I've tried a lot of ho-hum recipes lately that weren't worth mentioning in this blog (plus, Katie told me that I shouldn't put links to recipes that weren't any good!) I tried a meatball recipe that was pretty good but Mom's recipe definitely trumps it. However, I tried one today that is worth mentioning: Flaky Mushroom and Gruyère Tarts.

EJ said that he distracted the other pups with some hooves and showed Holly her bone and she grabbed the whole thing and ran into the room and hid under the chair and was guarding it (he said he got it on video so hopefully I'll get it and post it soon!)
