Have A Nice Day!

I've become a
casualty of my boy’s sticker habit! 

What's Cookin' In The Kitchen???

Mom likes to cook and when she does it is usually making dinner verses dessert.  There are not a lot of human sweets in our household or snacking between meals.  Tonight, much to my dismay because it contains chocolate, she decided to try a new brownie recipe.  Here is the conversation that followed in our kitchen.       

 

Dad: “What you making?” 

Mom: “A treat.” 

(long pause)

Dad: “A dog treat or a human treat?”

Mom: “Human.”

Dad: “Oh good!”

Mom: “What does it say about our household that you even had to ask that question?”

Chef Gumbo’s Recipe Review – Howlin’ Hula Cookies

Chef Gumbo

It’s summer so you know what that means…luau!!!  We made ours a festive event by sporting some leis, chillin’ by the pool and enjoying some delicious Howlin’ Hula Cookies Mom made from her Three Dog Bakery Cookbook. 

I give it 3 out of 4 paws.  Tugg gave it 4 out of 4 paws.

Enjoying our Howlin' Hula Cookies poolside

It was a mixture of pineapple, honey & vanilla goodness.  If you’d like to make these tasty treats yourself, the recipe can be found online at http://www.food.com/recipe/howlin-hula-cookies-115021.

“Bone” appetite!

Bad Gumbo...Bad Dog!!!

Yes, I'm a bad, bad dog.  It's been 7 months since my last post.  I've let my all of 2 fans down.  I will try to do better but cut me a little slack, it's hard to type with no thumbs! 

Here are some highlights since my last post. 

Christmas was great!  Here is a picture of Tugg & I with Santa.

And yes, we got everything we asked for.  Here we are with My Boy checking out our stocking loot! 

Our favorite gift were new Kongs. 

In January we enjoyed watching the annual Puppy Bowl - the canine's answer to the Super Bowl.  But the best part of watching the game is game food grub! 

My newest news is our summer haircuts.  Tugg & I both got much shorter hairdos as you can see from these pics where we're enjoying a peanut butter-carob treat. 

I promise to submit a post again soon.  Chef Gumbo has plans to head back to the kitchen to whip up another delicious treat. 

Until then...

Love & licks,
Gumbo
