I just noticed that sweet Cookie is now memorialized here. I lost my dear Molly girl who also was my “first baby” this year. How wonderful to have a pure soul witness our life happening as we’re busy making big plans.

Thank you for this great resource, I always come here first when our produce box arrives. I’ve got more butternut squash than I know what to do with at the moment and so I came here, and now I’m in tears remembering my own sweet Molly – who also tasted more than I offered. She literally would eat anything.

I wish you could have 13 more years with her.

Most Warmly,
Katy

So again, thank you for sharing. God bless you and your family!]]> Kate, I am just now seeing this writing, obviously quite a bit later. I am so, so sorry for your loss. I follow your blog, and often when I’m looking for a recipe online, I look for the Cookie and Kate link, because I trust your choices of food, and I love how you don’t make your recipes over complicated. I am vegan. I am also an animal lover, and have had many furry kid companions over the years. It always hurts so much when they leave a void in our life. I still tear up over a couple of the ones that I lost several years ago when I see their pictures. What a blessing they are to have in our life, to enrich our days, and share unconditional love with us. And I know we have been blessings to them as we have loved them to the best of our ability and I believe they know that. Thank you for sharing your heart. ❤️ Even though it made me wanna cry as I was reading, I know that all of us dog lovers have such a heart connection when we are missing our furry companions. So again, thank you for sharing. God bless you and your family!

I always loved your little bio that said “My dog, Cookie, eats the crumbs.” I always revisit your blog when I’m scouring for a recipe. And I didn’t see it when I looked recently! So heartbroken by this news but so happy that you are where you want to be.

It was hard for me to believe that vegetarian cooking could taste so good. As a dog lover myself, i thought it was so sweet that your pup was the headliner and let’s face it – the star of the show. I am so sorry that she has passed. I have told so many friends about your recipes and even gifted your cook book to many- my own is dog eared and a little worn but I still love cooking up all your delightful recipes. Thank you for sharing your talents and of course Cookie with all of us❤️

I didnt have oat flour so I used combo of coconut flour and almond flour…crumbles. Could this substitute have worked?
Oh, how sad I am that you lost Cookie. My dog Chip passed away from Lymphoma about the same time. He was only 7 years old.
On a happy note, I recently purchased your cookbook and plan to try all your recipes.

My heart goes out to you, perhaps a year later than expected. Somehow, I missed this post.

Hugs from all of our four legged loved ones and two leggers that understand the word “unconditional” because of them.

Shari Michelle

You are so kind, Laura. I’m sorry about your loss. It’s hard since they are a member of the family. I hope you find peace and have wonderful memories to hold onto.
