Persia nearly got beaned in the head by a frozen chuck roast last night. I
went to the grocery store and bought wayyy too much stuff. My freezer
overfloweth. I was getting some ice and the freezer showered contents onto
the floor. Ooops!

Good thing Persia is fast. Getting hit in the head by frozen meat probably
wouldn't be a good thing.

If that had happened at Hopitus Habitat...Moosker would have quickly
shoved
the meat packet beneath or beside fridge, where later out of hoomins
view, the
Half-Blind Porker, Rowdous, would have successfully tore into the
wrapping,
revealing the juicy, raw treat for all to enjoy. As previously posted
long ago,
R. once dragged my Thanksgivng 25# turkey UP and OUT of a stainless
sink (deep one) and down onto floor, where the group happily gnawed
off
an entire wing before their hoomin emerged from bed at 6am to roast it
and
discovered the carnage. But Persia is a lady...


Persia is a lady who has been on a strict diet for a very long time. I
wouldn't trust her with a roast or a turkey for two seconds.

Good thing she's a lot shorter than a Great Dane. A friend has a silly
harlequin Dane who is always getting brained with the freezer door, because
she always crowds her mommy when she is looking in the freezer.

But, but but....

I didn't think Harlequin Dane's had brains!

morning.)

How is Persia doing with her weight program, Jill? What is the game plan
with your mum? Please keep us informed and congrats to you, Persia, and
Peaches for getting back together.

Oh, Domino is pretty much like that-- every morning she's out the door, and
she's like "Outside! Just where I left it!" She's a sweet thing, though.

You're not going to believe this....long ago, just out of school, I was
roommate
to a teacher in her late 20's and her enormous Weimeraner, Hunter. I
always
said his name shoulda been "Hunger" as he was always stealing any loose
food (he would eat about anything, just like a goat!) One day I went
off to work
after spending hours making a pineapple pie (lattice-top, lotsa work
for a newbie
baker, LOL) which knowing Hunter, I carefully placed way back atop the
large
fridge - at least 6' high. When I came home, roommate informed me he
had
somehow got ahold of it and consumed it all....not enough left for her
to even
tell what it had been, LOL. Shortly thereafter, we parted ways. I did
not have
cats at that time living there.


Now that's funny - not for you as a newbie baker, but funny story!
Don't you wish you would have had a video camera set up to find out how
he managed to get to the pie? Did he climb onto the counter, maybe?
Because I don't care how big a dog is, he can't reach the top of the
fridge without help of some sort. A cat on the other hand...... :~)

For my sister's fourth birthday, my mother baked a two-layer gingerbread
cake. She left the two layers cooling on a rack on the countertop,
planning to frost the cake the next morning. When we got up, we found
that the family cat had eaten about half of one of the layers. So, Mary
ended up having a rather short one-layer cake instead of a two-layer cake.

Two weeks ago I was cooking for a sick neighbor, I put chicken parts in the
slow cooker and did them overnight. When I took them out of the cooker the
next morning a breast piece and leg were missing. The top was a little off
center. Yes, I found the bones under my desk a day or so later. Methnks O
T and Willow had something to do with this, at which point in the cooking, I
have no idea.

How is Persia doing with her weight program, Jill?

She's still holding steady at 15 lbs. Big girl Ah but I missed her. I
really should get her some gooshy food as a treat. I don't think FF every
couple of months would hurt her.

What is the game
plan with your mum?

Mom wants me to move to SC. I knew this was coming.

I'll go back (with Persia) for a bit but no way am I moving there
permanently. I didn't like it when I lived there before (Parris Island,
1973) and I don't like it any better now. Nothing like living on an island
off the coast of SC for hot and humid. You know there's a reason why the
Marine Corps recruiting station was on an island... hard to swim with the
alligators.

LOL, but at least if they were planning on going AWOL, they'd have to
perfect their swiming or rowing skills.
