We all have favourites... be it food, actors, drinks, people or even Gods. This is a rare photo for me : combining two of my biggest favourites in a single shot.
Which two favourites ?
A) Ruby, the wonder dog.
Born in our very own house more than 12 years ago, she's been there as a caring companion throughout our lives and is a constant reminder that when it comes to loyalty, dogs are better than humans everyday. Age has diminished her eyesight and reflexes, but not her loving heart.
Oh ya, and she blogs too. What ? You don't believe me ? Check this out then.
B) Prawns.
What is your first memory in life ?
Mine is of me stealing a bowl of fried prawns meant for the entire family, going to my room and eating it all by myself.
Three decades later, it's still not safe to keep a bowl of prawns around me.
Judging by the look in her eyes, I think that dictum applies to Ruby too !!
P.S. For those who're worried/wondering, naaa..relax. We don't give her spicy food.She's just performing her ritual of being the official 'food sniffer' of my plate.
Some airports hire dogs to sniff out drugs. Ruby's too posh to work at an airport so she just sniffs out hazardous stuff which she can consume to save time for me : stuff like bones between chicken, meat between rice, peanuts between closed palms and the ever deadly - ice cream out of the fridge.
Quick question : Name the first 2 'favourites' that come in your mind.

I am a gr8 fan of Sea food!
Sharat, I know... I'm trying to catch up with her still... if I could only learn to get the morning paper and Chase after cars, I'd be ahead of her ;)
ReplyDeleteRohan, good choice... once upon a time, books were my favourite too. sadly, haven't read anything in ages.
Harman, all the best trying to cuddle Ms Prima Donna here. She knows she's the centre of attraction at home so usually doesn't come to get petted... she knows we'll come to her.
and ya, seafood is a craze here too... of that, prawns rule of course.
i think my first two would be biriyani and books. I was going to say food but then that's too generic :)
