Found the following quite by accident, thought you might be in need of it sometime, if you haven't made this already, that is... Medicine Ball 1 package of instant oatmeal, 1 handful of oats, 1/2 cup molasses, 4 tablespoons of smooth peanut butter, (NOT the crunchy)Any medicine he/she doesn't like to take. Mix all together in small balls so it all sticks together. Sprinkle sugar over top for an extra treat..Feed to your horse that's ailing, and watch him/her gobble it up while taking his/her medicine... So keen on the treat, won't even notice the medicine in it! Thanks for the feed back on the horse cookies...just shows I know very little about your horsey friends out there.

That's a lot of hard work in the heat. But I'm sure the rescued horses appreciate what you've done for them. Now if we only lived in the west, and not out here on the east coast, you would have had some extra hands to make the job go faster. Marilyn Hi Rose…Sure don’t envy you and the fencing project.
