Hudson's Birthday Bash


Today Hudson (of the team of Luke, Hudson and Murphy) is having a Huge Birthday Bash in Pennsylvania.    I have never had a Huge Birthday Bash, so I have no idea what that might be, but I think I am jealous.    I have never had a huge BASH over anything.  Poor Bob.

But anyway, I was reading all about the Big Bash as it came in from my Uncle Erich over the 2DogsHotline.  Here is what Erich said:

Sunday, August 2 -- Hudsy's Birthday Bash – You can read all about it here: http://bit.ly/RD7yI There will be doggie birthday cake and doggie games (don't ask me … I have NO idea. But I hope someone takes pictures and sends them to me.) Festivities are from 4:00PM to 6:00PM EDT at South Park--Parcell Shelter, adjacent to dog park, Corrigan Drive, South Park, PA 15129. I know Luke went shopping for the goodies to make a Murphy Sammich, so the dogs will be thrilled with that. If you're not familiar with a Murphy Sammich, check it out here: http://2dogs2000miles.blogspot.com/2009/05/murphy-sammich.html I imagine there will be goodies for people too.

Luke and Hudson have asked that, in lieu of gifts, please consider making a donation to Operation Troop Appreciation http://www.operationtroopappreciation.com/ which provides `wish list' items to our deployed servicemen to contribute to their morale. Luke has wanted to do something for the troops since the walk began, and he and Hudson agree that this is a great cause.

I wanted to find out all about the Murphy Sammich because it sounded kind of interesting and if I was every to get a BASH thrown for me for some wonderful occasion, I think I might like one.    Now, after learning all about it (see below), I am doubly jealous.   Why has no one every done something like this for me?   Am I just not worthy?

Here is what Big Dog Luke was creative to think up..... straight from his Blogging about Murphy's 8th Birthday in May.

Murphy turned 8 this past Sunday, May 31st and I had this idea of making something really special for my little snowflake.

We've been through a lot together - he was rescued from an abusive home and came into my and Malcolm's lives as a wee lad. And with a whole host of behavioral problems, too! He used to run around my townhome peeing in a continuous stream like writing in cursive and he hated my wallpaper, preferring rather the rustic look of shredded sheetrock.

Malcolm helped him through these issues and years later, Murphy became the loyal brother to Malcolm as he went through cancer, amputation, and chemotherapy. Murphy's strength helped me deal with his loss..









This is his second birthday we've celebrated on the road and I wanted it to be Murphy's very best and that means one thing - Food! His favorite being, of course, The Honest Kitchen and that became the inspiration behind the Murphy Sammich...

Step (1) Purchase two pizza pie crusts in a package like Boboli. I used Kroger brand - it's thinner and didn't have seasonings.

Step (2) In a bowl, take 2 cups of the Honest Kitchen's Embark (that's what Murphy loves but you can substitute it for Force, Verve, etc.), add 3-4 cups of water, then stir thoroughly. You want it a tad watery since it'll be baked. Spread on the bottom pizza crust.

Steps (3): Add cheese - I think I used 10 slices of American cheese.

Step (4): Cook 8 strips of bacon in a microwave and after they've cooled, tear them up into pieces, placing them on top of the cheese.

Step (5): Place the second pizza crust on top making the 'sammich' and put it into a pre-heated 450 degree oven for about 15 minutes.

Step (6): Let it cool then decorate with Cheese Whiz. Like a dunderhead, I tried to cut it with a pizza cutter first and the result was pretty much as you'd expect. Not much to look at but boy, was it a hit at the birthday party! Then again, I'm a walker not a baker! Enjoy...



Doesn't this look yummy?    Can't you just imagine how nicely the letters 
                     Bob's Big Bash    
                                                                   would fit on this sammich?   

Oh, boy, oh boy.    I'm so sorry to start off a whole new month finding out that once again no one cares about me.

Love,

Bob
........ too sad to even eat anything
................. well --
................................. maybe just a tiny bite
