Object Lesson
There are certain precautions one learns to take: hand washing during flu season, closing the windows when the air conditioner is on, leaving extra travel time during rush hour.
And then there is the land of New Precautions, which is where I find myself.
Felix came home from art class today sporting an exquisite necklace made of beads, colored pieces of pasta, felt bits, plastic doodads and whatnot. Eventually he took of the necklace and left it somewhere.
This simply can't done when one has a small terrier around and a horrible crunching sound made me realize that no pasta artwork can be left on any terrier-accessible surface. Because even raw pasta is food, and terriers tend to be very, very hungry.
I did salvage the work, but word to the wise: pets will eat art.
