Monty, Caroline's black lab/golden retriever mix and stalwart member of the office staff, chewed his way through two foil-wrapped packages, one containing a large piece of Halloween decorated cake and the other, several deliciously baked Italian cookies...all 'carefully put away' to give to the garage attendant on duty in a DAG staffer's condo complex. Moreover, the 'carefully put away' description and Monty's access to these treats defies logical thinking: Those two wrapped items were stored in the hollow of a collapsible witch's hat that was then placed in a plastic shopping bag, resting in the middle of the staffer's office desk. When Monty's deed was discovered, the plastic bag was found partially under the desk alongside the hat, and the shredded foil wrap scattered about. The upshot of the whole incident is twofold: Monty has wonderfully hygienic eating habits, for there was no trace of gooey cake frosting in the hat nor crumbs on the floor. Secondly, when returning home and into her parking garage, this staffer was able to expand on that old adage: "the dog ate my homework" saying instead to the person intended for the treats: "The dog ate your cake and cookies!" **This shall remain anonymous so as not to alert the reader to the identity of the staffer whose practice it is to carry away refreshment left-overs with which to ply the parking attendent to get her a good space in the garage.
