Long Overdue

Hey There!

So this post is long over due. Man, I miss blogging.

Guess what? I don't take pictures of every little detail of my life anymore. It's quite sad actually. I used to have my camera attached at the palm.....and now, not so much. 

But! I am here and determined to get back into the habit of blogging. My sweet man set up a desk and computer for me today in our home (oh, remember last time I was here I was newly engaged? We celebrate 6 months of marriage today. This post really *is* long over due.) 

Don't know what I;ll blog about. Maybe just random stuff again...just keep it loosy-goosy. 

Yep. 

 Over and out,

Hey Friends!

I'm here with a big, fun announcement!
On March 31st, 2012 the boyfriend proposed to me in a Barnes and Noble with paintings and behind the scenes friends taking pictures.

Epic Pizza Recipe

Hey Gang! 

Last weekend the boy and I made a pretty epic pizza. It was so good-I had to share it with you! 

On the left we have a honey pecan bbq sauce with sausage, and red and yellow bell peppers.

on the right we have a pesto sauce (just bought in the jar at the store) topped with tomatoes. 

Recipe:

1. Make this dough (from the lovely Pioneer Woman) 

• FOR THE CRUST (MAKES TWO CRUSTS):
• 1 teaspoon Active Dry Or Instant Yeast
• 4 cups All-purpose Flour
• 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
• 1/3 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  TO MAKE THE CRUST:
  Sprinkle yeast over 1 1/2 cups warm (not lukewarm) water.
  In a mixer, combine flour and salt. With the mixer running on low speed (with paddle attachment), drizzle in olive oil until combined with flour. Next, pour in yeast/water mixture and mix until just combined.
  Coat a separate mixing bowl with a light drizzle of olive oil, and form the dough into a ball. Toss to coat dough in olive oil, then cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and store in the fridge until you need it. ***It's best to make the dough at least 24 hours in advance, and 3 or 4 days is even better.
  
   2. Add toppings that sound good! (I just rummaged around the grocery store till I had what I liked)
  3. Add more cheese and bake! (preheated oven at 500 degrees, for about 12 minutes-depending on your oven)
  4. Inhale. Because chewing is for food network critics.

I've got to ask-because I love, love, LOVE pizza-what's your favorite kind!? Anything interesting I should try??

Toodles!

Howdy!

Well, howdy-doody, campers! Can I just say that I miss you guys? I really do miss blogging.

I haven't written a post in almost 2 months, and can I just say I still take pictures of everything-like a blogger-and when I take these pictures, I'm always thinking of what the title is going to be, and how I'll edit them and yada yada yada. After 2 months! That's amazing to me. So, here I am! 

I can't promise that I will be here posting things often, but I am going to try to be on more often then naught. Because I miss you! Really. I miss the sweet and crafty cozy community that is here. 

Anyways. No more moping! 

Let's be real, the reason I haven't been blogging is because...*drum roll please* I have a boyfriend! ha! 

and let's be real (yes, twice in one sentence) homeboy takes up a lot of my time. 

and lets been real (third times the charm!) I wouldn't have it any other way.

That's the reason I haven't been blogging. Yep. But we've had so many adventures already, and preschool has just been bursting with fun activities (I'm now in charge of all my lesson plans!) and I don't want to forget about them! 

So hopefully I'll be around a bit more. I'm going to start small-a post a week. :) 

What have *you* been up to?!

toodles,
