Celery Leafs

Whenever I buy celery, Haiku expresses an intense interest in the celery leaves.  I usually save them and dry them, to use as celery flakes in cooking.  I put them in a plastic dish I put on top of the microwave.  One morning, that dish was on the floor, most of the celery leaves in it gone.

Wednesday, I was cutting up celery for the Thanksgiving dressing.  It was a new package of celery, and I was stripping the leaves. I was sitting at the table.  Haiku got up on the table and started snuffling through the celery leaves.  So, that dish of celery leaves became hers.  Every once in a while she has been chewing on the leaves in that dish; they are actually disappearing quickly.

Okay, So This Might Be Disgusting to You, But So Be It

Haiku likes celery leaves.  I was fixing dinner tonight, and took out the package of celery.  The ends of the celery were sticking out of the end of the package, and there were celery leaves on the ends.

Haiku just munched and rubbed and rubbed against the ends of the celery and against the celery leaves. This went on for some time. 

I know this is very unsanitary, but I can cut off the ends of the celery. I can not always please Haiku.

The most amazing part of this is that I had the celery out to include in a tuna salad.  There was a bowl of as yet unadulterated tuna also on the counter. Haiku ignored that!
