The Best Homemade Dog Bone Recipe!

So I have a pup-pup named Andie girl.  I decided to try a couple recipes for homemade dog bone treats.  After making a couple different recipes I came up with my own recipe based on the bones Andie liked best.

Ingredients:

1/4 cup Peanut Butter

1 Egg

1 tbsp Parsley

1/4 cup Beef Broth

1/4 cup  Oats

1 cup Wheat or Rice Flour

Blend Peanut Butter, egg and parsley and then toss in the oats.  Add flour and mix.  The dough should not be sticky.  Fairly dry but wet enough to stick together.  Roll it out and cut out your bones or flowers depending on your cookie cutter choice.

Bake at 350 for 15 minutes.  Take out the bones and flip them over and bake for another 15 minutes.  Total bake time is 30 minutes.

 Let them cool and the dog drooling will commence!  My dog LOVES these bones!  They are easy to make and your dog will think you are the best pet parent in the world!

Pallet Potting Table

Materials:

2 2x4 8 feet long

1 2x2 8feet long

2 old pallets

Screws, Paint and sealer

Ready to be assembled:

Assembled:

Painted and sealed:

 

And how it fits in with the rest of my created items on the patio:

Upcycled small patio table

My hunny brought in a table stand and asked me if I wanted it... OF COURSE I DID!  We had recently bought a new oven and it came enclosed in wood... This is the stand and piece of wood I created from the oven wood...

I filled in the holes on the wood with extra wood I had lying around.  I sanded the stand and painted it as well as the wood table top.  I sealed the wood.... Very important step to do! I attached the top to the stand with screws and bolts. I dug out some cobalt blue tiles I had for years  to use them. I cemented them in with grout. The center square I used half sphere, sparkly, glass stones I had bought at the Dollar Tree. They were cemented in at the same time the cobalt tiles were. I grouted and this is what I ended up with for less than $3....

It fits in nicely with my other pieces I have made... Now to finish my potting table made from pallets...

Upcycled plant table

So I had this piece left over from making my patio table..

 

I removed the four pieces of board sticking down to use for legs.

I then cut a piece three boards wide from another pallet and attached the legs.  I painted and sealed my plant table and this is what I ended up with..

It is small but looks quite lovely on the patio and I don't have to bend so far to work on my plants.

Never throw away your scraps...

Pretty music

Tugs at my heartstrings...

Amaretto Strawberries

This was a tip I picked up from an old friend.  
Ingredients:
2 cups of fresh strawberries
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup amaretto

Wash the strawberries then slice them.  Place the strawberries in a bowl and add the sugar and Amaretto.  Stir gently. Place plastic wrap over the bowl and place in fridge for 1 hour minimal.  The sugar will draw out the strawberry juice and the flavors marinate together.  These are the best strawberries!  Place it on ice cream, use in a strawberry shortcake recipe or other recipes that call for strawberries.

These strawberries will add another dimension of flavor. Enjoy!
