That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for November 01, 2023

/// Marie’s poodle has fur black as sable.

The two sit, side-by-side, at the table.

Georges, the man Marie wed,

shooed the dog from their bed,

now, to lick Georges’ plate, it is able.

Often, the best part about a meal is the company.

“I agree the biscuits were not enough. How about we go out for a good t-bone steak.”

Margaret had had too much to drink, and thought that her dining companion was actually a fox.

Really? I also love to jump the postman!

I will not take you outside to do your business again so soon, last time you would only pierre!

Don’t you see that pink bow in her hair? Sparkling…..of course!

Henry has the rudest way of referring to my friends as dogs.

“I admit I was a b!tch when I was alive, and now here I am reincarnated as one.”

“Let’s try it one more time, Spike. How was your day?”

“Ruff.”

“Good Spike.”

“Some blind date this turned out to be.”

Fifi hoped the lawyer was as good as advertised. Her husband, Spike, was facing his 3rd charge of “felonious leg hugging” while in heat.

Berniece begins to question her new dating app

Evian teliot water please.

“You come here often?”

“So, Fifi, who does your hair?”/

My question hung in the air./

I was wondering why/

I received no reply.

Could it be that she just didn’t care?///

Fifi, knowing those vases contained her previous disobedient dogs, played anything Joanna wanted.

No, Fifi, I will not put your kibble in the Sevres bowl. You can use the everyday Royal Doulton like the rest of us.

When the painter wants to show off how many colors he can afford to keep in stock.

It’s pretty d@mn sad when you’re only drinking buddy is your dog!

“The yellower, the better!”

“I’m a female dog. I have B-word privileges.”

The techniques in that painting are so beautiful-the colors so vibrant and the sweater looks so soft. Thanks for sharing it.

“Chunky, please”.

Ahhh! First dates!

Both of their online profiles said they were fetching and liked long walks.

“You must be new around here. Want to buy a girl a drink?”

“You get around the neighborhood, what’s the latest gossip?”

What the artist thinks of her husband at breakfast…

Best date I’ve been on in months!

The husband said Either the dog goes or I go. You know what happened next.

fifi, once had a better group of friends, but now she has to settle on a old lady who can’t cook.

Marie Rochegrosse, a beautiful standard poodle, accompanied by a female human….

Fifi was already aware that Iris was insane, but offering toilet water in a place that obviously had the best puddle water in the world was the epitome of lunacy..
