I was home all alone tonight, cooking for one can be a challenge but oh my did I come up with something good!
Exhausted after a long day at work and tired from the night before I surely didn't want to spend a lot of time cooking. I will blame my lack of motivation to spend hours in the kitchen on my dog Tucker. Tucker, my 6 year old lab, has suddenly developed a great fear of wind...Yes, you heard me right, wind...
It all started one night when we had a storm here in Minneapolis. The wind was howling outside. Living in a cute little brownstone that was built in the early 1900 means that we don't have the best windows. Our front windows are french doors, which I love as they add an element of old world charm to our place, but this particular night they created havoc! As Tuck and I sat in the living room, listening to the rain fall and enjoying the peace and quiet- the wind suddenly came up- it blew so hard that the doors suddenly opened.
Tucker,who was curled up next to me in a deep doggie sleep, went running across the room, tail between legs, hair standing up on his back, looking over his shoulder like the ghost from hell just came through the window. He proceeded to head right for the front door, taking both front paws and scratching wildly like he was saying "get me the hell out of here- NOW"
Needless to say, he has now developed a fear of- wind!
Well , last night it was windy again, so Tucker paced about all night- sure that the door was going to fly open again and that ghost was going to come in again...So- I am exhausted, he kept me up til 2:30 am...time to keep it simple but delicious!
