Midas

Dharma as Queen Midas.

You know the story of King Midas, don't you? He foolishly wished that everything he touched would turn to gold. That was great, until he tried to eat...and his food turned to gold, too. And his beloved daughter ran into his arms...and turned to gold.

Gold everywhere, and nothing to eat!

In some versions of the story, after he learned his lesson, the gods relented. Don't worry, Queen Midas was smart enough to ask for something slightly different: everything she pees on turns to gold.

And, yes, our model did get tasty treats. No wonder the vet told us she needs to lose about 12 oz. today. That's a lot when you weigh less than ten pounds. Poor puppy! Shots and a diet!

Next time: Pandora.
