That is one VERY cute baby, a very thoughtful look, too. I was so wrapped up in what I was trying to do that I didn't comment. Annie, Sam does look a good bit like Sean Connery but wasn't thrilled with all the picture taking that was going on, I think. Basically he's a happy, fun-loving person to travel with. Ann is my best friend and we've known Sam for years and traveled together numerous times. Neither of our husbands like to travel but don't mind if we do, so it works well. You're on the countdown with the wedding now and I know it will be beautiful and I'd say fun, too. You've put in a lot of hard work and I can't wait to see the pictures and hear all about it. jude

I just posted this in one of the other treads This is a recipe for a meatloaf for dogs. They also have a vegetarian version on the site Mable's Meat Loaf - meat eater's version (makes two large loaves - 24 slices) 1 1/2 pounds Ground Beef , Venison, Chicken or Turkey 2 cups cooked & pureed Beans and/or Lentils- I use Pinto Beans 2 cups Corn Masa Harina Flour (corn flour)- Masa Harina is a fortified, fine ground corn flour that has been partially precooked in lime water (which makes it easier to digest). It is usually used for making tortillas and tamales and can be found in the ethnic (Mexican) section of most grocery stores. If you cannot find it, you can substitute regular corn meal. 1 cups Rolled Oats (I buy in bulk) 4 cups cooked rice (I buy in bulk) 1 cup wheat germ (I buy in bulk) 1 - 2 cups liquid (water, milk, whey, stock, etc) - This amount will vary depending on the moisture content of your other ingredients. 2 eggs 2 cups (1 lb.) vegetables, pureed - You can use any vegetable. It's good to vary ingredients because variety in diet contributes to good health. I usually use frozen mixed vegetables, peas or broccoli. I buy them is a really big bags (it's cheaper that way) , thaw, puree in my food processor, divide into 2 Cup portions and refreeze for future use. 3 tsp. garlic (granulated) 3 tsp. Calcium Citrate -OR- 6 tsp. egg shell powder - a source of necessary calcium 1/2 tsp. salt substitute (potassium chloride) - a source of necessary potassium - you can find this in any grocery store where they sell salt. 2 Tbsp Worcestershire Sauce 1/4 cup ketchup (optional- not for use with diabetics) 6 tsp. Herbal Nutritional Supplement (optional, but highly recommended) other optional supplements if necessary such as Arthritis & Joint Support mix, Glucosamine, MSM, Kelp, etc. (Mable got 1 1/2 tsp. of Glucosamine & 1 1/2 tsp. of MSM - Note: reports now suggest not giving glucosamine to diabetics) It is important that your dog should also receive a good dog multi-vitamin each day (a vitamin formulated specifically for dogs, not humans), either as a powder mixed into this loaf, or a tablet given as a treat. In a very large bowl. Using your hands, mix all the ingredients together very well. (Since ground meats differ in consistency, you may need to add more liquid). Put into two large loaf pans and spread out evenly. Bake at 350 degrees for one hour. Cool and store in the refrigerator. Makes 12 slices per loaf. To serve, slice and cut into bite sized chunks. You can also slice off servings, put in ziplock bags and freeze them for later use. Measurement of the loaf pans I use: measurement taken from bottom of pan: 8 1/4" X 4 1/4" measurement taken from top of pan: 9 1/4" X 5 1/4" height: 2 3/4" I bought my pans at Wal-Mart. Serving amount: You will have to adjust to fit the caloric needs of your own dog. See the Daily Caloric Requirements for Adult Dogs chart. Mable, who was a 60 pound Basset Hound got two slices, twice a day (a breakfast and a dinner for a total of four slices per day). She also received other nutritionally adjusted home made foods (such as Mable's Peanut Butter Bones) throughout the day which contribute to her proper daily caloric intake. Nutritional Breakdown for four slices (one sixth of total recipe) (made with ground beef) (this recipe makes two large loaves total and I divide it into 24 slices) Calories in four slices: 837 (one slice would have 210) 20% from Protein 33% from Fat 48% from Carb Vit C 7 mg Phos 659 mg Calcium 1849 mg Iron 10 mg Protein 41 g Sodium 534 mg Potassium 1350 mg Tot Fat 31 g Magnesium 179 mg Sat Fat 11 g Zinc 9 mg Mono Fat 12 g Copper 1 mg Poly Fat 4 g Manganese 4 mg Carb 100 g Selenium 64 ug Fiber 15 g Vit A 2739 IU Ash 5 g Vit E 1 mg ATE Cholesterol 167 mg Thiamin 1 mg Vit B6 1 mg Riboflavin 1 mg Folate 268 ug Niacin 13 mg Vit B12 3 ug Pantothenic Acid 2 mg Here is a link that might be useful: Molly's Herbals

Franny, I love the magazine and I love the site. I've made many a wonderful dish from Food and Drink! I especially like how a picture of the dish shows up as you scroll across the recipe list.
