A Little Christmas Cheer!

I just could not resist posting this video I captured last week of our new little kitten, Mr. Butters.  I was trying to test and untangle christmas lights and of course, Mr. Butters thought that the strands of lights were the perfect play-thing.  I felt this video really captured the spirit of Christmas.  It filled my heart with joy when I watched it and I just wanted to spread the cheer.  Be sure to have the volume up so you can hear the song in background & enjoy!

CHRISTMAS KITTY

Luke 1:41 - When Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting, the baby leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit. 

Luke 2:10-11 - And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.

Emergency Preparedness Part II: Pets

Good Morning & Welcome to another Worry-Free Wednesday post!

I thought this Wednesday I would carry on with the Emergency Preparedness theme that I started a couple of weeks ago.  So, this time I'd like to cover an important topic that many of us might overlook, our pets.  I figure since they are like family to us, we should consider them in our emergency preparedness plan as well.

Dog Treats

Howdy Everyone!

Glad to be back from the long weekend.  I hope you all had an enjoyable one.  Time for another Tasty Tuesday recipe & this time I’m dedicating it to the dogs.  Here’s the recipe for my dog’s favorite treat, Peanut Butter Puppy Poppers. They are so easy to make, dogs love them & they’re healthy too.  Just be sure to use all natural peanut butter.  I use Adams chunky style.

Peanut Butter Puppy Poppers

Ingredients

2 cups wheat flour

1 Tbls. baking powder

1 cup milk

1 cup peanut butter (natural)

Chopped cooked bacon or bacon bits (optional)

Directions

Combine flour & baking powder in large mixing bowl.  In separate bowl, combine peanut butter & milk with electric mixer.  Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients.  Stir in bacon bits if desired. 

Coat baking sheets with non-stick spray.  Drop dough in tablespoon sized balls.  Flatten balls into flat cookies. 

Bake in 400 degree oven for 10 minutes & then flip cookies over and bake for 5 to 10 more minutes.  Cookies should be dark brown.  Let cool completely.
