Corky Crisps debut!

Puppysitting a few weeks ago had me in the kitchen thinking about what dogs like. On top of getting creative with frozen yogurt, I also developed a peanut butter treat recipe from a collaboration of other recipes and online reading.

The dogs went ga-ga for them. Especially my dog, Corky (up in front). His trademark trick is to spin around in a complete 360° circle, landing in a sitting position, ready to receive a treat. He loved these home made peanut butter treats so much he would spin in four or five complete circles, desperate for me to pass them out!

I thought it'd be a cute business venture. What with my love for cooking, and Corky's love for eating.

After coming up with a cutesy name and Johnny whipping up a logo, I tagged along with Johnny's sister, Di, to a few craft shows. I wanted to see how they'd sell to others. I'm happy to report that I sold out! That gave me the go ahead I needed to move to online sales!

I would absolutely love your support in "liking" Corky Crisps on Facebook.


Also, if you have a dog, or know somebody with dogs, please consider visiting my Etsy store!

Right now I'm offering four sizes of traditional bone shaped treats, as well as two sizes of holiday shaped treats!


Thank you so much guys! Your support of my human food sharing already means so much to me, so I hope it's not a stretch for you to also love my canine cooking ventures!

Frozen Yogurt is for the dogs

Two weekends ago I puppysat for Johnny's sister. She has two puppies and they're in their "chewing" stage, so I was researching ways to keep their little mouths busy. I read on a few web sites that dogs love frozen treats because it occupies them for awhile. With three rambunctious dogs that never seemed to tire, that's just the thing I was looking for!

I placed three small dog bones in the bottom of three freezer-safe glass bowls. Then, I simply covered each with about 1/2 cup of fat free plain yogurt. Allow to freeze overnight, then run under hot water until they pop free.

I chose to let them have these treats outside so they wouldn't get the floor dirty. (And I could get some peace and quiet for a few minutes.)

Later that night the three of them curled up together in the spare bedroom. How adorable are these little faces??
