WIENER WEENIE DOGS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Carefully unwrap the crescent dough. You want to keep two triangles together to make one long rectangle.
• Lay the rectangle down on a clean counter.
• Put a hot dog on the dough and wrap the dough around it, pressing the edges together.
• Move it to a cookie sheet.
• Do this for 4 weenie dogs, SAVING 2 hot dogs for next step.
• Cut the 2 remaining hot dogs into thirds, and save the 4 rounded ends for the dogs' NOSES.
• Put the 4 NOSES on the cookie sheet, with the crescent wrapped weenies, and BAKE for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the dough on the wrapped hot dogs is BROWNED on the edges.
• While the dogs are in the oven, prepare their legs and tails: for each dog, cut 2 pickles in HALF horizontally (crosswise) with a butter knife and carefully push a toothpick halfway into the cut end of each one. Choose another pickle for the tail and stick a toothpick in it, too.
• Cut (use a kitchen scissors) the red bell pepper into teardrop shapes for the floppy EARS.
• Push a toothpick through the middle of a cherry tomato and stick the ears onto each side of the toothpick, kind of hanging down.
• When the dogs come out of the oven, let them cool awhile on the sheet, and then stick on the NOSES with a toothpick.
• With another toothpick, add the tomato head with its droopy ears.
• Push the toothpicks holding the legs and tails into the dogs.
• Last of all, cut the olives into thick squares for the EYES using the cream cheese to stick them on.
• Now, the fun part. Admire your dogs, ask mom if you can take a picture of it and post to RZ, and then chow down. Make sure you remove the toothpicks first!

RHODE ISLAND HOT WIENERS

Serve in buns with meat sauce and toppings as desired.

WIENER GRAVY

Steps:

• 1. In a skillet, heat your oil or grease over medium heat. If you want it to taste mild, use oil. If you want it to have a stronger pork taste, use some bacon grease. I like to use a little of both. How much you use will depends on how many wieners you have. For 2 wieners I use about 1 T. of oil, 1 T. of bacon grease and 2 T. of flour (later in recipe). Slice wieners into coins into grease. Fry until desired crispness...I like mine about half crispy. Sprinkle flour on top of wieners and stir (should be the consistency of wet sand) and fry for a few minutes until flour starts to get a nice tan color. A little at a time while constantly stirring, add your liquid. If you want a stronger taste, use water. If you like a creamier taste, use milk, or some of both. How much will depend on how much grease you started with, but for what I've told you already will probably be around 2 cups. Cook and stir until bubbly and desired thickness. Season with salt and pepper. Serve over biscuits, toast or your favorite bread.
