Herbs and The Watermelon Snack

Chloe and I always enjoy morning walks. The other day, we were outside admiring a neighbor's garden, which is filled with pretty flowers and herbs. Our neighbor came outside to chat with us and kindly offered some herb cuttings, which she suggested I place in water and let grow roots, so I could replant them in a pot of soil. So here they are ... no roots sprouting yet.

Later that day, I was scheduled to take my mother shopping. So before our allotted meeting time, I decided to make myself a little snack of fresh watermelon. As I was slicing the melon, a huge chunk slipped out of my hands and onto the floor. I wiped the floor and resumed preparing my snack. Then I noticed Chloe's head - her white fur had a huge pinkish-red stain. Guess that fallen piece of watermelon ricochetted off of Chloe's head before hitting the floor. A moistened wash cloth and even a little tear stain remover was used to try to rectify the situation - to no avail. So ....

Emergency bath! Since Chloe's hair is so short, she was easy to dry. And we made it in time to take my mother shopping.

oh I'm sure she would have looked adorable with a red spot on her fur!

She doesn't look too happy - did she at least get a bite of melon?

Chloe, don't you hate when food hits you on the head? That has happened to me also. Did you get to eat some? I like watermelon. I don't like the bath part of the story.

licks and sniffs, Sasha
