YouTube Mania!?
Yes, my family posted a video that was done ages ago of me creating treats for Katie. This was way before I even started the business officially. Now it seems so long ago because the treats are made differently now. That was me making an experimental treat for Katie at the time that was made of cheese and liver.
Check it out on YouTube as Katietreat or here:

About last night...
I baked a lot. I'm tired. WAH WAH...such a Debbie Downer type of statement but truthfully I am tired. I'm the kind of tired that you get after doing something really fun like biking a long and winding road, hanging out all day with a good friend or shopping in one of those mega outlet centers. Impossibly happily sore and tired. BUT, I am absolutely delighted to announce that Banana Bliss, Granny's Apple Pie and my mini chicken snaps were all perfect. Just wonderfully perfect. I slept well.
I gave in...
Oh wow. I decided finally that I have been a little silly. I decided to listen to my customers and I made a cake that was decorated with a delightfully adorable Robin's Egg blue writing on it. It was absolutely adorable. This cake, a mini, made for a cute little pomeranian's birthday, had "Happy Birthday Chorong 2! on it. In blue. I know, my cakes are all natural but I used just a touch of food coloring and the frosting was still my delicious creamy creamy cheese, cinnamon, vanilla and honey indubitably delicious frosting. It was really cute.
and I cheated one more time...
I made the cake slightly bigger than promised and I hope that it is alright that I made this cake bigger than the customer had asked but I simply could not write very much on the tiny cake, so this cake being slightly, well...1 inch wider than the other cake was able to have the whole shabang written on it. Happy Birthday Chorong, enjoy your cake and your second year of life!
Katie had a little something too...
Yes, I did save some cake from the shaping for Katie. She also ate the rest of the frosting too. As for the rest of the blue frosting? Katie ate that too...she had a little blue tongue for a while and I wish I took a photo of it but alas...no.
Broadway Barks is this weekend so don't forget to go!

Apples
I changed my mind. I tried to use Macintosh in the apple treats and my treats resisted. The result was a lovely tray of soft treats but not quite the typical fare. I have to stick with Granny Smith apples because of a lower water content. I now know that the softer apples have more water and thus I need to adjust the baking time as well as the additional wet ingredients in my recipes. Too complicated. I will stick with the recipe next time.
4th of July
Happy stars and stripes, it's the new treat of the month time! Treat of the Month for July is Say Cheese Mini Stars. It's our featured treat because July is a patriotic star spangled month and the little stars are made with all natural, American Cheddar Cheese and apples. What better treat could there be?
Little men
My Everything Nice men are looking good these days. I've been noticing more people are getting them. It's a great little spicy treat. It's just got enough spice for Katie to stop and eat it, smell it, eat it, smell it, then eat the rest. She really likes it. Though, the Say Cheese stars recently had her following me everywhere. I have only tripped over her 3 times in the past two days so it's not that bad...well, yes it is! She's either getting shorter or more stealth. I can't hear her little paw nails clicking on the wood floor anymore so I think she is trying to be a little sneakier.
Do I smell bacon?
Yeah, I gotta go...my breakfast is ready!
BROADWAY BARKS!

I absolutely must remind everyone that Broadway Barks is a great cause to help promote adoption of shelter animals. It was a really great success last year as in previous years and I encourage anyone who is looking for a pet to go and check it out. You can find some fabulous dogs and lots of information about animal adoption there.
I will be having a promotion of sorts, for every bag of Say Cheese Stars sold this month, I will donate an equal amount of treats to a shelter in addition to my normal donations.
I wish I could give more sometimes.
