At least they're local, all natural potato chips.....

I am a strong believer that any meal can be improved by fresh bread, and I am lucky that my husband makes a killer baguette. If dinner is particularly soppy, the four of us can easily gobble up a whole loaf, but sometimes there is a little stub leftover.

I know that the pigeons and gulls do not draw nutritional value from our morsels, and that they probably laze around after our feeding frenzy asking themselves "Why did I just do that? I feel so bloated...", like I do after overindulging in potato chips, but I can justify it. Simon lures them in with the crumbs and then darts off like a maniac trying to catch one. I am hopeful that Simon will learn that his chase is moot before the pigeons start recognizing him as a potential threat.
