I raised three girls, so I’m use to cooking in larger amounts. After the girls left home, I couldn’t quite figure out how to reduce my cooking to just two, so I continue to cook for five and we use the leftovers for lunches during the week.
For health reasons, I’m encouraged to eat smaller portions, about six times per day. I practice this religiously during the week, but sadly, I can’t quite master it on the weekends.
Because of the way I eat, I bring a lot of food with me when I head to work. Of late, my afternoon snack has been an apple, and a little package of mozzarella cheese. These are the cutest little things, just three in each package and I buy them in bulk at my local consumer’s shopping club.
Mondays when I’m packing for work, I add my lunch and my apple, as well as all of my hard-boiled eggs, and my cheese snacks. Apples and lunch are taken daily, but it’s just easier for me to pack my breakfast eggs and cheeses in the beginning of the week.
Last Monday, I set my back down in front of the refrigerator and started ‘loading’ it up. Delilah was standing right there watching me. I added my apple, my lunch, my bag of eggs and then I started on the cheese.
One, two, three….
I happened to catch her in the act.
Luckily for me, she was happy to exchange her prize, for one of her beloved banana chips.
But boy, did I get a laugh out of that. As did Hubby when I showed him the photo.
You make me laugh (or smile,) the sweet, funny, loving things my dogs do, that bring a smile to my face, or a laugh to my lips.
What did your pet do that made you laugh or smile this week?
I think all of us dogs love cheese. A lot of people us the mozzarella sticks for training treats. Mom tried it, but it never worked out because she ended up eating most of the cheese and there wasn’t enough for us!
Lol. Would she have unwrapped it too??
Nope. She would have swallowed it, wrapper and all. LOL
She is the naughtiest cutie in the whole wide world.
I love this picture. I also travel to work with a lot of food.
My dogs can hear a cheese wrapper three rooms away.
You have mastered the art of the thief, D. That’s why it always pays to stay close to the fridge. You just never know when Lady Luck will smile on you. (But sadly, sometimes, Lady Mama catches you in the act… Oh well…)
Love and licks,
Cupcake

{Giggle} I love that she ‘helped’ you pack your lunch. 😍
Oh my dog! We had a black lab who would do the same thing with unattended bags of potato chips. I would be sitting in the family room, and the stomach would just walk in with a bag of chips hanging from his chops. He would try to open the bag, like I would let that happen. Then he would just look up at me as if to say “But mom! I was bringing those in here FOR YOU.” He never figured out that he would have better success if he didn’t bring his snacks to wherever the humans were hanging out.
She just looks so darn cute!!! ♥
