Favourite dog treat recipes please. Biscuit type.
I can’t cook an upvote. Doggo needs biscuits since his human declines other recompense.
500g lean mince (lamb or chicken works well-beef/pork can be a bit too fatty and go rancid), 300g rolled oats or oatmeal, 1 375g jar peanut butter, 1 tablespoon salt and 1 tablespoon kelp powder (optional). Mix well, and chill in the fridge for 1 hour. Dough will become quite squishy then firm up as it chills. If its too squishy after chilling, mix in more oats. Form into thumblike logs or roll out to 1/2 cm thick and cut bikkie shapes of your choice. Gingerbread men work well, but any shape that’s not too pointy will do. I used to make deep indents to make it easier to break into pieces. Bake at about 150 degrees C on a parchment lined tray for about 1 hour until thoroughly dried out and crunchy. Might take longer depending on how mushy the mince is, and logs take a bit longer. Logs should snap when bent not go bendy. Store in an airtight tin out of the fridge for up to 2 weeks if kept dry and cool. This mixture makes a couple of dozen bikkies or a dozen or so logs. Can be re-baked in a low oven if they go limp with storage.
Yay! I have a bone shape cutter already.
Forgot to mention - the absolute best mince is kangaroo. Way back when this was super cheap but now is costly as venison (which also works well but I’m not wasting venison on the dog). Also you may get a crispy frill of melted peanut butter around each bikkie when baking - just snap this off and give to the dog as a special treat. There’s nothing in this recipie that’s harmful to humans so if the kids get into them that’s no cause for worry.
Is there a lemmy suggestions box? I like to be able to hide users without blocking them and I’d like to be able to disable comment replys. God dam making some comments out of the instance and I get a bunch of updates from aggressive nerds that I really don’t care for. I tended to disable comments on reddit as soon as I’d commented due to notification avoidance.
Dumb question, but why not just block them?
Hiding feels more like I’m not interested in their content, blocking is for people I don’t like. Sometimes when dealing with my own struggles I can do without hearing about someone else’s. Even just being able to have their posts auto collapsed.
This is the closest feature request I have found, you could probably filter on username if/when that feature is implemented.
If that isn’t quite what you are after, that GitHub is the place to make your request.
I don’t want to go to bed but I’m tired. Maybe a nanna nap will work.
I just went outside and someone was smoking a big fat smelly joint.
I miss it; made me realise why my sleep is fucked up - I haven’t had medical in months now. Always tired and unrested.
I hate how expensive it is. Fuck I need a job so I can sleep again.
Uhh, you sure it’s not the six hour nap? More exercise will help your sleep too. It usually only takes me a week to shake the no pot insomnia.
Haha yes the 6 hour nap had a lot to do with it! I mean just my sleep rhythm in general. I use medical for cptsd symptoms, mainly night-terrors and subsequent insomnia. It stops me from waking up during the bad dreams/terrors, meaning I’m not avoiding sleep, and subsequently falling asleep during the day.
I do need to exercise more in general anyway, which I’m sure would help significantly!
Cptsd is a different story from regular no weed insomnia. Most of my friends buy off market as its still cheaper than prescribed.
Again with the conking out and waking for meds time then napping some more 🥱
Morning
Good morning from my other instance backup account.
dumblederp? Who is dumblederp?
Joey Jo Jo come back.
Correct
Three days into a hardcore diet change and while I know it’s what I needed to do to break some bad habits… ouchhhhh… just a hurdle to get over though!
your still setting the routine. It gets easier when you start to feel better from it and the habit sets in.
Talk to me about these changes. Sometimes it doesn’t need to be hard core.
Boyo and I have decided that this time, yeah, it does need to be hardcore. We keep finding excuses to be lax and dance around the issues, so going all in together to be better supports.
It is so good to have an encouraging partner. My husband is my underpaid PT. But unless one of you has done this before with success, hardcore may not be the way to go.
