Moonie and I celebrated our friend Neal’s birthday at Ogie’s Trailer Park the other night. Moonie was quite taken with the patio decor, especially the lit-up palm tree and flamingo.

But that paled in comparison to his infatuation with the food. He was crawling all over our friends’ meals, stealing tater tots and bites of sandwiches and wurst, so he finally got his very own basket of macaroni and cheese croquettes.

He was quite happy after that.
