'...lie down with the dogs...'  Most certainly not!  lol  Yes, please don't go there?  Actually, if people had the time, making their own pet food would be great for the animals.  Poor hubby!  lol  --Joy!Mary

LOL I have this story about the guy that was left alone when his wife went away on holiday. She came back and said,

"Darlin', whatever did you eat, I forgot to get you groceries before I left on holidays."

"No problem, I found all them cans of dog food in the cupboard, I ate 'em up, great stuff."

She looked at him kind of funny but then went out to keep a doctor's appointment.

She told the doc about hubby and the dog food.

"Oh that's alright, it won't hurt him" says the doc laughing.

On her next visit to the doc he asked how her hubby was doing, was he still eating the dog food he asked?

She said, "No. my hubby died."

"How very sad, I am so sorry, not because of eating the dog food though right?"

She responded,

"Well in an indirect sort of way doc. One day sitting on the couch he leaned down to lick his 'gonads' and fell off and broke his neck and died. "

Have a happy day Naut.

Good morning Offy,
well, let's see..., NO! GRRRRRRRRR! That is supposed to be a kiss for you, but it gets rather tedious if I have to start explaining to people what those red thingies are supposed to mean , and that's an angry 'smile'...

I'll be happy having my lawyer deal with any issues that come up, but he has my instruction to deal only with affected parties, in this case with Perceval! So have Perceval's lawyer get in touch, not yours!

And I have sent a letter to the Blogit boys regarding these damn emoticons, but haven't had a reply yet! I find this situation rather disturbing, indeed frustrated since I cannot indulge in my usual emoticon promiscuity!  GRRRRRRRRRRRR!

Perceval happened to walk by and look at my computer screen, and he saw the words "sheepdog stew" on your blog! - He's been hiding under my bed ever since - you'll (soon) be hearing from my attorney!And why the hell won't these damn emoticons work anymore?!

This one's from a magazine! As far as this lying with the dogs is concerned, I think it's best if we don't delve too deeply into the matter...

I have repressed my memories of baby food, so I won't know. I guess as a mom one takes the odd nibble...As far as I am concerned, later in life, though I confess to having been drunk on occasion, I have never been that drunk...

Back in 2004, I posted the recipe for homemade dogfood that the farm people of Missouri made for their farm dogs.  I don't remember exactly how it went without looking it up but it started with a huge recipe of cornbread made from all the blinky milk, the buttermilk from the home churned butter, the oldest of the chicken eggs, the bacon drippings, and any and all meat, bean and veggie leftovers from feeding the farmhands.  It smelled wonderful and the dogs adored it.

And what you're saying is, first they kidnap the little tike, and then the dog has him for dinner over a bed of unconscionable rice?

We have cats, but even Queen V jumped on this bandwagon. She found some "receipe" on a website and prepared some vile concoction made with liver. Our cats looked at her with that complete and utter disdain that only cats can muster and walked away. I tried not to laugh, but ultimately failed. She's given them the regular can and dry food since.

And todays story reminds me of
BABYFOOD. It has to be the most tasteless ,bland food Ive ever tasted,no salt,no spices,no preservatives. I watched a family friend grab the ghastly-looking babyfood Id attempted to feed my baby daughter.  He ate it with gusto then told my mother-in-law what a fantastic cook she was.  He was drunk at the time....