I wish you all the best and I can’t wait to hear your wins. ❤️
We’ve both done is separately before with great success - and both “fell off the wagon” due to completely reasonable circumstances, so I have a good feeling about this!
Underpaid PT, I love it. I’m sure he’s paid in love and karaoke! Thanks for your support, CEO!
That’s the spirit! I love this energy! Go get 'em girl!
He gets paid in lunches and dinners and yes my enthusiastic Friday night singing.
Steven Wilson released a new album recently and I’m digging it. His last few albums had more of an attempted pop spin on them whereas this one is two songs that go for around 20 minutes each. I don’t think we’ll get another Hand. Cannot. Erase. but it’s good to see a turn in that direction again.
Yeah, I’ve only listened to the new album twice, but it already leapfrogs the last 2 or 3
I can appreciate To The Bone more now knowing he bought a Telecaster and pretty much wrote the album with it, but I love the sweeping prog albums he did earlier and with Porcupine Tree
once i got to sleep i slept like a long and for a long time
Bill is not coping well, I think I will have to keep him in a bathroom for a little while until he calms down, has something to eat and drink and pees in a tray
also, it’s my observation lazy people make more work in the long run
I know I keep saying tinyest’s language is exploding. but hes now repeating almost all words said to him (or trying to anyway). He can now say “if you say so” and uses 2 words together pretty frequently. Sadly its “daddy, no” a lot of the time. But hes also become a lot less stingy with his hugs. And you best be prepared cause sometimes they are surprise hugs.
aw, that is so cute and awesome
and wow, I just love humans, we are really incredible. Language is what makes us. 😊 ( i must be super tired, i’m teary thinking how wonderful tinyest is )
yeah even his little “MINE!” is cute.
Naw. That’s beautiful! I for one would like to hear more tinyest milestones. ❤️
can let you know more as he develops. Still remember the day I finally told the DT that we were pregnant. Feels like weeks ago, not years.
Tell me about it. My kid’s 18 in 2 months. Time flies.
Once kids start talking, it’s great!!! You’re in for a good time.
A warning, kids have no filter. They say exactly what they see.
him being able to communicate needs (or wants) makes life so much easier!
One of my boys is a real talker. He’s at the same stage saying things like “this is mine”, “See you later”, and “see you tomorrow”. My girlfriend asked him what I do at work and he said “Helping old people” because that’s what she says to him when I go do my tech support sessions.
coffee, that was good
now for a shower and some clean clothes
I have mowed the “lawn” and even got fancy and trimmed the edges. Now my arms are all shaky.
Its that damn fine motor control again - I have this problem too when using the whippersnapper to edge around the trees etc.
I’m just tired and don’t feel up to the drama of potential scammers. I’m just gonna buy from reliable big stores now or buy on sight.
oh, and I did some image searches, the items I were interested on ebay were not described correctly, they were great items but described ikea etc 😠
For new stuff sure. I’ve found facebook and marketplace pretty reliable. People are so happy to deal with a genuine seller/buyer.
I dont have fb and am loathe to join.
do you think it’s safe, i’d use a new safe email and not give any other personal info
Ted is such a champ. Here he is enjoying the balcony. 🙂
And I found Bill after much searching , grabbed him, put him in bathroom with food water and a tray. He is better n. He must have felt so uncomfortable, poor little guy.
Bill and ted’s (and yours) excellent adventure :)
Poor bill, he’ll get the hang of it I’m sure.
Thank you 🙂 Bill’s getting better by the hour
but i have to be careful or anytime over the next two months as he could still do a runner. He gets scared and with no thought just runs
I see part of the ol Mic’s cistine chapel in there.
lol, his little paw reaching out
So I have a choice to make about this friday that I need to make today to ask for leave.
Friday’s are usually a light work day 9 out 10 times.
Should I take it off this week or stick it out and just spend the day at work?
If you really need a break, take the day off. If you have shit to do, take the day off. If you haven’t had a day off for a while, take the day off.
Otherwise go in and plan your next day off.
I reckon you need the day off.
