Imagine my surprise when I found my daughter's little dog, Trixie, passed out on the couch. Take a look:
Now, I can't be certain she actually drank the wine. Let's face facts, cats are pretty sneaky. Bob could have set her up. Quite possibly, he could have stolen the wine, drank it, and simply slid the bottle near Trixie as she slept. It wouldn't surprise me. Of course, when I suggested this to Bob, he said nothing. Just stared at me. I'm not sure if that meant anything...but to me his silence was telling: I decided he was guilty as sin!
Then I tried to wake Trixie up. Poking and prodding, with a little shaking, I wanted to see if she was simply sleeping or was, in fact, drunk as the proverbial skunk. She didn't move. Snored away. My only conclusion had to be Bob was innocent of at least one charge: He didn't 'set her up' as I first suspected. He probably corrupted her, led her astray, but it looks like Trixie drank this bottle on her own. Bad doggie!
On the other hand, she did choose the 2006 Bremer Chardonnay. At least she has great taste in wine.
