Hi, Everybody!
I was feelin' a little artsy-fartsy today, so I played with this picture of Carly and me with Dad for you to look at. We were just hangin' out on the porch and enjoyin' a little summer breeze.
It's been hot around this joint lately, so Mom pulled out a treat recipe she's gonna make for us this week. I don't have to tell you we're all lookin' forward to it! I thought I'd share the particulars with you, so here goes...
CORGI BUTTS DOGGIE ICE CREAM
recipe found on CorgiButts blog (link below)
Yield: 1 ice cube tray of ice cream
Ingredients
16 oz. plain yogurt
1 banana
2 tablespoons peanut butter
a handful of frozen or fresh blueberries (optional)
Mash the first three ingredients together until smooth and then stir in the blueberries.
Scoop mixture into ice cube trays and freeze. Microwave a few second before serving,
or let sit out to soften a bit if you don't have a microwave. You can also add honey, if desired.

Mom said she thinks this might even be a tasty people treat, but Bella, Carly and I are hopin' it's just for us. I mean, we don't eat their ice cream. Seems only fair that these should be for dogs only!
Just to add a little excitement around here, Miss Carly Pants has come in heat. She won't be bred this time, so there's that, but even so. Her comin' in makes for more than a little inconvenience for a house dog. I have no interest in her (at least not yet), and Mom and Dad are hopin' it stays that way. Mom said it's the last thing they need - me chasin' after her, even though I can't "do any damage". Whatever that means.
My only interest right now is these ice cream treats, so I hope Mom gets a move on and makes 'em today or tomorrow. Now that we know they're gonna be a thing, we're anxious to pop one (or three) down the ol' hatch!
Hope you've got somethin' cold and tasty in your future, too. Everyone should have a cool treat when it's hot outside.
I'll see you again in seven. 'til then...
"Be A Good Dog."
