Blackstrap Molasses

 Blackstrap Molasses is full of nutritional benefits and is quite good for you. 

I am sure there are a multitude of ways to consume blackstrap molasses but I find good ole molasses oatmeal cookies to be the only way to ensure you enjoy that nutritional boost.

I mean you could just eat a spoonful of blackstrap molasses but....why?

Chewy warm oatmeal cookies from the oven are the way to go!

In fact they are so good, I consider them breakfast.

Cheers to the absolutely most nutritionally awesome 

and obviously healthy way to start a day!

Mmmmmmm

Can I Have a Bite?

Do you ever feel like your Doodle Doggie is trying to help you stick to a healthy diet? There is nothing like a Doodle Doggie support team cheering you on to success!  OR perhaps your furry shadow is just watching every bite you take in the hopes that you will share! 

Is that another sea salt caramel candy?

That sure does look like caramel and 

that sure does smell like caramel candy

Can I Have a Bite??????

Everyone loves sharing!

Happy 6 Months

 My Silver Bengal kitten Mulan is 6 months old today! We thought we would celebrate by going on a little outdoor outing.

Mulan is finally big enough for her harness

Time to explore

Ernie says, leaf chasing is always a good place to start!

Mulan agrees

Merlin can't wait to show Mulan all the fun things they can do together

"Maybe later Merlin....I have a blog to write"

A PURRfect half-birthday!

Midweek Hello!

Chase a few leaves and enjoy all that fresh air!

This first week of March sure feels AWESOME!

Older Doggie Spotlight

 Yesteryear Acres Doodle Puppies are just so adorable and we love sharing their pictures with you every week.  Not only are our puppies adorable but our older doggies are so adorable too!  Everyone loved seeing our sweet 13 year old McGyver last week so I thought why not celebrate our senior doggies too!! They are just the best!  

Older Doggie Spotlight this week is Olive!!!

Olive will soon be celebrating her 11th birthday.  She is as active today as ever!  She loves playing fetch and hanging out with her favorite human, Austin.  Olive spends every day with tail wagging happiness.

Please share your favorite older Doodle Doggie pictures!!!!!

We would love to see them!

So Long Snow

 With all the rain the past few days our Winter Wonderland has turned to "Spring is Around the Corner"

Hey where did all the snow go?

I don't know but this is fun!

Looks like it is time to make a Springtime movie with Austin!

Maybe we should call the movie, "So Long Snow"

Ready for our close up

This will be the best movie yet!

All we have to do is follow the camera

That was easy!

That's a wrap!

Happy Monday!

Rain and Taxes - Just Go Together

 Today's dreary all day rain was definitely a signal that it was time.  Time to start working on taxes.  Business taxes are due in 2 weeks so putting off the inevitable was no longer possible.  And so with the rain falling, I pulled out my calculator, pens, highlighters, computer, receipts and more receipts and dug in. Sigh.  Rainy day and taxes - they just go together.

Thank you for the moral support Ernie. 

You know just how I feel!

Another Quilt Done! Y Acres Studio

This quilt was huge!

So much work went into creating this King Size Quilt

Ready to be picked up this week!

Time to cut more batting

and start loading another quilt for the Longarm!

Happy Saturday from Y Acres Studio!
