Twice...TWICE...i have made lemon poppy seed muffins from scratch (pretty amazing if you ask me), and TWICE Ziya the monster dog has, well...been a monster. (just to be clear, i do like the dog...but she is really good being a pain...and "monster" is clearly a term of endearment here)
The muffins make a huge recipe, so both times i thought i'd share them, since i'd have more than my family needed to eat. The first time she got up on the counter in the middle of the night, took down the ziplock bag, tore it open and ate 1/2 the muffins and squished the other 1/2. ARGH.
Tonight i was walking out the door with some muffins in a glass cake pan, and i was taking the dog out too...i know, doesn't seem to make sense, but believe me, it did. i was going to meet some friends and we were going to take Ziya on a walk to burn off some of her pent up energy from a week of minimal exercise due to sickness (of my family...not the dog). I open the door. Ziya is thrilled to be going for a walk. She runs. the leash pulls. my cake pan goes flying...and shatters all over the front porch. shards of glass everywhere. muffins and glass in the bush next to the porch...and still a dog anxious for a walk.
there goes another batch of muffins. i guess its not really her fault...and i had a good night anyway...but i may not make the muffins again for awhile. it doesn't seem worth the risk!
