HELLLLLLLOOOO Internet!

Okay.. I'm back and have done some spring cleaning. I felt like I was trying too hard to be like all the other blogs out there and it just wasn't working for me, so hopefully you like the changes! So who isn't diggin' the nicer weather? I can't wait for summer... cookouts, sangria, no coats, ahhhh. :) I have been trying to clean our house in spirit of the nicer weather and I can't help but wonder where all the "stuff" comes from.. we have so much crap that we never use or even worse that is broken. I blame the dollar stores. I love the dollar store (really.. where else can you buy underwear and oil for your car for $2.00?) but my sons see all the junk and at the time I think "It's only $1" and before I know it we have 200 broken plastic boats. We are having neighbors over for dinner tonight and I am making Pizzas. We have pizza at least once a week around here and as far as I'm concerned, making it yourself is the way to go. Let's see.. $20.00 or $4.00.. hmmmm.... Laurie's Pizza crust: 1 cup of warm water 1/4 cup olive oil 1 TBSP salt 3 1/2 cups of flour 2 TBSP of yeast Dump it in your bread machine on the dough setting and you are ready to rock. I cook my pizzas at 500 Degrees for 8 min, but any pizza recipe with work just fine. That's it for now.. stay tuned for more exciting adventures with Laurie :)
