Shrink in the Kitchen

While he is no gourmand, my office staff of one, namely, Bello, provides free-spirited conversations relating chiefly to food.  It is, I think it fair to say, his main preoccupation.  Discussions, which tend to be one-sided, I’ll admit, nonetheless provide us both with a good feeling and a broad sense of well-being.  The refrigerator opens: Out waft aromas of Emmental, ground veal, and smoked salmon.  Then all seems right in the world.  A dog has its priorities in order.
