Recipe for Rezmut

 

Ingredients

1 cup patience

1 playground, with and without kids

1 gallon's worth sense of smell

3 cups sense of sight

1 weedy area, set aside

2 gentle eyes

1 ton of sweetness

a pinch of natural spices

45 tons of white fur, gathered from every comfortable spot in the house (and every corner too)

1 tablespoon of bark

4 webbed feet

any puddle or lake

Heinz 57

 

Directions

Take one school playground, sometimes with kids, and sometimes without. Pour in the sense of smell sifted with the sense of sight. Apply the ton of sweetness as the kids stream out of the building, some of whom carry fingers full of food. Stir in the two gentle eyes viewing for vittles. Add one warning bark when danger nears. Sprinkle a pinch of natural spices, if a growl or chase is required. Fold in the four webbed feet for the puddle or lake. Include Heinz 57 species of canine. When done, sweep up the 45 tons of white fur that results, and hug your Rezmut (reservation mutt).
