Banana, Peanut Butter Oatmeal cookies
INGREDIENTS
2 cups Oatmeal (soaked)
1/2” inch Water cover above oats
1 cup Banana
1/2 cup Peanut butter
2 cups All Purpose Flour
1 Tablespoon Olive oil
DIRECTIONS
Place 2 cups oatmeal in container and cover 1/2 inch water over the top. Leave that set until almost all the water has been absorbed. About 1.5 hour
Heat oven to 350’ degree F. Grease 1” x 15”x 21” cookie sheet with the olive oil
Place the banana, peanut butter and oatmeal.
Stir / Cream the ingredients together. Make sure all the bananas are mixed in good. You might want to mix the bananas prior to adding to the mix.
After getting those ingredients mixed time to add the flour.
Place the dough onto the cookie sheet and smooth out to thin layer.
Place in oven on center rack for 30 minutes. take out of oven. The sides should be pulled away from pan. Get the pizza cutter and cut your squares. Turn oven off and put the pan back into the oven and let bake until cool. You can make the size of the cookie fit your dog. I have 4 dogs in various sizes. From 85 to 15 pounds. So my cookies are various sizes.
Cut your squares and put them back into the oven until completely cool.
Remove from oven after completely cool. Put into an airtight container and refrigerator. I have 4 dogs and this last 3 weeks. You can also freeze them and just take out what you need.
Your dogs will love them until the last cookie…
You can adjust this recipe to your dogs taste or yours. I ate one and i couldn’t taste the peanut butter. I did a second recipe with 1 1/2 cups of peanut butter. I can taste the peanut butter and my dogs could really smell their treats baking and waited by the kitchen door.
Enjoy !!!
It usually takes 21 days for a chicken egg to fully incubate.
A day is the full 24 hours after you put the egg in the incubator
I tend to see external pipping (when the chick starts to break the egg) on day 19, but it can take up to 28 days in some cases.
It’s important to heat up the incubator for 24 hours before you put eggs in to ensure the temperature is correct and stays steady.
Choosing eggs to incubate. Make sure they are fresh and fertile. You have to have a rooster to fertilize the eggs. If you don’t have a rooster you might be able to finds some through your local newspaper or Farm Supply center.
Maintain a temperature between 100°-102° with a still air incubator and 99-99.5 with a forced air incubator.
Keep your humidity between 40-50% days 1-18, then increase to 50%-60% on days 18-21.
Turn your eggs at least 3 times a day from days 1-18, then don’t turn them at all on days 18-21.

Usually you replace your dentures every 3 to 5 years. If you don’t donate them at your dentist office they are probably laying around collecting dust at your house. Put them to good use.
The Japan Denture Recycling Association, is a nonprofit organization since December 2006. JDRA recycles the metal from used dentures and donates the money to UNICEF to support underprivileged children in the world.
All you have to do is sanitize the dentures. You can do so by boiling some water and placing the dentures in a glass bowl and pour water over the dentures. Let the dentures soak until water is cool. Remove dentures, dry off, wrap in plastic wrap and place in envelope or small box and mail them off.
There are several worthy causes to donate to for dental repair. Thank you for taking the time to read. Please share the story with others so we can spread the word.

If you are one of the few that come home to one of the burnt out neighborhoods make sure you exercise caution while out in the elements.
Your home and residing in the neighborhood: Set up an area that you can seal off. If you have a separate hall way that you can close off with plastic or a separate entry, perhaps through the side garage door(not a big one)with door to house. Handy to change contaminated clothes.
Even though your area may not have flames crawling up your street or that you can actually see, remember embers and ash can float through the air. It will glide until it gets caught on a branch or something to cling onto.
Open your pores with warm water and use a good scrubby or washcloth with loads of soap. Soap up really good. Use cold water after to wash the soap off and close your pores.
Keep all of your smoke clothes in a plastic bag in your sealed area until you wash them. You don’t want to spread the smell or contaminate any other area.
If you are in close vicinity of the devastated areas: Do Not run any fans or air conditioning that has a connetion to outdoors. Close all doors, windows and vents. Close blinds and curtains to keep sun out and temperatures down in the house.

