Today was Oscar's second birthday. Two years ago he came into the world disguised as a small furry sweet potato.

He is having a little party on Saturday with a couple of his friends, but we couldn't let the day go uncelebrated. So Aaron and I made him some homemade peanut butter biscuits and he had one with candles while we sang Happy Birthday.

Pictures of the glorious event.

Recipe here... 1&1/2 cups water, 1/2 cup oil, 2 eggs, 4 tbsp chunky peanut butter, 2 tsp vanilla, 3 cups flour, 1 cup cornmeal and 3/4 cups oatmeal.... blend wet ingredients, add dry ingredients... roll out dough and cut shapes... bake on greased cookie sheet at 400 degrees for 20 minutes... let them cool in the oven to harden. Oscar gave them his seal of approval!

    I didn't realize he was just a baby! Molson, in comparison is an old man of 7! How sweet! We usually get Molson hopped up on catnip for his celebration. It's funny.

    Happy Birthday, Oscar! And thanks for the recipe, Jenny. :) Have you seen the Three Dog Bakery Cookbook?... I am dying to buy it and make some treats for my little Boston Terrier, Herman.

    Happy Birthday, Oscar!

    My pugs' birthdays are in Nov (well, Leelah's is in Dec, but is observed in Nov) and I will definately have to try out your cookie recipe. They's be 3!

    Now, please share with us how you got Oscar to wear the hat!

    I remember when you first posted you were going to get a pug...In honor of the momentous b'day, I thought I'd repost it here. (P.S. Can you imagine if Oscar had been Virgil?!)

    Pug Q. Puppy

    Aaron and I are seriously thinking about getting a pug puppy. Aaron is in touch with a lady whose pug is expecting a litter at the end of the month. We are going to go halfsies on him, which I think is a pretty good deal, because the pug would live with me.

    We were looking at names at the book store... here is a preliminary list....

    Stewart, Stuey, Spike, Bosley, Otis, Oscar, Flash, Rudy, Sparky, Parker, Abe, Bernard (pronounced Ber-nerd, like in Bridget Jone's Diary), Bruno, Buck, Bert, Carter, Cary, Cecil, Chase, Chip, Cliff, Cole, Como, Rory, Corky, Dewey, Dudley, Duncan, Elmer, Fritz, Lenny, Kenny, Gus, Lloyd, Monty, Morris, Murphy, Paxton, Percy, Porter, Ralph, Remy, Ridley, Rupert, Rueben, Shelby, Sully, Turner, Victor, Vincent (Vinny), Virgil, Wade, Walker, Wally, Walter, Wesley, Wilmer, Wilson, Winston, Winton, Winthrop, Clyde, Stanley.

    Any other thoughts?
