Left Overs Please

Oh the fragrance...coffee.  There is nothing more inviting to a growling stomach than the aroma of fresh coffee brewing.  Add to this, the combination of turkey roasting in the oven, fresh rolls baking, garlic, onions, and many herbs combined.  Yum!
 
I've had people comment about my discernible sense of smell.  I can find things based on my nose and my best friend will sometimes challenge me with this...by hiding things.  As long as the item is within reach, I'll nail it too!  I'm proud of this strength.  Bing, bang, boom...there it is.  I collect the aromas and I'm rewarded handsomely.
 
I just wish those around me were a bit more generous at times.  To be near so much food and not invited to the main table is a bit annoying.  I tend to hang out at the kiddie table.  Those littles are a bit kinder with the crumbs and tend to slide things to me when no one else is looking.  Mom and dad overfill their plates which is all good for me! 
 
The turkey is the best, the darker meat...tender and juicy.  I'll curl up near their feet on the floor, watching and waiting.  Soon it'll be raining, raining crumbs...gorgeous, wonderful crumbs.  It's Thanksgiving and I'm thankful, thankful to be a dog in a rather large house full of guests.  
 
Oh the chatter, the laughter, the silverware clanking, and the morsels of food, I live for the morsels.  I'm so Thankful too...what a holiday!
 
It's the dogs life for me, my life...sniff, sniff....
 
By the way, Trixie Archer was busy making pumpkin pies this week so I volunteered to write her blog.  She of course had to interpret because not too many people understand the tail wagging, dog drooling, sign language of the canine persuasion, but she does. 
 
Happy Thanksgiving!  Wuf, wuf...no bones, just meat...now hand it over!
