how to make Molly smile

as i sit in my chilly apartment, munching on chocolate thin crisps and sipping a diet coke, I am reminded of a time when i made Molly dog biscuits. it was last saturday. ah yes, i remember it well. It was chilly then too, and I had just come home from school. Molly had gifted me with cookie cutters in the shapes of things dogs like; dog houses, fire hydrants, bones, little bones, paws....and i had yet to thank her for the thoughtful gift. so i set out to begin my adventure.....
here is a very basic recipe for dog biscuits that will guarantee a puppy smile and a friend for life. or at least until someone gives her a hotdog, and then you have some stiff competition. anyway!
I gathered my ingredients, which included : Cornmeal, oil, whole wheat flour, and broth (or water. but it's a scientific fact that dogs love chicken broth.)

First, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Mix all the ingredients in a bowl, roll it out and cut away! (seriously, it's this easy!)
As many of you know, I have recently moved, and I left my rolling pin in my old apartment! but, you can't keep a good dog down(bow wow wow wow), and I found a convenient and effective replacement.

using the cookie cutter i made about 50 biscuits. I burned about 18 of them. I am still getting used to my new oven. boo me.

so then i packed them into a tin, and made my way upstate to the snowy mountains of Michellebletown. Molly liked them, quite alot. And I like Molly quite alot, so it was a win win situation.

Molly waiting not so patiently.
