It is time to start pulling together
ideas for doggie treat gift baskets.
Every year I bake my little heart out.
Every year my husband complains. (Playing of course, playing.)
For my baking endeavors benefit not him but our dogs and the dogs of our family and friends. I don't know what it is, but I have always found my enjoyment in baking for my four-legged buddies. I don't quite know what it is, but to each her own, yes?
Tonight I baked some "dogscotti"- a crowd favorite here at casa de three dogs. I decided to take out the peanuts and add some carob for a little twist. Tucker, Bpui and Sherman did not protest. I have to say that the smell of chocolate filling the air was pleasing and warm. Ahhhh....
This new chocolate dogscotti recipe is a keeper indeed. I will have to add it to this year's "Woofman's Sampler" that I gift to our hound friends.
Sherman, Bpui and Tucker wait somewhat patiently for their carob dogscotti.
In other news, I will have a table at the
Crafty Rumpus Artisan Fair this year. The Rumpus will be held Saturday, December 5th at the Greenfield Center School. I will be selling homemade doggie treats, dog 'bling' for collars, and baby burp cloths and snuggle blankies.
My mother and I attended last year and there were some really cute things for sale. My hope is that folks will think about their doggers during the holiday season and treat them to something special. I am even going to sell the goodies in snazzy packaging with our very own speical labels! (I had my first graders draw pictures of dogs- I am going to pick one for the labels. I'll post the winning artwork later!)
If you are in the area on December 5th, stop by!
