Julie and Julia Inspired

I went and saw the movie "Julia and Julie" or "Julie and Julia" whichever it is! I highly recommend it. It inspired me to blog more and to cook. Something tells me I will blog more and I will cook! Two days in a row worth of blogging ... Wow! It is possible! Although, how do you get into what to say! Today was uneventful, pet sitting wise. However, I must smell good because every single dog today has their nose stuck to me, smelling my legs and my shoes. I always wonder what's going through their heads and if I should introduce them to each other as their smelling each other and if they met each other in person, would they know the other dog from smelling it on me??? Ponderables!

Little Girls In Big Boxes

The funniest thing happened while I was checking in on a friends dog the other day. I hear a knock at the door so I go to the front door and through the side window I see a box with what looks like a black wig in the box. My friends daughters are always playing dress up so I figured that a neighborhood kid must have borrowed the supplies. Well, when I opened the door I realized that there was a real live little girl stuffed in the box. You can't imagine what went through my mind. I said to the box...."Hello???..." The girl does not move a muscle. I actually tapped the side of the box with my foot, why???? Who knows! I needed the little girl to move. I actually was starting to think that someone stuffed a little girl in a box, who might be dead, and dropped her off! Right when I was ready to go into rescue mode the little girls pops up and says....To be truthful, I don't remember what she said. She scared the devil out of me! To which this little 6 year old (?) started jabbering away. She wanted to know if I knew her other neighbor because she almost gave her a heart attack. She just talked and talked not even noticing, I don't think, that I wasn't who lives in this house. Then all of a sudden she picks up her box and says she's off to the next house! Is that not hilarious! She never stopped talking! I wanted to ask her if she thought of her little trick all on her own. Pretty inventive. Maybe she watched "Punk'd". I had to write about this! Too funny, too cute, but one I hope her parents keep an eye on!
