Mom's Play Dough

Friends of mine and I were chatting the other day about how great homemade play dough is.  Brought back memories of my mom whipping up a batch and sitting us 3 kids up at the table for hours of fun.  Thought I would share it with the rest of you moms out there who are looking for a fun afternoon with your little ones.
