by Recipes Chasing The Queen
Just the other day, I was taking out the trash and left it in the corner of the door as a reminder to take it out when I left the apartment. But after I went into the office for a 20 min conference call, I found Butters’ on the kitchen floor eating a zucchini round along with a huge tear on the bottom of the trash bag.
