Day 115

 Day 115 OH looky what I tired, Puppy cookies......


  such an  easy recipe and I added just a little extra to it! :)


 So Fun.


 Ryder Man waiting so patiently by the stove for 40 whole minutes for the cookies to be done.

Peanut Butter & Oatmeal Dog Cookie Recipe


Ingredients:
2 cups flour {whole wheat, white or another flour if your dog has gluten sensitivities}.
1 cup rolled oats
1/3 cup peanut butter{smooth or crunchy}
1 1/4 cups hot water
Extra flour if need for dough stickiness and for rolling.


Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 F.
Mix dry ingredients together first.
Mic in the peanut butter and hot water. You may need to add additional flour if the dough is too sticky.
Knead the dough well.
Roll out the dough into 1/4 " thickness and cut into shapes with a cookie cutter.
Optional: Make an egg wash{one egg whisked}, and brush on the cookies before baking. This gives the cookies a nice sheen.
Place on lightly oiled cookie sheet and bake for 40 minutes. Turn off oven and allow cookies to cool in oven over night.
The cookies will be get good and hard, just the way dogs like them!
Our cookies lasted two weeks and than started to turn. So be sure and check them every few days for freshness.


PS I added a little bit of beef soup base mix to them to give them a beefy taste. RYDER loves them!!

Day 114



Day 114 I hope these pictures don't creep anyone one out, these pictures may be odd to some people but to me this is one of my very favorite spots. This is Skalholt Cemetery a quaint Icelandic Cemetery located in Sprucewoods. If you get to Sprucewoods Provincial Park, instead of turning into the top campground, continue driving east as far as you can drive you will stumble upon this little treasure. Why on earth is this one of my favorite spots? A missing piece of me is buried here. Marjorie Sigurdson (not sure when she added the extra S to her name), my Gran. My family and I come here at least once a year (though I would love to come here more, is busy and Gran would truly understand.) to leave little angels and have a talk and let her know that she is still loved. Also Buried here is her husband Simon and her son Tim which are directly behind her. I find so much peace here. Love and Miss you alsways Gran. Til we meet again <3
