Is that Some Food I Hear in the Distance?

I’m not sure what distracted Marcus momentarily from his favorite pastime of tearing things into little shreds. It might have been the sound of the dishwasher opening. (He skulks around while I’m loading dirty dishes and tries to lick the plates.) He is also quick to answer the call of the refrigerator door. Even the sound of a plastic container opening will bring him over to sniff hopefully for spills. And since spills are many in our household, his alertness often pays off.

Basketball Girl made Marcus that pair of shorts to go with his peace symbol t-shirt.  When summer comes, we are planning to torment him by making him a full-scale dog outfit, but we haven’t made up our minds yet whether to go with the cowboy look or the graffiti tagger costume.
