Born in North Carolina and raised in New York City, Asta is my wirehair fox terrier fur friend and fellow American expat based in Budapest, Hungary. While in Budapest for a conference, Dachshund Daddy was lucky enough to meet her.
Asta writes a fabulous blog, Asta's World, where she replaces her "r's" with "w's": she wwites like I talk!
DD enjoyed a fun-packed afternoon of sightseeing and a lovely evening of fine dining with Asta and her wonderful parents.
Asta sent me a special present, which Dachshund Daddy brought home from Budapest. I had to look away, because the anticipation was too great.
A squirrel!
Asta gave me a munchy squirrel. A squiwwel!
Dear Asta, thank you so much for this special squirrel. I can't stop munching it.
Love,
Tootsie

ReplyDeleteOh Tootsie, I don't know if I am more envious of you for having such a grrrreat present, or of DD for actually having met the wonderful Asta and her Mommi and Daddi in the flesh.
ReplyDeleteAsta has not been blogging lately and Gail and I are so pleased to see her picture. We miss her very special personality in blog land.
