Dinner alfresco

Www. The adventures of Gryff. You know the one thing I can say about our two legs  is that we get fed fit to bust! We get all this healthy home cooking, fresh meat and veg, and then just occaissionally we get something that the average vet would have a pink fit over. Chicken tikka masala.... Drop dead gorgeous and we love it. Last night them indoors had Indian and she who must be obeyed was so full of cold that she couldn't eat her tea. What a shame!! Anyway this afternoon a pot of rice and pasta went on with some yogurt and the remains (meaning most of) the CTMassala, together with a great big tray of small cut roast potatoes.....just enough for  seven starving dogs and one big green warty troll. Have to say we have to keep a major eye on him, he just loves our herby roasties cooked in olive oil.  Before all of you go off on one, the taties originate with a vet who is a skin specialist . He says that about 90% of itchy skins are diet related, so the best thing to do if there is a problem is to give us something like shepherds pie and stop all the dog food for four weeks and see if the scratching (or fur loss ) stops. Well that might be ok in some homes but I really don't think Ghostie our jelly gsd would appreciate us eating him! So her indoors every so often does us a tray of roasties with mince or fish as a special treat. Anyway by the time all the rice and stuff was cooked it had all gone this pinky red colour, and for some reason (probably the cream carpets) it was decided we could have our tea alfresco (that means outdoors to any of you who aren't Italian Spinones or  Greyhounds.)  Got to say bbq's and outdoor meals like picnics are the best dinners in the world, and this one was no exception.  And then she had to spoil it all by telling us what a health meal we'd just had.... Yeh like! If it was so healthy why did it taste magic? Everybody knows that stuff that's good for you tastes boring or horrible ......  All I can say guys is, we like junk food , toast, bbq's , roasties and anything pinky red, oh and tuna pasta with herbs......oh and hot dogs(don't tell Ghostie). Cool runnings Gryff
