Smudge is very much like his Dad......he will eat anything that will lie still for two minutes.
I don't know what he ate when he was ferreting about in the garden yesterday but it resulted in the most disgusting case of garbage guts he has ever had.
He is well fed with nice food so why on earth does he feel the need to eat rubbish?
The carpet shampooer is going to have to come out and I've a good mind to make him do it.
Had an absolutley lovely couple of hours with Ruby last night. Andy very kindly did the sausage and chips while Ruby and I watched ET-The Extra Terrestrial on dvd. Every time we watch it she likes to hear how the very first time I saw the film was at the cinema and her Daddy was in my tummy. It really makes her laugh and anything that makes that delicious giggle come out is certainly worth the retelling of stories that have been heard before.
There is a lovely piece of pork fillet in the fridge waiting to be stuffed with sage and onion stuffing and apples and wrapped in bacon. It will be roasted and served with Charlotte potatoes, roasted brussels and buttered carrots for our evening meal.
I always thought pork fillet was expensive but T***o have had some lately that are under £4 and smaller ones at £3 and under so I have been buying them for the freezer to use for stir fries, curries and pie fillings with added veg. They are just enough for three of us with no waste.
Rightio....I am off to stuff the pork and finish off the laundry before I drag the monster machine from under the stairs and tackle the carpet.
Hope you are all keeping warm and cosy today....it's freezing here.

Its cold here too and dismal, one of those days where staying in is a really good option. The pork sounds good, will it stretch to four???? LOL!
ReplyDeleteWith extra veg I am sure I could stretch the pork for you and Gerard....such a pity you live too far to make it here for tea-x-
DeleteIs Smudge part lab? I hope he isn't too poorly afterwards. It is far too cold here so hope you are staying warm! (off to check out T****o for the bargain) x
ReplyDeleteNo Lyssa he is a Patterdale crossed with a dustbin....lol. From what he bought up last night I should think there can be nothing left in his stomach. He is very sheepish today-x-
DeleteCold here too, your dinner sounds like a good, warming meal though xx
ReplyDeleteDinner was really nice and warming....especially for DD who was frozen to the bone when she came in as she works outside all day-x-
DeleteOh Smudge....why do you not have belly brakes...Heidi can't help but help herself to anything and everything either...she was poorly after a bin raid last week! But you will not learn you silly mutts. x
ReplyDeleteHe hadn't done it for a good while so I thought he'd given it up. Ha.....no such luck-x-
DeleteThis is a reason on my do not get a puppy list!
ReplyDeleteI can never understand why when our dogs aren't well they insist on not being well on the carpeted area of our house. It's pretty much open plan with carpet and wood split 50-50 but they are NEVER ill on the wood part, in fact they walk across it to specifically honk in comfort!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely memory to have when watching a film and to share it with Ruby must be extra special. xx
