Let's talk.

Somebody had a birthday last week.

Her name is Mylie.

And she is the cutest 8 year old you'll ever meet.

At least, the cutest 8 year old on 4 legs you'll ever meet.

My cute blog friend April, blogged about some homemade dog treats she made for Mylie's blog-dog crush, Hewitt.

It doesn't get much easier than the recipe she used!

So, birthday girl Mylie was in for quite a treat.

Literally.

1/2 c. rolled oats

1/2 c. unsweetened applesauce

1/2 c. whole wheat flour

2 tbsp natural peanut butter. 
(Mix, Roll, Cut, Bake on greased cookie sheet 400* 15-20 min)

I headed to the store, and stocked up on the purest form of these ingredients that I could.

I've never made anything for Mylie myself, so I wanted to take every precaution possible.

Just in case.

I want another 8 years with her.

See the labels?

Super simple ingredients.

Mylie is used to me being in the kitchen baking.

I have a galley kitchen, so she always plops herself right there at the doorway.

She had no idea what she was about to experience.

I mixed.

And stirred.

And rolled.

And cut.

And while I rolled and cut some more, I let Mylie do something all birthday girls should get to do.

Lick the bowl.

I think she wasn't so sure about it at first.
Like, is this a trick?

 And then she went to town.

And gave me that look.

The "don't you dare touch this bowl" look.

And the next look was more like "is that it!?"

No Smiles, that isn't quite it.

So we baked for about 20 min. 

(April's recipe calls for 15, but she suggests a few extra to crisp up the treats, we could have even baked a few more)

And how cute are they?

The heart shaped treats turned out the best.

 And then I made her wait VERY, VERY patiently while we documented for the blog.

I mean, look at that expression.

And then it was go time.

I think it's pretty obvious she loved them.

I mean, she's a treats girl, for sure.

Perhaps even a connoisseur 

Ever since the very first day.

Happy Birthday Miss Mylie, I love you.
