them all in on his private jet from all over the world! Wow! Now that IS big! Yes, and they were dressed to kill, weren't they?
Well it says here that Mya said: "THE ONLY DIVA AROUND HERE IS ME"!!! Oh how shallow! I'm more of a DIVA then she is! Apparently, STAR IS! Oh.
Well, I hear that Kelly O can't stop crying! Really why? Because, Carrie Ann dubbed STAR "THE QUEEN OF CUTENESS"! I don't know why people can't just get along? YES, SHAME ON THEM!!!
What did you say, Gelman? They have a new show? Really??? Yes, 'LIVE WITH RILEY AND STAR"! Why those little brats!!! How dare they? Yeah, let's grill them and have a HOT DOG stand on Broadway! Yeah, we'll show them!
It gets worse, Regis. WHAT NOW, GELMAN??? RILEY is replacing you on "WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE?" WHAT??? I'M GOING TO SMOTHER HIM WITH TOBASCO SAUCE!

Regis! Enough already! It's time for Snoop Dog- our HOLLYWOOD Corespondent to give us the poop on "DANCING WITH THE STAR". SOMEBODY GET THE POOPER-SCOOPER! Ha, ha!

Hi guys! Well, last night STAR really rocked the house with her FREE-STYLE dance.
And RILEY jumped so high, he went through the ceiling!
And Bruno said STAR had the power to be unleashed!
Then Cranky Old Len said, NO STRESS-EXPRESS BUT WHAT A MESS, YOU LEFT ON THE FLOOR! Sorry Len.
And then he said, DING DONG DOG! NOW THAT WAS A CHA, CHA!!!
Carrie Ann said, RILEY, where did those hips come from?
Just then, STAR went through the Spin Cycle!
Bruno told Riley that he was THE MASTER OF SHOW BUSINESS! That's when Donny got his feelings hurt!
Meanwhile, backstage when STAR saw all her friends in the audience, she told RILEY she was too nervous to dance! He said, just enjoy it, have fun and leave it on the dance floor! Star said, now he tells me!
IT'S HOLLYWOOD AND WELCOME TO THE FINAL SHOW OF "DANCING WITH THE STAR"! STAY TUNED TO SEE WHO WILL WIN THE MIRROR BALL TROPHY!

RILEY, I just want you to know that whatever happens tonight, this has been the best experience of my life and I owe everything to you! Can I have that in writing? I've been eying some of your toys.
NOW THE MOMENT WE HAVE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR......! IN FIRST PLACE, DONNY!....

NO, WAIT A MINUTE! FOLKS, MILLION OF CALLS ARE COMING IN FROM KITTIES AND DOGGIES FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD VOTING FOR RILEY AND STAR AND IF WE DON'T LET THEM WIN, THEIR FRIENDS WILL EAT US ALIVE! THAT'S RIGHT TOM, SO LET'S CALL IT A TIE!
Gosh RILEY, Donny is a much better dancer then me and he's old enought to be my Great, great, grandfather! I think the Trophy should go to him. Ahhh, that's sweet of you Sis.


NOT TO WORRY KIDS, OUR STAFF JUST RAN OUT TO WALDO-MART AND BOUGHT A REPLICA OF THE MIRROR BALL! SO, HERE YOU GO STAR! CONGRATULATIONS! Not so fast Buddy, I'll take the real one!
STAR, WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO SAY TO THE VIEWER'S OUT THERE? Well first I want to thank every Doggy and Kitty for all the LOVE and VOTES they sent my way. And as for Regis and Kelly, "WELL, YOU CAN JUST KISS MY....."!
Riley, what's wrong with mommy? Oh nothing, she just fell over from exhaustion!

DANCING WITH THE STAR PRESENTS DANCE CENTER.

THIS IS HOLLYWOOD AND WELCOME TO "DANCING WITH THE STAR" DANCE CENTER!

Hi Folks, I'm Kenny Maniac along with Len Goody-Two-Shoes and Jerry Rice-A-Roni.
Hey Len, who's that good looking dude?.....I sure like his hair! Yeah Kenny, it's just like yours, white! Your very observant Jerry. Oh, that's Riley and he is one fabulous Doggieographer!


So Len, who are these kids anyway? Oh they're not kids, they're dogs! Really?....I thought they were short people in dog costumes! You would, Jerry. No, they're dogs alright and brilliant dancers!

