Home made dog treats

I guess I’m kind of pet-obsessed lately. Actually, let's be real, I’ve always been pet-obsessed. I’ve had 157 pets throughout my life. I can’t say that I’ve loved them all equally, I actually hated most of them, but they do each represent a very specific time (or breakup), so for that I am grateful to them all. Pets are like boyfriends, if boyfriends couldn’t speak to you ever. 


Lately I have had a deep connection to a wild beast named patches. Seriously this dog is special. Whenever I take him anywhere middle aged woman who lack sex appeal always tell me what a great personality he has. I recently took him to the groomers and the lady? (unclear, I saw the trans Casper cheated on jlo with and now I'm questioning everyone's gender) who was cutting his hair she? (Still unclear) Was going through some deep shit and really hated her life so she scolded at patch for her daddy issues and also because he kept trying to bite her. After she got done I promised patch I would make it up to him so I came up with this dog treat found via Pinterest.. 


1/2 cup creamy peanut butter (measuring peanut butter seems messy af so I just took a big ass scoop)

1 tablespoon honey
(Same goes for honey)

1 large egg

1/2 cup water

1 carrot, shredded (I use carrots for my smoothies so I wasn't willing to sacrifice one for my dog)

2-3 pieces cooked bacon, chopped

1 cup oat flour or 1 1/2 cups rolled oats, processed until floury


1 cup all-purpose or whole wheat flour (I don't own whole weat flower because I'm not a jerk-off. I used regular and my dog survived) 
 
DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 350°F. In a medium bowl, combine peanut butter, honey, egg, water, carrot and bacon and stir until well blended. Add both flours to wet mixture to form dough. 

Then I rolled the dough into a ball baked it for 20-25 mins waited for it to cool down and watched my dogs devour them. I've never felt more satisfied with my cooking skills ever before.


Also If you'd like the recipe in a more professional manner here's the link to what I used  to make them..

Feng shui

This morning, I was rudely awakened in the middle of my REM cycle (according to my iPhone sleep tracker app) things have been so crazy lately, that not even taking in, a few deep cleansing yoga breaths, my yoga instructor suggested for me to do when Life calls for me to be in such dark places could ease dark situations like waking up early, or going to work, or the worst of them all, being interrupted by a news broadcast while I'm trying to watch Wendy Williams. When Everything is going so wrong it's good to know that there's a guy like ken lauher out there, Ken is real deep into feng shui, he even has a YouTube channel dedicated to it ..

Before feng shui kens life was very depressing. He hated his job. He was single as fuck And also got robbed at gunpoint for $7. I know it's kind of hilarious but I doubt that he saw it that way. 

Now I'm not about to go out and buy a whole new decor for my room so I incorporated earthy shit I already had and am hoping for good vibes so dramatic days like this don't ever occur again.
Candles.

No one fucking loves candles as much as I fucking love candles, Ken says that candles invoke the energy of purification and inspiration so let's just go with that, even though the real reason I have them out, is because nothing is better then anything and everything from bath and body works, NOTHING.

Books

Ken claims the bed room is to sleep and make love, thus too many books simply bring down that energy and cause you to be restless and single forever. But hellooo some books written by Lauren Conrad and Rachel Zoe were just born to be seen out in the open


Unclear rock.

I think I may have stolen this crystal (rock) on accident at some place in time, or maybe my dog gifted it to me while we were on a hike somewhere or maybe I did pay full price for it after seeing spencer pratts crystal collection on celebrity wife swap,  I'm not sure about any of that. I can only hope that this makes up for me denying kens book rule.
