Guest Blog from Boris Trapp
My BFF Boris Trapp who lives in Tennessee and owns his Dad Erich, has sent me something so wonderful that I am making him Guest Author for April. Since it is April Fools Day After, I have decided this is appropriate.
I complain sometimes that I don't think my Mom is entirely honest with me. So here is what Boris says about that.
Now Bob -- I must chide you (you might have to look that one up -- it's a pretty old word and not in circulation much anymore). Moms never lie -- they 'stretch the truth.' And usually "it is for our own good" (this is a perfect example of stretching the truth.) Here is the definition of "stretching the truth": "to say something which is not completely honest in order to make someone or something seem better than it really is." See -- it's not really a lie so much as an exaggeration to make us (1) feel good and/or (2) comply. Mom's do this all the time. It is in their genetic makeup. Once a person becomes a Mom, she automatically starts stretching the truth, especially if her other friends are Moms too, and she has to say nice things like their babies/puppies/kittens are cute, when she knows darned well HER babies/puppies/kittens are far cuter than any others on the planet. And it just snowballs from there. One stretch leads to another and another. This is how Mom's protect us from getting our feelings hurt.
I am glad your Aunt Tracie is sending you a steak as you will enjoy that greatly. Honestly (and this is no lie) you will definitely enjoy the steak more than The Honest Kitchen -- and I don't care HOW good THK is -- nothing beats a steak ... except maybe two steaks. And if she does send two steaks you can bet I will be over to share one!!! And, you don't have to cook it or add water or anything. You can eat it raw! I have eaten raw steak and it is yummy. But don't wolf it (a dog pun, get it) or it might make your tummy unhappy. Always chew your food well. (This is another thing Moms always tell us.)
Anyway, I hope someone will sneak you a yummy package of the Honest Kitchen sample. I think you are a very deserving Pit Bull, and work very hard. If you can't have a date with Isaboo the least you can have is a sample of THK.
Your New Friend,
Boris Trapp (My Dad says he's going to get us our (my brother and sisters and me) our own email address. I hope so. I don't want him reading my emails and correcting all my spelling. Actually, my Dad is a lousy speller -- which is kind of sad since he teaches humans something called College English! I'm not sure what that is, but when he grades papers he often pulls his hair, rubs his eyes, stomps around, and whacks his head against the wall. I guess teaching this College English thing is very frustrating. He needs a chill-pill.)
Bye again,
Boris
So there you have it. This is really straight shooting, if you ask me.
And just so everyone knows. Our friends at THE HONEST KITCHEN have furnished the food for Hudson and Murphy for their trek of 2000 miles. Boris and I decided that it would be hard for Luke & The Boys to carry raw steak around with them while walking. Besides, I think that Mr. Luke only likes veggies, so steak is out of the question. However anyone interested in having Omaha Steaks send Boris and me a couple of cases.....feel free. We'll be waiting.
Love and LIcks from Bob and Boris, BFF's and lovers of fine food
Do you want to be a guest Blogger? If you do, just make a comment and I will consider it while I am chewing it over. HA That's a good one.

Oh and also..... and this is important. Boris' Dad, Erich volunteers for Luke & Da'Boys and he writes the most amazing newsletters with wonderful stuff, so if you don't already get that you need to.
