It seems that our posh poodle is allergic to dog food. We've been doing our research and decided the best option was to start giving her meat, mostly raw chicken wings and feet. That ends up cheaper than dog food here, so we're going to give it a try for both Taza and Ellie for the next two weeks. This morning I sent our housekeeper to the market to buy their food, and she returned with the yuckiness below. I find it mildly ironic that we don't eat meat at home but our dogs do.In the process of defrosting the freezer to store the assorted chicken parts, Tim pierced whatever was holding the freon, and now our refrigerator doesn't work. That would probably be fine except for the 40 lbs of chicken we just bought. I found a friend to store the chicken and we're waiting on someone to come by this afternoon to see if the fridge can be fixed. Fingers crossed.
I did ask my housekeeper if she could store the chicken, but it turns out she doesn't have a refrigerator. Well, she has one but it's missing the seal part so she uses it for a bookshelf. Honest. Most people here also don't have hot water or a stove, but they manage just fine. Those aren't necessities if you think about it, and if 99% of your neighbors don't have them either, it becomes normal.
