Lucky Dog Treats

honest, they're dog treats !

So my son was invited to a dog's birthday party this Sunday (seriously, a DOG ??), and wanted to bring a gift. Unfortunately, my son has a crazy foodie for a mom, so I of course suggested something homemade...'cause that's just how I roll. Alex rose to the occasion, though, and made these. I have a large cookie cutter collection, but I think the shamrocks spoke to him since it's March and all. So...Lucky Dog Treats ! I have to say, my house smells really, really good after baking these...those dogs must be on to something !
