In this week's blog post, I'm changing it up again in honour of my furry friend Cara. She celebrated her second birthday last week. As it has been our tradition for many years with our current furry children as well as our last two, Lana and Darren, I baked some yummy Apple-Pumpkin Cookies to help us celebrate. While the baked goods were made for our furry companions, they can also be consumed by humans, although they might not be to their liking due to the lack of sugars. This recipe and several others can also be found in my upcoming book, Living with Canine Epilepsy, and yields about 25 cookies. Since these cookies do not contain preservatives,
they should be refrigerated.

cookies:
- 1 ¼ cups rice
flour

(optional)
Directions:
1. Preheat oven

on lightly floured surface and cut out cookies.
