A Basset Hound, CorningWare, and the Ceramic Tile Floor
It’s a volatile combination really. Take one Corning Ware bowl. Add one helping of any food item with a smell. Place on table, leave the house (with the ceramic tile floors). Now toss a basset hound named Duchess in the equation and you’ve got trouble for sure. That nose will get her in a mess every single time. Today’s food was Pancho’s Revenge, the spicy dip that Johnnie makes. I am sure the Basset sniffed the meat cooking before it even hit the pan. And then once it was done, the hound in her just knew she had to have some. We took a quick trip out of the house and her window of opportunity opened up. She seized the chance and tried to get the bowl from the kitchen table. Needless to say the basset hound, the corning ware, and the ceramic tile floor battled….and the FLOOR WON of course! One basset hound, coming to the door to apologize as soon as we walked in, one huge mess in the kitchen floor with glass everywhere….but not a single drop of food left on that glass! Maybe the floor didn’t win after all.
That was hilarious.
