 JK> Indy is almost as tall as Toby already and I have to constantly remind
 JK> myself of that  - he's only about 4 months old :)  Granted Toby is a
 JK> small (short) lab being the runt of his litter, but it's apparent when
 JK> you look at the two of them that Indy will soon be a "big boy" and

And then you'll really have to rethink where you leave things... or get
him trained to leave things strictly alone (yeah, right.. !)  ;)

 JK> very much bigger that Toby.  He is the most affectionate dog I have
 JK> ever seen though.. he'd rather sit on your lap (if you can imagine
 JK> that, with legs all over) than anything else (g). 

Guess it would work if you were sitting on the couch...  anything else,
and you'd be in risk of the chair toppling...!  ;)

 JK> I thought about that :)  But there were no meowsers in the vaccinity
 JK> (g) ... though I can imagine it happening kind of like this: 
 JK> Cats: 'scram, here comes MOM. Let the dogs take the rap!'

Or they may just have left as soon as the bread hit the floor and the
dogs went after it...  "whoops, not such a great idea after all..."

 > Maybe you need to store it in a cold oven (or other latchable/hard-to-

 JK> Oh it is, once it's cooled off enough to slip it into the breadbox in
 JK> my small center-island (not the one that Ron built). 

Oh, I was thinking of someplace safe for it to cool... ;)  When it's
warm it exudes such tempting aromas, after all... :)

 JK> I'm not sure where I had it when you folks were here at the picnic
 JK> (it's on casters so you can put it wherever).  I might have had it in
 JK> the mud room so Carol could use it for her peanuts or the Pork roast
 JK> she and Michael made (g).. 

That's quite possible.  I'm not sure I remember for sure, though... ;)

 JK> It's got a butcher block counter-top, the breadbox, a pull out
 JK> kneeding/cutting board, and silver-ware etc. drawers in it. The bottom
 JK> is 1 large cupboard, and holds all my baking pans. Handy to have, and
 JK> we've been moving it with us since we sold our first house in Warwick
 JK> (boy that's a while ago (g)) 
 JK> We bought 3 pieces of cabinetry when we were moving to the upstairs of
 JK> my Mom's house as we were starting our company, etc. etc.  Sold the
 JK> house, bought the cabinets (never installed them since we knew we'd
 JK> not be there too long) and they have been more than usefull. :) 
 JK> Good grief (g)... all that to describe the Breadbox (VBG)

(You should hang out in MEMORIES... you'd fit right in.. ;)  And we
could use the life... [g])  You just started thinking about it, and the
memories just flood out... (G)

 >   Nice that they put their stamp of approval
 > on your bread... but sad that they were so naughty... ;(

 JK> True :)  It was a really large loaf as well.. 2lbs. Little stinkers...
 JK> Now any time anyone walks around with a plate, or fruit in their
 JK> hand, etc. etc., the doggies are right there.. just in case.. 'You
 JK> might drop it' (g) 

"Oh, sorry, didn't mean to bump you quite so hard, it was just a love
pass... sure tastes good, though... you are some great cook, mom"  (G)
