Mama's Little Helper

As I was fixing a salad for lunch, Adelle took all of my vegetable scraps to the trash and tossed them in. The only bad part was that once I had sliced the lettuce and green peppers, all I had left was cherry tomatoes. No more trash. Adelle would have none of that. She stood at the counter with arm extended upwards going, "Uh, uh!" So I gave her a good piece of green pepper to eat and told her it was good and she should eat it. We all know where it ended up - the trash. Then, I gave her a couple pieces of lettuce to toss in, even though they were fine, too, and we enjoyed the fruit and vegetables of our labor.

After lunch, she slipped and hit her forehead on the dining room table. Her head actually dented in as it was hit on the corner. She's fine now, just a little red mark left. There's never a dull moment.
