Substitution
by carolynholm
Cher Madame,
Il faut dire, the dinner last night was excellent! Madame she has surpassed herself.
Regards, M. Le Poufin
Dear Puffin,
I’m so glad you liked it! I wasn’t sure you would.
Love, Carolyn
Cher Madame,
Moi, I can’t imagine why Madame would not be sure. C’était delicious.
Regards, M. Le Poufin
Dear Puffin,
We had a little problem last night.
Love, Carolyn
Cher Madame,
Un problem? What kind of problem???????
Regards, M. Le Poufin
Dear Puffin,
It was necessary to make a substitution. Due to an inventory oversight.
Love, Carolyn
Cher Madame,
Et this oversight was what, exactement?
Regards, M. Le Poufin
Dear Puffin,
We ran out of cat food, and I thought I had more in the supply cupboard but it turned out to be, well, dog food there.
Love, Carolyn
Cher Madame,
You gave us DOG FOOD????????
Regards, M. Le Poufin
Dear Puffin,
Sorry. I had no choice.
Love, Carolyn
Cher Madame,
But, vraiment, dog food? C’est un insult to cats everywhere.
Regards, M. Le Poufin
Dear Puffin,
But you two really tucked into it.
Love, Carolyn
Cher Madame,
Ouf. We were hungry an hour later.
Regards, M. Le Poufin
Dear Puffin,
Nothing’s perfect.
Love, Carolyn

We guess sometimes dog food with have to do for the time being. Maybe it’s time to stock up on some delicious kitty food so this problem doesn’t happen again. Thanks for the share.
