Silly Tillie

5x6"
pastel on sanded paper
This really captures her personality.
Bostons always look good in red.

This is my 3 year old Boston Terrier, Tillie.
She is very energetic, good natured and loves to eat.
This recipe is for one of her favorite homemade treats.

Ingredients
2 cups whole wheat flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 cup unsalted natural peanut butter
1 cup skim milk
Directions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Grease cookie sheets. Stir together the flour and baking powder
Set aside.
In a medium bowl, mix together the peanut butter & milk.
Stir in the flour mixture until well blended. Turn out dough onto
a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth. Roll out to
1/4 inch thickness and cut into shapes using cookie cutters.
Place 2 inches apart onto the prepared cookie sheets.

Bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until lightly brown.
Remove from cookie sheets to cool on wire racks.

Suga Dawg

5x7"
Mixed media on paper
This is a painting of my dog Sugar.
My daughter likes to dress her up occasionally.
She doesn't seem to mind.
The painting was made with acrylic tube paints,
watercolor, ink and acrylic "tulip" paint.
