The Beagle Boys Turn Three Years Old

8-Mar-10: Feargal, Fergus, and Fredrik turn three years old. How time flies!

Edit: Here’s the recipe for the cake (I skipped the carob chips and the frostings. They wolfed it down so fast, they didn’t know something was missing):

Banana Carob Chip Dog Birthday Cake

• 2 cups water
• 2 ripe bananas
• 1/8 tsp vanilla
• 3 cups whole wheat flour
• 1/2 Tbs baking powder
• 1 egg
• 2 Tbs honey
• 1/2 cup carob chips

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C)

2. In a mixing bowl combine water, bananas, vanilla, egg and honey.

3. Add whole wheat flour and baking powder. Mix well.

4. Pour mixture into an 8-inch cake pan sprayed with a nonstick spray.

5. Sprinkle carob chips on top.

6. Bake for 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.

Decorating suggestion:

Make both the Cinnamon and Carob frostings (below), then ice the cake with one, and use the other as a decorative trim.

Cinnamon Frosting:

1. Combine the following ingredients and blend thoroughly:

• 12 ounces nonfat cream cheese (room temperature)
• 3 tsp cinnamon
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 tsp honey

Carob Frosting:

1. Combine the following ingredients and blend thoroughly:

• 12 ounces nonfat cream cheese (room temperature)

Third Birthday Videos

The Beagle Boys turned three years old. Here’s video from all the day’s excitement.

In the first (short) video, Fred Fred runs around after getting his birthday bath:

The second video features the Fergus Dog gets all freaky after being released from his birthday bath:

Now it’s Feargal Butt’s turn to get freaky following his own bath. Meanwhile, I’m exhausted:

The next video is a two-parter and features the boys going berserk outside after the baths are finally done:

Here’s part two of the outside freakiness:

And in the final video of the day, the boys FINALLY get the payoff: their birthday cake (honey-banana) and their birthday Dentabones. Happy birthday boys!


The Howling

Something different I’d never seen before: All three howling at the same time. In fact, I can’t remember Fred howling before at all, but I could be wrong.

The cause of all the ‘citement? A chow-chow dog walked down their street. In front of their house. Shocking! (I don’t think Fergus even knew the puppy was out there. He just joined in for the fun of it.)
