Dear Bacon,
What? Don’t hate. You know you want a hat just like mine so you can play outside with it. Right? Signed Scooter
Dear Scooter,
Yeah, sure. I would absolutely LOVE to have a hat like yours to wear outside and make the funny thing on top go around and around Maybe if it was real windy, I could fly. I like the sound of that! So, yes two please my friend 🙂
Dear Bacon,
This is just me telling my friends on how to get more seed and nuts from the humans. Any suggestions for us? Signed Cute as Can Be
Dear Cute as Can Be,
Well you can also take tips from Journalist Rocky the Squirrel. He knocks on our back door frequently asking for a cup of nuts for him and his family. Mom even throws leftover bread out to them to help them out. You know, you do what you have to do. This economy has hit us all! Take care my friends. If you are ever near the Hotel Thompson, knock on the back door. 🙂
Dear Bacon,
I’ve read about your adventures in your magical back yard. Now this is what *I* consider a magical back yard… with drink in hand! You’re mom promised you a pool. Make her pay up pal. Signed Simple Puss
Dear Simple Puss,
I like the way you think my friend! My mommy made a lot of promises to get me outside. Although its only happened once so far, I think I need to make her pay up with one of the promises being a pool. Do you think I would be pushing it to be able to lay in a chair with a drink and food like you have?
Dear Bacon,
I love to play music. I can bang that keyboard with the best of them. This is me practicing, “Unleashed Melody”. It’s a sad and soothing song to us pooches. Have you ever heard of it? Do you play any musical instruments? Signed Wolfgang Pooch
Dear Wolfgang Pooch,
You do have some talent – way to go my talented young friend. I haven’t heard of that song yet but I will be sure to Google it on the internet and listen to it. I know it has to be amazing! As for this little piglet’s talent. Let me see…. I’m thinking…. mommy says I rip some good ones… but I don’t think she’s referring to a musical instrument for some reason 🙂
I’ll keep thinking about that answer. Take care and maybe we shall see you soon in the Hollywood lights!
Dear Bacon,
Don’t even say it. I know – I know. Yo Quiero Taco Bell. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it’s really funny. Ha Ha. My humans think it’s funny to dress me up as a taco. How would they like it if I dressed them up like a hot dog? BOL (Barking out loud)! Signed TB
Dear TB,
First off, tell me they didn’t name you Taco Bell – TB for short. Now that would be funny. Oh, I’m sorry. But look on the other hand. You are cute. AND, I bet if they took you to a Taco Bell in the drive thru, you would get free food. Free food – that’s good, isn’t it? Be proud little guy. Wear it with pride.
Friends, this is a great one today. Â I know – I know. Â I say that every week on my Travels in the South. Â But listen – every week I think there is absolutely no way that mom/dad can top the week’s prior Travels in the South. Â And every week, this little oinker is wrong. Â Right after mom’s accident (4 weeks ago today), she was feeling really icky and low. Â So dad treated her to this masterpiece. Â What is it you ask?
Daddy was speaking with the owner of a local restaurant that we go to a lot and was telling him that mom needed something to pick her up.  The manager sent over this creation on the house.  This is called Goo Goo Crunch pie.  It has layers of chocolate fudge, peanut butter mousse and a nougat cream topped with caramel, chocolate sauce, fresh whipped cream and oh yeah – chopped up Goo Goo Clusters.  Can you say insanely wicked good?! Daddy said that he could tell it was good.  Not by the smile on mom’s face.  Nope.  Daddy said he could tell by the groans coming from mom.  Oh my piggy heavens.  Watch out Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan.  Daddy said mom had you beat on this day – snorts with piggy laughter!
Over the weekend while shopping, we decided to eat Mexican for lunch. Â Now mom loves Taco Salads but she eats them weird. Â Weird how you ask? Â Let’s look at exhibit 1. Â This taco salad has the following: Â tomatoes, shredded cheese, sour cream and beef tips. Â Do you see what is missing? Â Yep, nods head. Â Lettuce. Â She does not like lettuce in her taco salads. Â I told you she’s weird. Â Yet, mom says that this was probably one of the best taco salads she has ever had. Â The beef tips were simmered in beer and simply fell apart with your fork. Â They were tender and juicy – not that I would know – hint hint mom.
So, do you like taco salads and if so what do you like in them?
For those wondering 🙂 , mom and dad did remember me Monday night when they went out to celebrate Cinco de Mayo.  They brought me back a little piggy bag.  Of course, I jumped into it like there was no tomorrow.  It kind of looked like this video that mommy took before of me eating a mexican feast.  Enjoy my friends…. I know I did – snorts.
I’ve been meaning to share this video with all of you for a while. Â A short time ago, mom introduced me to taco night. Â mmm – taco night. Â The first time I had one, I wasn’t real sure what to do with it. Â I figured it out really quick. Â The second time I had one, I was a pro at woofing that taco down – snorts.
Mind you, taco night was extremely messy and not for the weak of heart. Â Thank goodness towels can be cleaned… as well as this little piggy. Â Get your clocks ready to see how long it takes for me to snarf down one delicious taco. Â Yummy!
I share this with you now because I got another one tonight. Â Mom/dad said it was because I have been extra sweet lately. Â If that’s all it takes to get extra food, call me sugar cause I’m going to be dripping with sweetness my friends!
