After time for rest and recovery from the family party, I am still processing extra food. Things are going into the freezer parceled in a way that will contribute to meals for weeks to come. MOM has been offering tidbits to the dogs, who love to lick bowls and pick up bits dropped on the kitchen floor. Alas, she slipped on a piece of chicken and toppled backwards over Zeke who was lurking nearby. Before she could get up all three dogs were in her face giving her kisses and nudges. Around here, if you're at their level, you get kissed. That's just all there is to it.
