Living with a beagle is … interesting! Our beagle, Jasper, has a love for breakfast time … and lunch time … and dinner time. Well any time really where there might be food being served. He lives in eternal hope that some small crumb might fall to the floor from the magic food producing table. I am not a big believer in sharing food scraps from the table but Jasper’s optimism, like his hunger, is unquenchable.

At any time someone sits at the bench to eat Jasper will magically appear and give you the Jedi stare. You can feel his mind control … “you will share your meal with me …”. And, while not pointing fingers, there are some in our household who will happily succumb to the call of the Jedi Master. 🙂
