So here is how it works.
Every afternoon, about 3:30, I look at the mutts and they look at me and we all know it is getting to be time to get their dinner ready.
What they don't know is that it is also the time I get the carton of Cheap Red Wine out of the cupboard and ready for use.
So as I fix the color coordinated bowls with food for the mutts, I also fix the first glass of wine for self.
And as the mutts clean their bowls, I finish the first of the glasses of Cheap red Wine.
After that I just continue.
That is how it works.
