BEST. PLAYDOH. RECIPE. EVER.

Made some play dough this morning....
I have tried, at least, a bazillion home play dough recipes. This one is by far the bestest: 

* 1 cup flour
* 1/4 cup salt 
* 3 tsp vinegar or lemon juice
* 2 tbsp oil 
* 1/2 cup water 
* food coloring

The actual recipe states to mix the dry ingredients together, then add the wet stuff slowly over a low heat. Wellllllllllllllll, I am impatient & just dumped everything in together. I used a package of Koolaid instead of food coloring & had to use vinegar. Kinda made for a stinky combo, so I think I'll use lemon juice for the next batch. I also added a little more four & vegetable oil to make it the consistency I like (I'm really picky; I can't stand it when the play dough turns out feeling salty). I made sure to stir up the gunk enough to get all the lumps out, then I let it sit for a bit to cool off. 
And then it was PLAY TIME.
