PET ADOPTION BULLETIN
Huron OSPCA (Ontario Humane Society)
BIRDIE
Birdie was found wandering around a golf course
near Exeter. She was rescued and taken to the
shelter by some caring people. She was hungry and
full of parasites but after a good meal, medication
and a good night's sleep she is feeling much better.
Birdie is an all black 8 -week-old kitten, who was
formerly known as Murray until it was discovered
she was a girl. She is friendly but a little bit timid
after her ordeal. With some love and patience she
will be a wonderful pet.

cooking with memories
BY DEBBY WAGLER
WHAT BETTER TIME TO MAKE A FUN, NO COOK RECIPE THEN
OCTOBER 3 I ! THIS COOKIE IS MY YOUNGEST SON'S
FAVORITE COOKIE AND IF I DON'T PUT SOME HIDDEN AWAY
HE GENEROUSLY HELPS HIMSELF AND ALL OTHERS ONLY GET
TO SAMPLE A FEW REMAINING ONES. THEY CAN BE
CHANGED BY ADDING A VARIETY OF THINGS TO THE BASIC
RECIPE. JUST KEEP THE DRY INGREDIENTS TO ABOUT THE
SAME MEASUREMENTS! WHAT A FUN CREEPY CRAWLY SNACK
— BE CREATIVE SHAPING THEM!
BUGS
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup butterscotch chips
1/4 cup butter or margarine
1/4 cup smooth peanut butter
1 cup peanuts
2 cups dry Chinese noodles
(the ones in the can are the nicest)
Melt the first 4 ingredients in the microwave or on the
stovetop. Remove from heat when smooth and add dry
ingredients. Spoon onto a cookie sheet covered with waxed
paper in small mounds. Put in fridge to chill and then store in
a covered container in the fridge. These cookies freeze well
too so I often make a double batch. Try these variations: dried
cranberries, pretzels, raisins, dates, and/or mixed nuts.
