Home made, bittersweet Playdough

As my dear friend counts down her last few hours here at The Sun, she found time to send me a link to a fun, all natural and non-toxic recipe that warms the heart.

Check it out here.

And because I couldn't locate a permalink, here is the recipe:

Ingredients:
3 cups flour, sifted
1 1/2 cup salt
6 teaspoons cream of tartar
3 1/4 cup water
3 tablespoons oilfood coloring

Directions:
Whisk all the dry ingredients together in a large pot until no lumps remain. Whisk in the wet ingredients (except for the food coloring) and stir until no lumps remain. Cook on high for 3-4 minutes until a dough forms. Separate into several portions and add food coloring, kneading until uniform in color. Store in airtight containers.
