she is a big though girl that can take on anything just dont mention balloons
get yourself a dog that not only helps out in the kitchen but will also do the gardening for you
In addition, for the low, low price of some cheese, she will also dig you a big hole you didn’t ask for
She’s not very good. She keeps barking for the peanut butter and she’s gonna get the food health and safety department onto us with the way she keeps licking the work bench.
Lucky she’s cute.

You did not ask but this is my pfeffenusse recipe if ya ever need. I’ve tried many and it’s the best I’ve found 👇

Ingredients
1 ¼ cup flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
3-4 teaspoons gingerbread spice (from gewurzhaus)
¼ teaspoon white pepper
¼ cup almond meal
½ cup brown sugar
1/3 cup honey
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons heave cream
1 large egg
2½ cups powdered sugar
3-4 tablespoons hot water
Method Step 1.
In a small bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, salt, gingerbread spice, white pepper and almond meal. Set aside.
Step 2. Combine the brown sugar, honey, butter and cream in a medium saucepan and heat, stirring frequently, until melted and the sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and let sit for 5 minutes. Stir in the flour mixture. Once incorporated stir in the egg until thoroughly combined. The dough will have a nice glossy sheen. It will be very sticky.
Step 3. Turn the mixture out onto some plastic wrap and wrap the dough tightly. Refrigerate overnight or for up to two days.
Step 4. Preheat the oven to 350˚C. Remove the dough from the plastic wrap and immediately roll it into two strands, each about 2cm thick. Slice the rolls into 3cm rounds and roll each into a ball. Work quickly while the dough is still chilled.
Step 5. Place the cookie balls on a lined baking tray and bake for about 15 minutes or until golden brown. Remove and let them cool completely.
Step 6. To make glaze, combine the powdered sugar and water until smooth. Less water will result in a thicker & whiter glaze. Dip each cookie in the glaze, letting the excess drip off, and place them on a wire rack and let them sit until the glaze is fully hardened.
And my pfeffernusse for reference
Ok our journal has been published which means I am officially done for the year now.
Mabel and I just baked some dog biscuits for her
And I’m gonna spend the rest of the day cleaning and reading ✌️
Mabel had her first groom today and they just sent me a Christmas photo of her. Look at her happy lil tongue 🥹
In other news: I’m mad at how much work I have to do despite making it very clear to the universe that I was not planning on working this month.
It’s about time. She’s 9 months behind on rent (never paid a cent, actually) and keeps eating us out of house and home
Great weather today, so Mabel decided to get cracking on some of those summer jobs of hers
The good news is that Mabel eats anything and everything, even if we don't want her to.
Possum poo is her personal fave
Thank you! The weather was atrocious but enough wine fixes all problems.