You would think that in 2017 we would have figured out a way to ensure our senior citizens safe long-term care.
Many of us find that as our parents age, they’re more likely to need assistance to carry out everyday activities. If that is your role in your parents life, you will have to be diligent and make sure their needs are being met.
I know the first thought is to move them in with you. But you must really think carefully about this choice.
How do we keep them safe and living in their own homes. Or when and how do you trust a facility to give care to your family member?
I know our lives have become very busy between work and children. But they need you now more than ever.

The 86 Most Delish Homemade Cookies
A cookie a day keeps the sadness away. By Sienna Fantozzi
Nov 22, 2016
Chef Sherrie Angel “Slam Dunks” Thanksgiving this year with her Pumpkin Dinner Rolls. Creamy smooth texture that melts in your mouth. Bite after bite you can taste every spice layered across your pallet correctly.
Let’s not forget about the star of the day. Juicy seasoned to perfection turkey with chicken sausage gravy & all the sides to complete the meal.
I made my dough in the bread maker, but i have added instructions for making it by hand.
Risen twice and then baked to perfection. But we will give the directions for old school mixing in a bowl.
INGREDIENTS
DIRECTIONS
Place milk , 1 teaspoon honey and whisk together. Sprinkle yeast on top, set to the side for 5 minutes.
In a large bowl combine and mix together the remaining ingredients. Add the milk mixture and start mixing. Dough will be wet. If the dough is extremely wet you can add some flour, but the dough should remain sticky. Don’t add to much flour at once, a little at a time until you can handle to dough.
After you have the dough mixed together remove from the bowl to a floured surface so you can knead the dough. Knead for 15 minutes.
Lightly butter a bowl and place the dough inside and cover with Saran Wrap. Allow the dough to rise. It should be doubled in size. About 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
Remove dough from bowl. You can use a pastry mat / board, greased surface or parchment paper to use for your work area.
Divide the dough into 4 pieces so it’s easier to handle. Cut the dough into 24 pieces. Grease or butter your hands and roll the dough inward into balls. Place the pieces into a greased pan or pans. Depending on what you have handy.
Cover pans with a kitchen towel and allow the rolls to rise to double or triple the size. About 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
About 30 minutes before the rolls are finished rising turn the oven on to 375 degrees F.
Bake the rolls for 25 – 30 minutes or until golden.
Remove from the oven. Brush the tops of rolls with butter. Let the rolls cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Remove rolls and place on wire rack. These rolls can be served warm or at room temperature.
If needed you can make these a day ahead, so you can concentrate on all the other dinner items.

You can eat more and still lose weight. It’s that easy!
It seems natural: You want to, so you do a diet slash-and-burn, eating less and thinking about food more. The usual result also seems pretty natural: You feel denied, so you give up. Repeat as diet fads come and go. Enough already!
Why not eat more for weight loss and weight maintenance, instead of less? If your schedule does not allow you to exercise, it’s even more important to change your intake values. If your body does not recognize the food as a value, it turns it into FAT… Read through all the articles and see if it makes sense to you. Start to change the inside of you. Read the labels. This will be the most vital part about living healthy. Juicing is an excellent way to intake healthy vitamins and minerals.

Cook up some noodles and have Spaghetti… Use up the left over sloppy Joe mix.
It’s sweet and tangy pairs great with pasta.
We are using spices and veggies instead of ketchup to flavor our yummy kid friendly and adult pleasing yummy homemade sloppy joes. No preservatives.
Add 1/4 of each green, red and yellow peppers 🫑 cut up into your choice of size and 1 onion. If your making this for kid’s you may want to dice the peppers and onion’s into very small pieces. I like 1” inch piece’s for adults. You can also purée in the blender for a smoother texture.
While the meat 🥩 is cooking cut up your veggies 🥗 and onions 🧅 .. Cook your meat 🥩 down and drain the grease.
Add your onion 🧅 and 🫑 peppers. Add 1 teaspoon salt.
Add 2 Teaspoons of garlic. I use 2 of the frozen 5 gram cubes. ( 1 Teaspoon each cube ). Continue cooking
Cook down until soft and onion’s are translucent.
Adding water 1/2 cup at a time. Mix it up until all the water is gone.
Simmer for 45 minutes
You can adjust the serving size by increasing all the ingredients. This makes approximately 6 to 8 sandwiches.
I toasted some fresh baked garlic pepper Jack cheese bread. It paired wonderfully. So buns for the kids and add cheese or a different bread for the adults.
Enjoy
Your thinking about growing your own? Prescription in a natural plant.
Here are a few steps you can take to get started.
Before you start let’s get everything you’ll need to set up for success.
Starting your seeds. You’ll need 1 paper towel and a plastic bag or a plate. Good water is necessary for a healthy start.
Place the paper towel in the bowl, plate or plastic bag. Place your seed or seeds in the center. If more than one seed make sure to give plenty of space between the seeds. Gently pour the water over the paper towel and place in a dark place. Check every day. Should only take a couple of days till a little white root appears. Wait until it’s about 1/2 inch long.
After the seed germinates wait until it is 1/2” long. Make a hole about 1 inch deep. A pencil eraser is a measuring tool. Place the root down and the seed cap. Lightly place some fluffy dirt on top and water. Set under the lights about 1” inch above seedling. Don’t turn on the lights until the 2 green leaves appear. Then 18 to 20 hours of light per day.

