New Years lobster v Basset race!

eclairs mom · 12-31-2011, 08:29 PM

Well a family tradition is to have live lobsters New Years Eve, and before the tasty crustaceons hit the pot we race them across the kitchen floor.

We just had the race and both Eclair and Ethel deicded that they were moving too slow and similtaneously stole one and bolted upstairs! It was too funny for words! Unfortunately I couldnt get to the camera in time as I was saving dinner.

Happy New Year Basset peeps! May 2012 bring us all and our four legged friends health, happiness, belly rubs and many milk bones!

Oh see I can't stand this, the poor things. I would have to kill them first. But I have no need to worry I am allergic to shell fish. Happy New Year
