Wednesday I knew it was going to rain, but still did some laundry. Hubby has been working overtime, and forgot to put his laundry in the utility room. We have indoor racks so it was not a big deal.
I had no produce to put up (feeling sort of odd about that too), so I whipped up some dog treats. I now have them on hand for grand-pup visits here or their place. I used my home grown pumpkin puree to make them. All organic ingredients. Normally, I'd bake these with our homegrown carrots, but we were force to plant late, and I have not even checked them yet. I've used a few different recipes, but here is one of them:
Homemade Organic Dog Treats
3/4 cup organic pumpkin puree (I grow my own pie pumpkins)
1/4 cup shredded organic carrots
1/3 cup organic (ingredients should say peanuts only) peanut butter
1/4 tsp. organic cinnamon
1 egg beaten (I use our organic fed hen eggs)
2 cups organic all purpose flour
Preheat oven to 350°F, line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Mix all ingredients, roll on a pastry cloth or floured surface, to about 1/2 inch thickness. Use a cookie cutter to cut dog treats, place on lined baking sheets and bake about 15-17 minutes, or until they are just turning brown.
I also whipped up some more Einkorn Snickerdoodles for the family. Our youngest was a bit disappointed to come home with no cookies after a very hot day at school. She is also starting to feel the stress of being back to school.
I made baked einkorn chips for the first time. First tray I didn't bake long enough, but I'll definitely be making them again. They are a substitute for store bought organic (expensive) tortilla chips. They are not crispy crunchy like fried, but they are fantastic. They last 3 days, so we used them with our home canned salsa, and of course delicious by themselves. I think they would be fabulous with hummus.
Both einkorn recipes can be found online.
Carpet shampooing resumed too. Oh I cannot wait for the day to rip up carpet. I got about 40% of the bedroom done, but it'll take lifting and moving to get the rest done. Not sure I have Hubby on board either. I need him to look at my shampooer too. I'm not sure it's working properly. I have done what I can, but I'll need him to work on it I think.
