BARKS FROM BELLA Meet My Valentine’s Sweetie
HAVE A LAUGH!
A while ago, my grandma and grandpa moved to what Dad calls an “assisted living facility.” Everyone was sad at first, but then things turned around when I found my new sweetie! It happened at Grandma and Grandpa’s old house. I was helping Dad clean the house so that Grandma and Grandpa could sell it. He was digging around in boxes, and I did my part by sniffing under the sofa and pulling out everything I could find. That’s when
INGREDIENTS
I discovered something small, fuzzy, and yellow — a toy! It smelled just like
• • •
2 eggs
• •
1/2 cup dried cranberries 3–4 tbsp coconut flour
1 1/2 cups almond flour
Grandma and Grandpa’s cat, Sadie.
1 tbsp coconut oil
Sadie was an old lady when I met her, and I still miss her not being around. I fell in love with the toy right away. It looks like a ducky, but it’s about the same size as a mole. It even squeaks! I knew I could use it to practice my mole hunting. I carried the toy over to Dad and dropped it at his feet. Then I gave him my best puppy eyes and whined, “Can I keep it? Oh, Dad, can I keep it, please?! I’ll be the best mole hunter in the whole neighborhood!”
DIRECTIONS
WE WANT YOU TO THINK OF US AS YOUR LAW FIRM. If you have a legal matter that needs attention, let us know. If we can’t handle the matter, we will refer you to a firm that can. Please feel free to refer us to your friends and family for their legal needs. We welcome the opportunity to help. 6. Roll out dough and cut treats using bite-size cookie cutters. Tip: Sprinkle a little coconut flour on top of your dough to keep it from sticking to the cookie cutters. 7. On a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper, place your treats. Bake for 15–18 minutes or until crisp. Let cool before giving to your pooch! 1. Preheat oven to 325 F. 2. In a small bowl, beat eggs and set aside. 3. In a separate bowl, combine almond flour, coconut oil, and dried cranberries. 4. Once combined, pour in eggs and mix with your hands. (The dough will be very wet.) 5. Add coconut flour 1 tbsp at a time; mix well after each addition. You want to achieve a consistency that is easy to roll, is not super sticky, and easily forms a ball.
He said yes! It wasn’t even hard to convince him!
Since I brought my sweetie home, I’ve been practicing my mole hunting nonstop. I can toss the ducky around myself, but it’s even better when Mom and Dad throw it for me. Then, I can pretend that it’s running away, chase it down, and kill it like a real mole! It’s hard to hunt moles in the winter because the ground is hard, and they like to stay hidden. But thanks to my sweetie, I’ll be ready when the weather is nice again. Mom and Dad are going to be so happy! They love it when I get rid of the moles for them, and now I’ll be faster than ever.
I hope you have someone (or something) you love as much as I love my ducky. Happy mole-hunting!
