Make your own Doggie Biscuits

My family was spending way too much money on doggie treats, so I searched high and low for a great healthy but cheap recipe so that I could make my own. Carter even helped me make them!!

Doggie Biscuits
2 cups whole wheat flour
3 tablespoons canola oil
1/4 cup chicken stock
1 egg
1 jar meat flavored baby food (chicken or turkey)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Using a wooden spoon, combine all ingredients in a medium-size mixing bowl, or mix in your mixer as all ingredients are edible.
Place on a lightly floured cutting board, and knead about 10 times until smooth.
Using a rolling pin, roll dough until its 1/4 inch thick.
You can cut these in fun shapes like paw prints or bones, or something simple like cut in squares or use something small and circular. (I used a sprinkle lid)
Place on a lightly greased baking sheet and bake for about 15 minutes.
Cool completely before feeding to your doggie.

WOOF WOOF! YOU DID IT!!

Happy Belated Birthday to MOM!!

Happy Birthday to my Mom!! I feel so horrible, her birthday was on the 9th of April and I know she reads this and has probably been waiting for this! :-)  She knows and understands how crazy life has been though. That is was makes her so awesome, she gets it, she understands life!!

We had a great time on her birthday. I was baking all morning for the Niello Ranch Run. I made over 200 cupcakes for the event (I will talk about that later) and she is so awesome that she stopped by in the morning and helped ALOT!!! She even went with me to deliver an order I made at the same time for a friend that I have had for a LONG time!

We went and had pizza with the whole family. I made her some spring flower cupcakes becuase she loves working in the yard and garden outside. She loves it... I hate it! haha!!

I really do have an amazing Mom, and I swear she can read my mind and always knows when I need a hug or I need talking to.

I have been going through some tough stuff lately and she has been so understanding and helpful!!

Thanks Mom for being amazing and being who you are! You are amazing and I love you so so much!!! XOXO
