Happy 25th birthday to our student Lilly!!

here at NITHR we love rainbows! We love when the sun highlights the fact that the clouds are in the distance and not over our heads! Plus we love the festivity of the bright colors and the promise it represents

We have some picky eaters here who need meds daily. The soft cookies we were buying ended up being $1.37 per cookie!!! that’s over $200 a month in just cookies to add to the $250 arthritis meds for 5 of our older 4 legged staff members.

SO we made up our own soft cookie recipe:
(pony tested and approved !)
2lbs oats
4 cups rice syrup
8 shredded carrots
3 tablespoons of salt
2.5 cups of flour

bake @ 375 for 15 minutes!

then pack into tight balls (gloves recommended) and cool in fridge or freezer

this is pennys on the dollar to store bought!
