Tomorrow is Heidi's birthday party. I decided to make her some homemade playdough because Beth had told me she loves the one she got for Christmas, but she only had yellow. Plus it is edible and safe for little kids.
Here's the recipe I used
*1 cup water
*1 tablespoon vegetable oil
*1/2 cup salt
*1 tablespoon cream of tartar
*Food coloring
*1 cup flour
Note:
Cream of tartar is crazy hard to find at a good price. Boyd and I went to Marc's because we thought we could get some rip off brand and not have to pay as much but all they had was McCormick for $3.28. Booo! So we went to Giant Eagle who had McCormick for $4.98! WHAT! They had the Giant Eagle brand for $4.19, but who wants to pay that much for the store brand when you could get the name brand for less. So we tried our luck at ACME: $4.98. What were we going to do? So we took our chances and went to the expensive grocery store, Heinen's. $2.99! WE WON! Now we know, when you are looking for cream of tartar, go to Heinen's!
