I found a nice recipe for 100 per cent whole-wheat bread. It was even better when I decided to substitute butter for the vegetable shortening and hard molasses for the sugar.
But I hate incomplete recipes. This one lacked a reminder: "Prior to leaving the kitchen, position the cooling loaf well back on your counter, beyond paw reach of an ungrateful sneaking thieving inconsiderate greedy thoughtless furshlugginer sonuvabitch of a Labrador retriever."
She left EVIDENCE? What a dumb dog.
ReplyDelete8-> I can testify from personal experience that an Aussie Shepherd will only leave a clean[er] spot on a counter that formerly held a pot roast...
She was just showing appreciation for your cooking. Like John, I can testify to the ability of a beagle to clamber up on the table, retrieve the steak from your interrupted dinner,then proceed to happily chomp on it behind the couch containing unexpected callers. JAGSC
ReplyDeleteI really hate to call a feller down, who's blog I admire, but come on! Can't you come up with a better excuse? :D
ReplyDeleteHas all that fiber made a reappearance yet?
ReplyDeleteDammit you guys.I really wanted that bread, and I'd hoped for a little more empathy.
ReplyDeleteAs for you, Mr. JMW, it isn't the sort of thing that I really like to sniff out. But I suppose I can decline to mow Miss Libby's comfort zone and see it it sprouts hard red wheat this season.
