Play dough recipe

Preface
I chose this recipe for my friend, Jen, who had never made play dough. She wanted to do it with her daughter at home. This one is a bit simpler than other recipes.

Ingredients
1 cup salt
2 cups flour
4 tablespoons cream of tartar
2 tablespoons cooking oil
2 cups water
food coloring

Instructions
Step 1. Take a saucepan and mix all the ingredients in it.
Step 2. Now heat the mixture with medium heat for 3 to 5 minutes. While heating, constantly stir the content until it becomes stiff.

Tip
If they are stored in the refrigerator, then the play dough will last for weeks or even months!

Veronica's tricks

My way of remembering is to write the information on my hand order to remember what to do and then when I get home I automatically go on my Gmail, iGoogle and my planner. If I don’t write it down somewhere I would forget it in a few minutes. If it was really important, I would grab my sticky notes and tape them where I can see them; for example, I tape them on my clock, my bathroom door and my mirror.
