Ruby Tuesday’s Attention to Kitchen Detail

Shocking - Last week I was accused of being a predator in the kitchen.

Sheesh, kid, no telling where that reputation came from.

Totally undeserved.

**************

In one of our comments yesterday,  Mogley G. Retriever asked about some of the best sources of news on the Iditarod.  Here are a couple to get you started:

The official website – http://www.iditarod.com/

The current standings – http://www.iditarod.com/race/race/currentstandings.html – This can take a little while to get used to reading.

The Alaska Daily News is a great source for stories on the race – http://www.adn.com/

The North Wapiti Blog is updated regularly and gives you a great view into our favorite team – http://www.northwapiti.blogspot.com/

Mike Criss has some excellent photography on his blog that I highly recommend – http://www.akphotograph.com/Alaska%20Blog/

Hope that helps!

    That is such an unfair reputation. Martha tends to get labelled with that but she is only wanting to lend a paw!

    They just don’t understand that you are there for them…should they spill or drop something you are there to clean it up so they don’t have to. You are only trying to make them have to do less work (hehe).

    There is my bee-woo-tiful Ruby, my kindred spirit, my soulmate.

    My mom used to live in Alaska. She didn’t really follow the Iditarod but the Yukon Quest was huge (she lived in Fairbanks).

    You look like a helper, not a predator. I can’t believe anyone would dare call you that!

    How would you like it if some buddy gave you a bad name just because you like to walk around different parts of your OWN HOME, and check things out. I say, go wherever your nose takes you, Ruby!

    Kisses,

    Ah, that last picture, it’s the famous “sneak up behind your human with pleading eyes and wait until you think you see something drop!” Nope, not a predator, not in the least. Maybe a scavenger?

    Thanks for the Iditarod links – I haven’t ever really followed it, but am hearing more about it this year than ever before.

    Predator??? I saw that movie with Pops, and Ruby is NOTHING like a Predator. She’s much better looking!

    Yeah, I’m with Zackt! Us redheads ALWAYS get blamed! Well… unless you’re Ammy. She never gets blamed for anything.

    If it is on or near the floor, it’s ours. That does include the counter. Make the most of it while you can.

    Thanks for the links. WOOOOOO!

    Predator(s)? What are you talking about. I like to pay attention to kitchen detail too, but nobody calls me that. Linguini gets called a counter surfer though. Great job on looking so innocent for the photos!

    A predator? Wasn’t the predator the scary beastie in that movie? I don’t think Ruby looks like him at all.

    We can tell woo are totally innocent, Ruby. We know woo would never do whatever they said it was that you did but it wasn’t you who did it.

    Being a sous chef does not = predator. I mean come on… all good sous chefs taste the meal before it’s served and help clean up. Jeepers.
