Having your cake and eating it to...

Today is Molly's 7th birthday! So I had to make her a cake, right? Actually I made 10 of them!

Peanut Butter Doggie Cupcakes

1 cup whole wheat flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 cup peanut butter
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup shredded carrots
1 tsp vanilla
1/3 cup honey (I used 1/4 cup, which was sweet enough)
1 egg

Directions:Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C)

Mix together flour and baking soda. Add remaining ingredients and mix well. Pour into cupcake cups and bake for 18 minutes. Makes 10 cupcakes.

Peanut Butter Cream Cheese Frosting

When is enough, enough?

Molly has a few beds...and she uses them all.



In the living room. I call this her princess and the pea bed. I can always tell when she is not feeling well, she'll use this bed (it was Teddy's bed)



Kitchen, she likes this one when everyone is gathered around the table.





This is one of two Burrow beds she has. This one is in the den, where I do my bookkeeping, packaging, etc.



Her least favorite. Her "sleeping" crate.



In the family room, her Winter time favorite. It sits in front of the wood stove.



Her second burrow bed is in my studio. She likes this bed when I'm making beads. Plus she is able to see out the window. Very nosy dog...






This one really isn't a bed, it's the window seat in my studio. It's her favorite spot when I'm working on silver. Plus, it's got a view of the front yard, so she can watch the cars drive by, like I said nosy...

Discovery

We have discovered that a certain someone in this house doesn't like things on her head! Not even her Halloween costume! Oh well, she is still my little pumpkin....
If you would like to enter the Halloween Costume Contest...you have until this Sunday (Oct.18th) Please see the post below for all the details....

Costume anyone?

Calling all my four-legged friends (or 2-legged if you are a bird) that love Halloween!
I'm having a Halloween Costume Contest (on my blog) for all my "animal" friends!
Doesn't that sound like fun!

Here are the rules...
1) You can only send one (1) picture. But you can include more than one animal in your picture. In fact, the more the merrier, don't you think?

2) PLEASE send your photo to MY EMAIL ADDRESS, missmollygrimes@gmail.com

3) You can only submit a picture of your own pet. NOT ANYONE ELSE'S. sorry you can not borrow a friend's pet.

4) The deadline to submit your photo is Oct. 18th, so we have time to vote for the winners. Pictures will be displayed right here on my blog on Oct.19th

5) Prizes? Well of course! The top three pictures with the most votes will win something (my mom is working on that)

6) Please include your name (pet) and your mom or dad's name.

So what are you waiting for...tell your mom or dad that you too want to be included in this fun event!

Addicted

A couple years ago, while going through Starbucks drive-through. One of the employees gave Molly a tiny cup of whip cream. Now every time we go get coffee, she thinks she should have some "whip" too...can you say SPOILED.
