Ed Levine's Serious Diet, Week 80: Remembering Our Serious Eater Beagle Brass
I'm so sorry, my parents put down their black lab yesterday, like Brass he had not eaten for the past three days. I have two beagles and remember seeing them laying at the top of the stairs sharing a five pound brisket that they had snuck from the table. Beagles. :-)

Marinated/grilled portebella mushroom burger with havarti, avocado and sprouts or lettuce on a grilled wheat bun or
Roasted edamame seasoned with garlic salt, cayenne and seasoned salt, then topped with some cheddar or
Sprouts, cucumber, avocado, tomato, little bit of hummus, cheddar and muenster, little bit of ranch dressing on wheat.

Heading to Chinatown in Chicago on Sundays with my grandparents for Dim Sum. My grandfather built for some of the owners so we were treated like royalty. My grandma's polish cooking, my other grandma's big farm dinners with pot roast and potatos, my grandpa eating peaches with honey and cream, my other grandpa always waiting up for us to arrive with oranges, fried balongna sandwiches and ovaltine. My dad's sourdough pancakes, my mom asking me to call my dad and ask if we could go out to eat. :-)
Ed Levine's Serious Diet, Week 80: Remembering Our Serious Eater Beagle Brass
Brassy was pound for pound the greatest hound dog the world has ever seen. He pursued food with ingenuity, stealth and sheer athleticism. Once Marcia and I picked up a Carnegie Deli corned beef sandwich for Vicky, who was convalescing and had expressed that somewhat out-of-character craving. Before I had two feet in the door Brass charged like a wounded tiger and leaped impossibly high, given his short legs and considerable girth. I pulled my arm up in the nick of time, saving Vicky's lunch, but Brass earned my eternal respect that day. RIP, Brassy. We'll miss you.

Someplace in Doggy Heaven Brass is communicating with our dear departed Suzy Beagle, his soulmate. Suzy ate crayons and balloons with gusto. She got into the garbage can and devoured the skeletal remains of 6 barbecued chickens. Forget that bit about never giving chicken bones to a dog, she did fine. She did, however, become a bit bloated, after eating 5 lbs of ditalini and then taking a long drink, however the 5 pounds of blood meal fertilizer went down just fine.

Brass's story brought bake lovely memories of our wonderful "Puppy" - a mixed breed terrier of dubious parentage and who blessed our lives for 19 years. She, too, was a serious eater, and our favorite Puppy story is the year that she was left in our van with a gift wrapped FIVE POUND box of See's Candy for approximately two minutes, while I stepped out of the van to mail some letters. In that two minutes, Puppy managed to open the box of candy and devour every single piece! Thank God she was not chocolate sensitive. We took her to the vet, who said basically to wait and see what happens. What happened was that Puppy went home and slept for about two days straight and following that short rehab period, was fine. I'd like to say she never tried to eat any more candy, but that would be a lie, since no food was safe from her skinny little terrier self. I still miss her very much twenty-five years later.
Thank you for the lovely story.

Ed and Vicki,
What a wonderful piece abt Brassy. Another passing of an era, like college graduation.... I still remember you "just walking the dog" in the morning -- staying 2 blocks behind W when he first started going to school on his own. Time moves on but the memories continue to glow--
Best, Gael

I like nilla wafers in French onion dip. I also like maple syrup in beef stew but once that's in it's not as obvious as the cookies in dip.