5 Ayurvedic Tips for Thriving During the Holidays
“Did you know” Lard, Manteca or Tallow is actually healthy for you. That’s right.
Up until 1990 when the vegan movement took place those tasty McD’s french fries were fried in tallow. Tallow is a rendered form of beef or mutton fat, primarily made up of triglycerides. It is solid at room temperature. Lard / Manteca is rendered from pork.
Lard / Tallow has always been an important cooking and baking staple in cultures where pork / beef is an important dietary item, with pig / cow fat often being as valuable a product as the meat.
Lard is a semi-solid white fat product obtained by rendering the fatty tissue of the pig. It is distinguished from tallow, a similar product derived from fat of cattle or sheep.
Tallow and Lard can be rendered by steaming, boiling, or dry heat. The culinary qualities of lard vary somewhat depending on the origin and processing method; if properly rendered, it may be nearly odorless and tasteless. It has a high saturated fatty acid content and no trans fat. At retail, refined lard is usually sold as paper-wrapped blocks.
Many cuisines use lard as a cooking fat or shortening, or as a spread in the same ways as butter. It is an ingredient in various savory dishes such as sausages, pâtés, and fillings. As a replacement for butter, it provides flakiness to pastry. In western cuisine, it has ceded its popularity to vegetable oils, but many cooks and bakers still favor it over other fats for certain uses.

Working with a mixer or by hand with a whisk and spoon, whip the tallow until very creamy. Start adding dry ingredients and mix at low speed until the dough takes on a sandy appearance. Slowly add the warm water with the mixer running, and continue to mix until the dough comes together into a smooth ball. If using spoon make sure to mix well
Wrap the bowl tightly in plastic, and allow to rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
Heat a heavy cast iron or non-stick skillet over low heat. Divide the dough into 10 portions, rolling each into a smooth ball. Working on a lightly floured surface. Using a rolling pin, press each portion to an approximately 4″ circle. Cook on each side for approximately 4 to 5 minutes, or until toasted to a medium golden tone.
You can keep them warm in a tortilla warmer or a clean kitchen towel.
If a less flaky tortilla is desired, add more water to the dough, approximately one or two tablespoons, or enough to make the dough just barely stick to a clean finger. The remainder of the recipe would be worked the same.

Chocolate: Dark vs Milk
Dark chocolate has an extra layer of goodness. You ask what could be good about chocolate candy, besides that it’s yummy. I’m about to tell you all about the great powers of chocolate.
Feeling a little sluggish? Try having 25g of dark chocolate 72%. Dark chocolate contains just enough caffeine for a little afternoon burst of energy.
Caffeine is a compound naturally found in commonly consumed items such as coffee, tea, and chocolate. An average cup of coffee (8 fl oz) contains about 95 mg and the same amount of tea contains about 26 mg. Compared to these two sources chocolate has very little caffeine. The caffeine content of chocolate is dependent on the amount of cacao in the product. Dark chocolate contains about 20 mg of caffeine per ounce, milk chocolate contains about 6 mg per ounce, and white chocolate contains no caffeine. However, caffeine content will vary and can be dependent on the cocoa bean type and origin.
