You're turning violet, Violet!



Does anyone remember what movie that is from? Yup one of mom's favorites...Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory! In it one of the girls named Violet loves to chew gum. She comes across a piece that mimics eating full meals. Wonka tries to stop the girl from eating it, but she does anyways....you know why? When she gets to the desert of blueberry pie, she plumps up like a blueberry.

Well, mom thought I'd like these all natural blueberry treats, so she got them for me. At first I wasn't so sure, so I decided to put it in my bed, you know, like store it for when mom and dad hold out on treats. See, some bit(er woman) commented about me at the dog park...saying that I had "filled out", man if I wasn't so nice I would have beat the...err sorry...so anyways, dad thinks I'm getting too pudgy so they've cut back on treats and meals. So last night I was S T A R V I N G, and no amount of orbs was going to make mom give in. So I went to plan B, aka plan blueberry. So I ate that treat, not the best treat I've ever eaten, but desperate times and all that. So about an hour later, I try looking up from my bed to check in with mom (she was mesmorized by True Blood on DVD) and I couldn't open my eyes! I was freaking out!! Mom paused (hey...can't miss a beat on that show or you're lost) and came to see what was up. My poor eyes had swollen shut and my face was puffy. I looked awful!! Mom texted dad all in a panic, and he figured that blueberry was the culprit.

Luckily we have benedryl at the house from my allergies and I was fine by this morning....but last night was ruff. Mom took a picture, but I talked her out of posting it...it didn't do my orbs justice (seeing that you couldn't actually see my orbs!). Anyone else out there have similar experience? I'd love to have you share with the rest of the class.

Oh and if anyone hasn't seen Willy Wonka and The Chocolate Factory...mom highly recommends the original with Gene Wilder (not her dream man Johnny Depp)...
