Crate vs. no crate while home alone?

    LOL Callie.  Tyler, now that he is feeling well, has turned into quite the stinker!  I came upstairs yesterday and discovered that he'd decided to sample the asparagus that I'd left on the diningroom table AND the turnips that were laying there waiting for me to use them for pasties.  Came back up a SECOND time and he'd dragged out the 10 lb bag of potatoes AND the flour canister.  Luckily the taters were getting used in the pasties also, so I didn't have any wasted....just a bit thicker peeling.......but THIS is the pup who wouldn't take a TOY out of the basket when he came back!

    What are "pasties". I think where I live they are something VERY different.

    lol Mick, I was thinking the same thing!!! [:D]
    • Gold Top Dog
    No they are NOT the little things that strippers wear!!
     
    I'm not sure of their origin, but I'm thinking Finnish.  They are bascially a meat pie.....beef, pork, tater, turnip, carrot and onion all mixed together and then wrapped in pie crust.  Yummy.

    Was thinking something totally not food related aswell.......lol[8D]
    We had previously always crated Sasha when we first brought her home. We tried just leaving her loose in her room and she decided she didn't like that and  tried to rip the wall down. We now let her have free roam of the house, for some reason aslong as she is not closed behind any doors she is not destructive at all. Just doesn't like being confined to one room I guess but she does fine in the crate so don't know....lol. Jake is always crated when both of us are gone and at night. He would chew everything![:D]

    Hahahaha. I thought the same thing when I traveled to the UP but then found out they were what Glenda said...a meat pie sort of thing. They are actually pretty tastey!

    Pretty tasty doesn't cover it. Some of the store bought ones have all kinds of wierd stuff like cream cheese in them, but man, the ones I make from oldest sis's recipe really kick butt!

    Those Finnish pasties sound ALMOST as good as the Cincinnati pasties.
    • Gold Top Dog
    Come on Mic, be honest.  It's not the Cincy pasties you like...it's whats UNDER them!!  [:D]