Now that takes guts! Look how low he's wearing his pants! Well, I think it's a bit ARTSY-FARTSY, myself. Fartsy?....I thought it was Kenny's cologne? Thanks Jerry!
Boy, look at the chest on her! That's enough Jerry! What's wrong with you? Can't you see, she's a Sex Goddess?
Oh, come on now, this is supposed to be a family show! It is Kenny, their whole family is out in the audience! Yeah, Scoobie Doo, Rin Tin Tin and Lassie! Somebody please gag him!
Now Kenny, watch Riley in this clip. He has enough energy to light up HOLLYWOOD! Well, I don't know about Riley, but Star can light my fire any Dog Day Night of the week! That's nice Jerry.
Man, that girl needs some fries to go with her Shake! Yeah Jerry, and she'd probably like a hamburger too! You two idiots need to grow up! Star got all tens for her Charleston and I think she's going to win this seasons competition!
Well Len, I think she looks and barks just like a seal! I think she's HOT! You two are children!
And Len, you can tell she's a real snob too! Well, I love her costumes, I think they're groovy! You would, Jerry!
Well, I don' t think they're good dancers at all Len, Riley does too many lifts! Well Kenny, when you have to go, you just have to go! Yeah guys, and I gotta go now! Take your time Jerry!
Well there she goes again, the engine's running but nobody's driving! What in the bloody world are you talking about Kenny? She's a "DIVA" on the dance floor! Yes and she's so fragile, she's like a snowflake resting on a lily. Somebody shoot him!
Now in this clip, Star looks like she's running away from a crime scene! She is Kenny, she just wee-weed on the dance floor. WHAT? Guys, don't be so hard on her! After all, accident's do happen. Jerry, are your pants wet? Oh, that's just bloody disgusting!!!
Well folks, thank you for joining us for "DANCE CENTER" and be sure to tune in next again week for "DANCING WITH THE STAR"!

I really think they're going to win this thing Kenny. Well, I don't! Yeah, well I'm voting for the underdog! That's enough Jerry!!! You guys are so cranky!

STAR REVEALS ALL IN THIS MONTH'S ISSUE OF GLAMOUR.

IN THIS MONTH'S ISSUE OF GLAMOUR MAGAZINE, STAR OF "RILEY AND STAR" REVEALS ALL! She talks openly about love, what Riley is really like, her ambitions and fashion tips.

I was lucky to catch up with Star in between her rehearsals for "DANCING WITH THE STAR".

She was waiting for me in her dressing room sitting very poised and looked ravishing just like a true HOLLYWOOD STAR in an ICE BLUE AND SILVER satin gown designed by OSKAR de la doggie. She was so beautiful, I was trembling as I ask her these following questions:
So Star, I see you have changed again? Yes, I never wear one outfit more then five minutes at a time unless of course, I get nervous and I have a little incident. Well, tell me about this dress? Oh, this is from one of my favorites! I just luv Red and Black especially with my signature pearls. It makes a statement you know? And what is that? I'm High maintenance!....... Please excuse me for a moment.
Oh my! Yes, well I need to step out for a while and it's impossible for me to go anywhere these days without doggies everywhere wanting my pawtogragh. I really don't mind except when they rip off my pearls!

So Star, tell us a little bit about you, like where are you from? Well, I am from North Texas and I am really just a little ole country girl at heart!
But when I'm out on that stage, I am a fierce competitor! I learned to be that way because of my brother, Riley. Why is that? Well, I'm little'ler then him so I always had to fight tooth and bone to get to a squeaky toy! But now I am fighting for the Crystal Ball! But that's my aggressive side. Sometimes...........................
I am very shy.
Now what are you wearing? Yes, this is my alluring look. I wear Red with Black Lace when I am trying to get a certain Maltese doggie's attention. And who may that be? SNOWY! And if that doesn't work then sometimes I get.....................................................................
A little naughty!
Are you always sweet? No, sometimes if I don't get my way, I can be a real snooty! At least that's what Riley says. That's what the "S" stands for. Oh I thought it was for STAR? Yeah, that too.

By the way, I hear you had your legs insured for one million Greenies! Wow, now that's a lot of money! Is that right? Yes, but they are the kind you eat not spend? Oh, I wasn't familiar with those? You're not a dog!

So what can you tell me about your brother, Riley? Well, a lot of people think he's a real joker but he's really very disciplined. He went to Obedience School you know? Oh really, which one? School Of Hard Barks! Under all that growling, he's really a softy and quite a performer! He says that we're gonna win the Crystal Ball and make every Doggie and Kittie in America proud!
What did you do before you went into dancing?
I was a Ballerina! YOU NINNY-NOOK! Oh, well, excuse me!
When you're not performing, what is your favorite thing to do? Well, I just like to hang out, with my hair messy, no makeup or fancy clothes and just be me!
