Mogley Exausted!

We took mogley on a long walk and when we got home, he wouldn't stop huffing and puffing... then he just dropped and stretched completely out in front of his water bowl...it gave us a little scare, but he was alright..


In these last two pics, you can see that we gave him a little cold bath to help cool him off haha.. He's the greatest pup ever!

Mogley's Hit List

Here are a few of the recent targets Mogley has terminated on his long list, not including: shoes, magazines, underwear and salsa bowls.

Sherlock Holmes

We bought the Sherlock Holmes DVD this week. Such a good movie. Lisa likes to watch lots of movies back to back, which I just can't do, but I actually made an exception to this one. Lots good editing, clever writing and witty acting done throughout the movie. If you haven't seen it, don't bother renting, just go ahead and buy it. No regrets. :)

OREO CAKE

We are experimenting some new recipes. After a couple failed desserts, we found one worth posting about:

1 pkg (2-layer size) devil's food chocolate cake mix

4 squares Baker's Semi-Sweet Chocolate

1/4 cup(1/2 stick) butter

1 pkg (8-0z) Philadelphia Cream Cheese, softened

1/2 cup sugar

2 cups thawed Cool Whip

12 Oreo cookies, coarsely crushed

Heat: oven to 350 degrees

Prepare cake batter and bake in 2 (9-inch) round as directed on cake mix package. Cool cakes in pans 10 min. Invert cakes onto wire racks; gently remove pans Cool cakes completely.

Microwave chocolate and butter in microwavable bowl on HIGH 2 min or until butter is melted. Stir until chocolate is completely melted. Cool 5 min.

Meanwhile, beat cream cheese and sugar in large bowl with mixer until blended. Gently stir in Cool Whip and crushed cookies. Stack cake layers on plate, spreading cream cheese mixture between layers. Spread top with chocolate glaze; let stand until firm. Keep refrigerated.
