The prize was, green papers to spend in Amazon. I took a long time over what to get, It had to be something that I would look at and remember it came from Wyatt, well this is what I got.
Yep a cook book, I can get a bit board with my food, some days I just don't feel Hungry, there's some great recipes in it just like peeps food, it has photos of dogs on the pages, no WT's or Airedales but there is alot of photos of this fella
I am not to sure why the vet says I should loose some weight, but I am, moms cut down on me paddywacks
I'd eat them all day if I could, she also thinks I need more exercise, who's she kidding, I'm always out and about!!!. So I also got this ball !!!
She let me have that one in the photo, but the rest of the packet is still on the top shelve unopened!!!
I now have to roll it round to get me dinner!!
I'm getting quite good at getting the food out, it makes a right racket in the kitchen lol.
Right that enough of healthy food and excise, lets get on to the fatty but nice recipe that will put hairs on your chest! The next photo is the one that I sent in with the recipe back in August, just look how well groomed I was. Well, I got mom to get on the phone straight away to book me into the groomers, I tell yea at the moment I can hardly see where I'm going!
George the Lad's Welsh Cakes
Ingredients
125g of butter
250g of self rising flour
75g of castor sugar (super fine)
Pinch of mixed spices
100g of currants/sultanas/raisins
1 egg beaten
Method
Mix together the butter and flour
Add the egg
Put the sugar, spice and fruit into the mixture
Put the mixture into the fridge to cool for 30 minutes
Roll out the mixture to 1 cm thick
Cut into circles
Cook the cakes in a frying pan or on a bakestone WITHOUT using oil or butter until they are browned on both sides. (don't have it to hot they will burn before being cooked!!)
Sprinkle with sugar and serve, they also taste nice with butter on them.
Best when warm or reheated in microwave!
Thanks I get to try a bit
Mmmmmmm tasty
See what I mean NO EYES!!!
Anyways thanks Wyatt for the green papers to get the cook book and the ball.
Some of you know I have been on Bertie's Field Trip, go take a look, when we left we agreed that the finer details of the trip are between the furiends that went. I think I'm all right saying we all bonded very well !!!
See Yea George xxx

Mom is really oohing and aahing over those welsh cakes - she would love to give that recipe a test. Thanks for sharing.
Great choice for your prize - you will have to let us know if you find any really special recipes.
Happy grooming, although we do like the shaggy look:)

Hi George those cakes look delicious. We saw that cute little pan on your stove last week we were wondering what Mom cooked on it.
We enjoyed reading about your antics on Bertie's Field Trip.
You asked about a little window by my chair in today's post. Yes we do have an octagonal window right about the chair...it lets in the nices sunbeams.
Happy Almost Thursday,

Congrats to you, George! I love that little ball. My dad's dog has one kind of like that but his isn't nearly as pretty.
Congrats Georgie!
My Mom has a question for your Mom, what spices are in "Pinch of mixed spices"?
Those Welsh Cakes sure do look like winner to me!
woo woos, Tessa
Oh, those look lovely. So does the ball, actually. I hope you enjoy them both. Perhaps you can recommend some recipes.
lotsa licks, Lola
Dear George.
Fergi wanted me to tell you she's "blushing." I'm not sure what that's all about. As for me ... I'm sorta obsessing on those Welsh cakes (though Moma won't let me eat raisins or currents, so she says I'd better put my attention on the recipes likely to come from your amazing new CookBook and let HER take care of the cakes.)
Good luck with the grooming ... we just gave up all our furs, just in time for the temperatures to drop for a day.
See ya!
Jake (and Fergi)
George-
We are still making the Welsh Cakes on the weekends. It's a new favorite around here...YUM YUM! Glad you got some nifty gifts.
I like your froggie pose today :)
Wyatt

Wow George those Welsh Cakes look just fantastic. I am sending Gail to the kitchen right now! Then on to the computer to order some of those Paddywhack thingies. (If only us dogs were allowed our own credit cards..)
Toodle pip!
Bertie.
PS To George's Dad from Gail. I'm afraid the whole thing about Murchison got a bit out of hand on the field trip (see tomorrow's post.....) Problem is that we have been reading a book called 'The Highlands Controversy' by David Oldroyd, and Bertie learned that Murchison got it all wrong when he said all the north of Scotland was Silurian. V. interesting book!
OMG my son, you are TOO MUCH! NO EYES! teeeeheeeee....and those Welsh cakes will put hair on yer chest for sure! I would like mine with some jam please...and I SAW MI PHOTO!!! THAT IS ME, BALZAC THE GREAT on the cover of that bag....mi mum says that I am fat too....these peeps are ridiculous sometimes!!!! LOVE YA OLD MAN, Balzac and Anita
PS George I meant to tell you last night that I, Madi, feel your hunger pains...I too have had my kibble reduced in the evening....woe be unto me...I'll waste away....in days.
Madi
PS George....I guess after seeing today's pictures you know why I call Madi a Diva and why she has on a Diva hat!!!
She is S P O I L E D!!! Horribly!!!
Mom

Hi George,
Thanks for your visit!! I am not going to blog until my hands feel better but I am going to comment. The blog that I have to do will be a long one and commenting is not so long. I have arthritis in a bunch of places on my body, hands are just one place!!!
George you are my kind of man!!! Coming to see me even if I haven't blogged!!!! Nice!!!!
XXOO, Bambi & Fern
Ps, congrats on winning Wyatt's contest. I cook for Bambi, she gets nothing that is made for a dog. Look forward to some great recipes.
Oh, those Welsh cakes are making us drool! Yummmm. Congrats on your winnings - excellent choices. Oh, yeah, our Mom & Dad met two girl Airedales the other day and they were reminded of you! Dad thought they were just like you, but Welse Terriers are a bit smaller, right? Have you ever done a post on the diff between Airedales and Welse Terriers? That would be really interesting. Anywho, they are the first Airedales we've seen around these parts. They were very sweet girls!
