Playdough
2 cups flour 1 cup salt 4 teaspoons cream of tartar 2 Tablespoons vegetable oil 2 cups water	Food coloring
Mix all ingredients together in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat about 3 to five minutes, stirring constantly. It will look like a “globby” mess and you’ll be sure it’s not turning out, but it will. Once thick, turn out onto smooth surface, allow to cool slightly, and then knead until smooth. Playdough can be kept in a sealed plastic bag for approximately three weeks.
