Small Slice

A great way to avoid eating everything on your plate is this:

• Fill your plate with yummy dinner.

• Place the plate on the seat of your dining chair so that you can photograph it for your silly little online album.  You are short, see, unlike the lovely and talented Tracy of Picture This, so you find that you get better shots if the subject is lower than table height.

• Realize that the camera is in the other room.  Go get it.

• Return to see your dog scarfing up your carefully proportioned plate. 

Well, then.  That was simple!  You can't eat what has already disappeared, can you?

Lucky for me, I hadn't passed out all the food, and was able to put together another plate for myself.
Damn dog.
