If I could pass out treats one of these bags would be just for you!
The World According to Bella
Yesterday I scored big at the dog park. Leo was passing out Halloween bags. Lucky me got this bag of doggie treats. My boot camp has finally ended and I am celebrating :) A week of added exercise has left me sore and stiff. Each night I seem to be going to bed earlier and earlier.
Today I got weighed. Mr. C complimented me on my weight loss. He declared I am now in good shape. I will be able to keep up with the pack at the park. My restricted diet has been lifted, Now I can have some of the treats from my Halloween bag.
Mr. C sure has a lot of instructions for my new dog sitter. I just hope he and Mrs.S don't forget to pick me up. Wish me luck.
Love, Bella

Mummy Dogs
This recipe is from BHG
Using one package of refrigerated bread sticks stretch each dough strip to 12 inches and wrap around a jumbo frank or polish sausage. Use capers or olives for eyes. Bake at 375 till browned about 15 minutes.
Optional idea: brushing dough with melted butter and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Serve with mustard and ketchup.
I made Mummy Dogs for my grandkids for an early Halloween dinner before trick-or-treating. I used non-cured hot dogs (Oscar Mayer - no nitrates),crescent roll dough and American cheese slices cut into strips. Spread dough out into rectangles and then cut into strips. Layer a cheese strip and a dough strip together and wrap around the hot dog. It took about 5 layered strips to do the job. Then bake as above. The kids had fun assembling their own. I like the idea of using olive pieces as eyes. My recipe called for mustard, and it got runny. They love buttered pasta, so I put green food color in the water while boiling the noodles and served them "Gopher Guts." Delightful! They also made the chocolate witches hats, but we used fudge-covered Oreos instead of Fudge Stripes. The Oreos are smaller and seemed more in proportion with the Hershey kisses I used. Do you know if there is a larger Hershey kiss available? The ones in the photo seem larger than the kisses I could find.
