I don't know what the issue was. I was told that it helps with the runs. No more scours and she ate well tonight. Will see what tomorrow brings.

Felt slighted/cheated/deprived having no dessert so looked in the cupboards and found chocolate pudding, a couple graham cracker crusts, a can of left over whipped cream in the fridge, and had milk so made a pudding cake. The fist slice was very tasty. Then I made a plate of leftovers to hold me over night. :):drool

I had created a concoction of ACV/honey/water which was recommended for Beauty for her scours

Source... of that recommendation?
OK, how do you make cookies without baking them?
Most involve oatmeal and peanut butter and you bring the ingredients to a boil on the stovetop.

The photos below are from:

and the full directions are there.

Heat, stir, bring to boil..add oatmeal...

stir some more..

drop them on a sheet and smoosh them out a bit

It works by the oatmeal absorbing most of the 'liquid" while they are sitting on the cookie sheet and the goo dries out a lot. You need to follow the written directions closely so you don't end up with a runny gooey mess that never hardens and you have to eat it off the sheet with a spoon.
DO wash the pan you brought the ingredients to a boil in.... as soon as you're done..don't ask how I know.

Some, you still make a thin dough of sorts, and pour the batter out on a skillet and cook them like miniature pancakes. ....

Or, you can get yourself a Barbie Easy Bake oven ....

My little dog is punishing me for leaving him outside tonight... It's not even cold at 48° Every hour, just about on the hour he has decided there will be some "threat" that must be pointed out, so he barks his damn fool head off until I get up, crack a window and tell him to shut the hell up!

One of the best parts of large holiday meals is the leftovers! :drool Didn't get a lot of sleep last night due to the damned fool dog I have. :somad So was pretty tired when I crawled out of bed this morning. Got all the morning chores done and made my big mug of tea and already had my first plate full of left over food. A slice of chocolate pudding pie covered with whipped cream :D:drool Planning on REAL food leftovers for lunch and dinner. Maybe followed by another slice of pie. The only thing I've eaten off the turkey so far is the wings. My fave is the dark meat but will prob mix that with some white with gravy. I'll save most of the white meat for sandwiches and turkey salad. I may make a nice rich soup with the carcass and whatever meat is left. OH, also got a bonus with this bird... it had 2 necks :) More for the soup pot!

So Beauty is back to her beautiful self this morning. Ate her pellets right along with the others, fought with her co-kids at the hay and then moved to the other hay buckets to sample some of the other does' as well. She did poop while eating and everything came out perfectly fine as nice tiny hard little balls of processed goat food. Guess she had something akin to what we sometimes suffer as a 24 hour stomach bug. Something she ate most likely. I'm just glad it wasn't anything serious.
