Furst, I gotta tell ya dat I wuz NOT finkin' 'bowt takin' dat food. I din't plan fur it ta happen like it did. But geez, I din't hav nuffin' ta eet awl afternoon, an' doze fings jus' smelled sooooooooooooo good. Butcha bedder let me start at da beginnin':

Awl mornin' an' most uv da afternoon, I wuz kinda hungery. I din't want no dry stuff owtta my bowl, an' Mom woodn't giv me no treets cuz I had dat dry stuff. So I wuz jus' wanderin' arownd da howse, tryin' ta keep owtta trubbul.

Den, it started - so I gess yu cood say dat whut happened wuz reely Mom's fawlt. She started ta fix supper. Dad ast Mom, whutchu fixin', an' Mom sez kabbij rolls. Well OK - I like kabbij an' I like rolls (speshully when I yam rollin' in da grass) ... but it's snowin' owt, so I duzn't kno iffen I want ta roll in da snow. So I jus' figyur dat I will wait an' see whut's gonna happen.

Priddy soon da smellz dat iz kommin' owtta dat room wif da cold box an' da hot box wuz reely gettin' my noze stirred up. I cood smell kabbij an' toemaytoze an' meet an' my tung wuz jus' 'bowt hangin' on da floor. Den Mom an' Dad sat down ta eet, an' Dad sed boy, yu shur made plenny uv doze kabbij rolls, an' Mom sed der wood be plenny fur anuther meel. Anuther meel?! Whut duz shee meen anuther meel?! Whut iz me an' Harvey spozed ta eet?! Den Dad sed whutta 'bowt da boyz (gotta luv Dad!)? Mom sez she had wunna da kabbij rolls set aside fur us.

Jus' den, der wuzza lowd BANG! SMASH! CRASH! owt in front uv owr howse an' Mom an' Dad looked owt da window an' sed oh no, der's binna akseedent on da road. So dey ran owtside ta see iffen dey cood help.

Well, der I sat. An' sat. An' sat. An' der doze kabbij rolls sat. An' sat. An' sat. So I fawt dat iffen I got up in Mom's chayer, mebbe I cood watch doze kabbij rolls an' make shur dat dey din't fawl offen da taybul ya kno? So I got my noze down reeeeeeely close to dem so dat I cood watch dem reel good ...

An' I don't kno whut happened but I jus' snapped! Da nex' fing I herd - udder den da slurpin' an' snorkin' noyzez dat I wuz makin' - wuz Mom yellin' at da toppa her lungs "BUUUUUUUDDDDDYYYYYYYY! NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

So now I izzin my crate (burp, 'scuse me) an' Mom izn't tawkin' ta me (burp, 'scuse me aggen) an' Dad's got wunna doze "dat's my boy" looks on hiz face (burp, burp, buuuuuuurp - wow, 'scuse me). An' ya kno whut? I fink dat mebbe 12 kabbij rolls wuz jus' a liddul too mutch - but boy oh boy oh boy wuz dey good! (BUUUUUUURP!)
