playdough

over the weekend i made some playdough

from a recipie the childrens museum had

on ruby's bday.

so its taken me that long to make it...i know.

i luckily had some peppermint extract on hand

so that made playing with it a little better than

the usual playdough go.

{oh, and noted...i forgot the cream of tartar,

and it worked out fine. after a couple days

it started getting pretty sticky though.}

have fun and enjoy....if you have little hands in the house.

homemade playdough

4c. flour

2c. salt

4 c. water

8 t. cream of tartar

6 T. oil

food coloring

peppermint extract (optional)

mix together in a large saucepan. cook until it holds together and pulls away from pan. cool and knead. (note: you need mom muscles to stir this up. its kinda weird. and i only made a half batch and it was plenty).

enjoy!!
