Leftovers
Griffin is a sloppy eater. Very sloppy. Our dog loves that he is a sloppy eater because our dog’s diet consists mainly of whatever Griffin drops on the floor. This works out pretty well in that it saves Mrs. Big Daddy from washing the floor and I get to share my cholesterol medicine with our morbidly obese dog.
.
Recently, Griffin came bopping out of his room and threw a plate in the sink. That clue, and the fact that he was wearing more than half a slice on his shirt and face, led us to believe he had been snacking on some apple pie.
.
Right before his grand entrance, the rest of the family had been wondering where the dog had been for the past hour or so. Griffin’s appearance implied an answer. However, we wanted to make sure we didn’t leave him in the back yard chasing squirrels so we asked Griffin if he’d seen the little canine.
.
Griffin replied;
.
“He is in my room eating leftovers.”
.
I’m not sure I would have called food that falls on the floor “leftovers,” but we got what he meant. However, consider this post as a warning to all future house guests to be leery if Griffin offers you “leftovers” when you visit.

Thanks for the warning. I certainly would have thought he meant last night’s roast beef which I would have turned down anyway because I don’t like roast beef. But yeah, not what he meant. Yikes!
