Happy Recipe Posting of the Day

For Easter:
Cadbury Creme Egg Muffins

Yes, that's right, a cadbury creme egg embedded inside a vanilla muffin....it's calling your name.Eowyn

Also, a lazy hamantaschen recipe

Happy Dog Moment of the Day: Eowyn joyously outracing the other golden retriever at the dog run.

Sad-puzzling moment of the day: How exactly does someone lose a 125-lb Newfie? I mean, I'm sorry for the owners and I hope they find their dog soon, but really, it's not like they run very fast, or you can just steal one and tuck it in a handbag. And, um, not exactly inconspicuous.

Oh, they've played that game for months. It's not about finding a way to play with Eowyn for Mac (currently the favorite baby-dog game is "London Bridge"); it's his fascination with doors and a sense of agency. The only good current solution is blocking access to the crate which is obviously problematic.

On the plus side, he has learned both how to pour kibble from the big bag into her bowl and how to offer her food - palm out, slightly below her jaw. No sense of "doggie treats are a sometime food," though.

It's lucky Eowyn is energetic enough to burn off whatever extra Mac gives her! Our dogs (ok really only the older one) would plump up like a balloon if Mac were around to practice his "food sharing".

Yeah. Not so much, as it turns out....my babysitter's 5-year-old daughter appears to have fed her an excess of biscuits today and well, there was mess from every end imaginable about half an hour ago. :(
