So yesterday was National Shrimp Scampi Day. That sounded really good so I had mom send an email to my Granmama and ask her if we could have it for supper. G wrote back and said maybe. Well, I was a little disappointed because she didn’t say yes right away. When mom and I got to G’s yesterday after work, SURPRISE! G said we were going to have some! Yeah! Or at least I thought it was yeah! – I didn’t get to have any. Mom said it was too much garlic, too much butter too, much salt, too much everything. She said I could have some salad if I wanted. I said, “no thanks.” Oh, well, so much for Shrimp Scampi Day! Maybe next year.

So, tell me mom, when is G going to start the shrimp?
Yes, I saw this box on the counter. I want to know when is supper?
Oh, yeah! the pasta’s in the pot!!
There it is on the stove! Oh it smells so good. I hope mom changes her mind and lets me have some!
No mom, I said I don’t want salad. Bleccchhh!
It really looks good. Just once piece of shrimp, please???
G, I want some shrimp – NOW!!!!
Fine – be that – way. I’ll have my doggie snack. Mom, if you think I’m going to give you any kisses when we get home – aw, forget it – mom, you know I love you no matter what. Even if you won’t give me any shrimp scampi!

Lady Bird, that absolutely stinks! We think your mommy should have sucked or washed the garlic and butter off of a shrimp and given it to you. We don’t get human food, but we definitely can commiserate. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo

The mom makes that same shrimp scampi, LadyBird. We’ve never had any either.
