Introduction to Counter Surfing

Barcie, did you think that using “whippet” as a password would keep your laptop secure? Geez, how stupid do you think I….Never mind.

I’m determined to increase readership on this blog. A bunch of ramblings about “the book I just read” and the vacations she took is not gonna cut it.

So, let’s turn to a topic of real importance to all you canines out there:  food.  Now, we usually have to depend on the whims of our owners when it comes to getting a snack. But, with my one- track mind, my long legs and a lot of hard work, I have managed to overcome this limitation.
I call my technique “Grab Groceries and Go.”  Now, humans like to leave food in the refrigerator, a sort of large metal box with a tight fitting door. That set-up I have yet to crack. But I've had much more luck with that other location for leaving food:  the counters.

I have made quite a career out of retrieving all sorts of food items off the counter. And I have quite the delicate touch! Like the time when I moved a glass cake pan to the floor and removed the cake without breaking the pan.
Next blog:  I will spill my secrets and describe my many culinary conquests.
