The Strudwick File: Strud Goes Gardening, Part II

The Strudwick File: Strud Goes Gardening, Part II
Earlier this week, the landscapers came to do some routine maintenance at Megyn’s place. With Strudwick also on the premises, however, you are probably not surprised to learn there turned out to be nothing ‘routine’ about the visit. Before we let you in on what Strud got up to, let’s first see if you can …
The Strudwick File: Strud’s Night Terror, Part II

The Strudwick File: Strud’s Night Terror, Part II
I went to bed early Tuesday night because Yardley was leaving for a field trip to Washington, D.C., Wednesday morning and we had to get her to school by 6 a.m. I made her a bag of snacks and a lunch for the bus ride before bed, knowing I wouldn’t want to deal with that …
The Strudwick File: Homework Helper

The Strudwick File: Homework Helper
Weekday mornings as a kid can be a race against time to make sure all your homework is done and books are packed before heading out the door to school. You know who isn’t concerned about those schedules? Our pal Strudwick. Megyn’s son Thatcher was in the midst of putting the finishing touches on an …
The Strudwick File: Pack and Play

The Strudwick File: Pack and Play
If a picture is worth a thousand words, then a video must be worth at least double that. That was Megyn’s frame of mind when she shared the following clip documenting the destruction Strud recently left in his wake: Yes, this happened while Megyn and her family were trying to unpack after their spring break …
The Strudwick File: Strud and Thunder Go Bragh

The Strudwick File: Strud and Thunder Go Bragh
Megyn and her family celebrated St. Patrick’s Day on spring break at the beach, but that didn’t stop Thunder and Strudwick from partaking in the festivities from afar. Our four-legged friends looked ready to paddy (get it?) in their shamrock-themed attire: Whether you are Irish or not, we hope your St. Paddy’s Day was clover …
The Strudwick File: Strud Goes Bananas, Part III

The Strudwick File: Strud Goes Bananas, Part III
What’s that they say about patterns – twice is a coincidence and thrice is a trend? Well, ladies and gentlemen, we have officially hit the ‘trend’ phase of Strudwick’s banana thievery. As you may recall, he consumed an entire bunch back in January (stickers and all) and then promptly threw them up. Last month, he …
The Strudwick File: Cuddle Up

The Strudwick File: Cuddle Up
Is Strudwick allowed to sit at the kitchen table? No. Is Strudwick sitting at the kitchen table even remotely egregious when you consider all the other mischief he has caused? Also no. That brings us to this week’s edition of The Strudwick File. Megyn came into the kitchen after finishing the show earlier this week …
The Strudwick File: Strud’s Spring Cleaning

The Strudwick File: Strud’s Spring Cleaning
Spring cleaning season is quickly approaching, so we can only assume Strudwick was trying to get a jump start on the tidying up by going through some of Megyn’s cooking utensils. As you may know, Strud *loves* wooden spoons and has snacked on many over the years (see: here and here). He also damaged a …
The Strudwick File: Stair Master

The Strudwick File: Stair Master
As you may know, Strudwick and his sister Thunder are only allowed on the first floor on Megyn’s home. There have, of course, been more than a few instances in which that rule was broken (see: exhibit A, exhibit B, exhibit C, exhibit D… we could go on). More often than not, Strud’s upstairs escapades …
The Strudwick File: A Citrus Story, Part II

The Strudwick File: A Citrus Story, Part II
Remember last week when Strudwick somehow knocked a bowl of lemons from the top of the microwave? Here is a reminder of the damage: As we mentioned, Strud – in a surprising turn of events – did not sample the citrus. But we should have known better than to think his snack time was over. …
The Strudwick File: A Citrus Story

The Strudwick File: A Citrus Story
If you have been following Strudwick’s shenanigans for some time, you know that no place in Megyn’s kitchen is truly safe when he is on the prowl. Case in point? He found a way to reach a bowl of lemons… on top of the microwave! “He really wanted these lemons apparently,” Megyn said. “This is …
The Strudwick File: Peanut Butter Problems

The Strudwick File: Peanut Butter Problems
Remember when Strudwick went to town on – count ’em – six bananas last week (Dole stickers and all) that did not agree with his stomach? It wasn’t so much the snack choice that was the problem, but rather the speed and volume at which he consumed it. Well, it appears to be déjà vu …
