new Pookie Treats

Recipe: Gluten Free Peanut Butter and Bacon Dog Treats

Summary: makes 15-20 treats

Ingredients

• 1 cup oat flour (you can just whip up your own by grinding up rolled oats)
• 1 cup brown rice flour (or you can substitute regular or whole wheat flour)

1. Preheat oven to 350°. In a medium bowl combine all wet ingredients until well blended. Add both flours to wet mixture to form dough.
2. Roll out between two pieces of parchment paper or lightly floured work surface to 1/4 inch thick.
3. Cut out with cookie cutter. (I used a dog bone shape cookie cutter)
4. Place treats on a parchment lined baking sheet (they can be close together, just not touching) and bake for 20-25 minutes.
5. Cool in oven, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
6. Store about a weeks worth on the counter in a sealed container and the rest can go in the freezer.

VERTICAL-VEGETABLES


Amy, i don't remember what kind of sunlight you get on your back porch area (you know, where i sit and smoke) but this would be perfect for some herbs, or lettuce or even cherry tomatoes.

the instructions are on the link and there are many ways to adapt this to any area.  i think you need to grow some veggies for your veggie man!!!

here's another version i found that's full of succulents.  beautiful, huh!!!

new in photography. 
SHOOT now; FOCUS later


 it's supposed to be the next big move in photography.  the same as when cameras went from film to digital.  it's amazing and you almost don't need to focus the camera!


a shoot and go with more editing abilities AFTER the picture is taken.  from what i understand it reads more "light" than the current cameras but i have no clue the price and it will probably be a zillion dollars.  lol


  the news report on TV says it was tested by a group but the camera was encased in a bulky case so that they couldn't see the "innards" of it.


 here's the website where you can manipulate pictures for yourself


lytro.com/picture_gallery website; see for yourself !!!


and then for the real girly girl in you!!!

Mom and her iPhone

she's learned to text
and she texts ALOT
and it's usually to me.


our conversations always include:


What are you doing?

and always tells me when she's getting in the shower/bath and when she's going to sleep.  lol
if i post something interesting or send a picture without telling her where i am, she calls.


even though there are many interruptions during my day of "cleaning-cooking-farming", i enjoy the messages that make me stop and be with her.  i know that she is sitting there waiting for my response.  lol  how do i tell her that sometimes people don't answer text messages right away.  but i do.  and anyone else's message.  i can't help myself.  it's not like i'm sitting at a desk, slaving for da' man!!
