Case of the Missing Ritz Chips...


So I went to the store to purchase those heavenly heat wraps for pulled back muscles and I saw that they had those Ritz Toasted Chips and Wheat Thin Toasted Chips on sale. So I came home with a treat. I ate a few for supper and then carefully sealed them back up and put them on the table and went to my evening meeting (where I heard a really fascinating presentation on Israel, Syria and Jordan but that is another post). I came home and all was well. I fed the corgis and was preparing to go to bed when I noticed a bright red bag protruding from behind a book case....

My new Ritz Toasted Chips. Or at least the bag, because there were no chips to be had. The corgis would not meet my eyes either...

The amazing thing is that this was no typical canine theft. They had carefully and methodically shimmied up the table (I wonder if one stood on the others back cause I still cannot figure out how they reached the bag up there on their stubby legs), carefully unsealed the bag making no tears, consumed every last crumb, and then HID the evidence (this is where they failed obviously...their noses could not shove the bag far enough behind the book case).

This morning they just looked at me as if to say, "Hey you, bring home Wheat Thins tonight..."
