April 🌼

Recovery has been going strong!! And I’m beginning to notice the differences in everything since my therapist and I started working through my PTSD. Just happy to be here ❤️

Blackberry Lavender Cake

We haven’t gotten into this yet, but I have a feeling it’s going to be delightful!

I love lavender flavored everything!! Especially in Spring. This seemed like the most perfect time for a Blackberry Lavender cake!

I found the recipe here: https://sallysbakingaddiction.com/blackberry-lavender-cake/

I kept the frosting its natural shade, because I thought it was beautiful, but also – food coloring, ew.
But I did use a small amount of the frosting and colored it with the juice of mashed blueberries and blackberries for the soft lavender/pink tone. I think it turned out pretty, I’m excited to try it! 😋

Freezer Dog Treats

It’s going to be a warm day today, so we needed a cold treat for after sunbathing on the deck!

Everyone loves these super easy frozen dog treats!! I just pour goats’ milk in a silicone mold, and added strawberries to some, (magnolia is big on her fruits!) natural peanut butter, honey and banana, (nova’s fave) Greek yogurt and blue spirulina for my allergy babes, and pumpkin flakes to a few for those who get the tummy aches 🙂 The combinations are pretty endless! Millie recommends ALL of them!
Happy dogs = happy mom 💖

Just getting into uploading my videos via YouTube! Here is a short clip of one of our visitors last fall. Stay tuned for more moving pictures 🤓
