dogs and veggies

We have 2 doggies,neither one weighs more than 2lbs, a little poodle, and a smaller rat terrier who thinks  he is a pit -bull........... they use to be a band of brothers, but for a reason  unknown for us some jealiousy kicked in ad they begain to fight, do we had to seperate them! 1 outside 1 inside, sometimes i switch em, make em take turnes!....they have developed seperat personalties..... I grilled some asparagus today.. I dropped 1..,. indoor doggie jumped all over it and ate it like he would a hot dog!,.....well as a test i handed him an other one  and he scarfed it down!.... I never knew a dog that would eat green veggies!....I told Anita that was a sign that i was a good cook when the dog craved my veggies!...... So as a test i took 1 of my grilled asparagus out to the 1lb thinks he is a pit bull doggie to see how he liked it.... now im not sure, i know he has 4 paws,  he sniffed it and i think he gave me the middle paw,...yea I got flipped off by a dog that said show me the beef!!!! your #1.. you eat it! Pets, ya gotta love em! their pretty smart!

the 4th of july

Does anyone anticipate the 4th of july more than me? I dought it!my fav holiday of the year! Why is it a mans,or at least this mans favorite day of the year? we start the night before prepareing, marinaet  the red meat,then on the 4th the work begins. Get the grill ready, proper temps, apron on, then family and friends start to arive, we (I) start cooking in 100  degree weather trying to prepare the perfect summer cookout,burgers,dogs,brats, and we each have our own special recipe, cook all that up, bust out the potato salad and the macaroni salad with some grilled corn on the cob. let everyone eat their fill, wait to hear their approval of how good  it was, everyone leaves late in the afternoon and we shed the apron and eat whats leftover in pride of what we have done! and then fortunatly in my case we watch fireworks on the front lawn! I can see em from here! and when the grand finally is over,I relize its done,over with, Iv worked for this, planned for this, and after 1 big starburst explosion in the sky, ITS OVER!  oh well iv  done it in yrs past and God willing I will do it in yrs future! I love the 4th of july!!!
