I’m dog-sitting this week for my parents. Well, for my mom mostly, since it’s her little Maltipoo. Her name is Kiwi (the dog, not my mom) and she is a beady-eyed, fluffy doll. My dog, Jade, is not a big fan of Kiwi. Jade gets jealous very, very easily, so I have to distribute treats equally or in Jade’s favor at all times or else she mopes. I helped mom find and buy Kiwi, and now Kiwi is her baby. She’s so sweet that it’s hard not to spoil her, but Jade keeps a watchful eye! I love dogs, in case I forgot to mention that.

Daisy’s Fudgy Brownies
15 years ago today, my dog Daisy was born. I had been begging for my own dog for 2 years. We always had a dog around, and I was usually following it everywhere, but I wanted one all for myself. I understand now why my parents didn’t get a puppy for an 8-year-old (we had two other dogs, anyways), but at the time it was the hardest struggle I faced. 🙂
I finally got my puppy, and played with her every single day. I loved her instantly. She had a fierce, independent spirit and never cared to cuddle, but she loved me back. She was my constant companion and best friend. As she grew older, she was more apt to lick me and sit in my lap. Every time I saw her, she howled in excitement and I rubbed her face, scratched her back, and told her how much I loved her.

Reese’s Brownies
My sister, Amy, bought me a bunch of Easter candy. I immediately planned on using it for baking some treats, but it took awhile to get around to. Michael loved these brownies the first time I made them, and I thought that the addition of chopped Reese’s peanut butter eggs would make them even better. It worked! The slight salty flavor of Reese’s went perfectly with the thick, sweet brownies. You could also just chop up some Reese’s cups and get the same results!
