My sister has a dog that she is just crazy about. His name is Charlie and he is a dachshund/beagle mix.

And because my sister is crazy about her dog, the month of October means Halloween costume making time for the dog. She made Charlie a little pumpkin costume as well as a Sriracha bottle costume.

While my sister was busy making her dog costumes, I passed the time by making 小黑 (the Taiwanese mountain dog, is a lady) a sad red bell pepper toy. (I was at my sister's when she was making dog costumes.)
 |
| First I cut out a shape on a newspaper and pinned it down over the cloth. After that I cut out two circular pieces. Originally this was supposed to be an apple, but I am no good at this and the end result was so lumpy.... |
 |
| I used my sister's sewing machine and sewed the two circular pieces together and then flipped the cloth pieces outside in. This was when I decided that no, this lump is not an apple. |
 |
| I gave my lump a horrified face... but I actually should have given my lump its face before sewing the two red circular lumps together. I hope you learned from my mistake. |
 |
| I added two squeakers in the lump, one in the body and then one in its hat stem |
 |

Later that night 小黑 broke her toy and I vowed to never love her ever again. I am kidding. But I was sad.
