We got a basset-beagle mix from the SPCA shortly after we moved into a very small condo back when my daughter was young, and as soon as we got the dog home, it was apparent it was a MUCH bigger dog than it had appeared in the cage in the SPCA, and we'd made a huge mistake. Several weeks later we found a lovely home for her in the country with a really sweet family. One week after they took her in, she ate an entire chocolate pound cake the wife had left cooling on the counter. Fortunately, by then they were so smitten with her, it wasn't a big deal!
I enjoyed that sweet potato story so much I just read it out loud to my Best Beloved, who also enjoyed it. Thanks for posting it - it's been a trying day (no power through most of it, and 100+ heat) - I needed a good laugh!
