Cool Veggie Pizza




Last night I made a big Cool Veggie Pizza for Susannah to take to school for her class - they are doing a project on healthy eating and so this was a healthy recipe for them to try! I also made a smaller version for the workmen and today I put it out for them before I left to take Sam to school, and told them to enjoy it with their lunch! Denis had brought his two Sons to work with him today (they are on Spring Break so earning some extra money working for Dad) so it was the perfect day for me to serve up some extra lunch goodies!

Turns out the Cool Veggie Pizza was a huge hit all round! There were only 10 students in Susannahs class today so everyone got to have seconds and several people asked for the recipe (teachers included)!! And the workmen and boys all LOVED their lunch :)

The pictures I have added are old ones I have used before as I didn't take any last night! I don't have this oven any more - its actually sat outside on the grass right now lol! With my fridge!!

I am loving my new oven......just looking forward to having counters that will be so much nicer to use than the horrid boards I have right now ;)

Back to Pre-K.....



Sam went back to Pre-K today....he was happy to be back in class once he got there but when I told him last night that he was going, he didn't seem too thrilled! He said his arm hurt too much (????????) hahaha!!

He had a great time though and we sneaked a look at him through the window before class ended, to see him enjoying circle time!!

While Sam was in class, Abigail and I hit the pool again and enjoyed two hours of swimming after a date slice in the food court :) yum :)

More appliances...




Our Miele appliances were delivered this morning.....so now we are just waiting for the freezer to be replaced (it was damaged on delivery) and for our counters (two weeks or so they say) YAY!!!! We do have the damaged freezer at the moment as it does work - the damage was cosmetic only.

We have dishwashers now though at last woohoo (no more washing up in the bathroom for ANYONE) :) and the speed oven and best of all the COFFEE MACHINE!!!!! :) Yay - it makes frothy milk for lattes and hot chocolates and it can make all kinds of coffee's from espresso's to whatever you want! It grinds the beans for you and takes the water from the distiller direct :) Only problem is, is that its computerised like the new oven so its going to take forever to understand - like the oven!!! hahahahaha I am LOVING my new oven but its taking a while to get to learn all it can do!

Concentration....


Abigail doing her math this morning......

Don't forget I update the homeschool blog regularly...no matter what it says in the link on the right lol - if you'd like an invite to that blog then just ask :)

Strippers!!!




Abigail and Sam stripped off the old border in Sams bedroom as we are preparing to paint both his and Laurences rooms!!!

Crown atc's


Atc's being prepared to go.....they need their protective sleeves...a little note to be added......a few more extras and then they'll be off!!

Consider joining Swap-bot and you can receive fun mail in your mail box too :) So nice to open your mail box and find things other than bills and junk mail :) and they have swaps for kids too - Susannah is loving taking part in swaps - she received another swap yesterday!

I spy......



Sam spotted coyotes just now with his ultra-amazing new super-powered binoculars.....they were coming to eat us up!!!

YIKES!!!

Fabby magazine!!!





I bought this magazine last week after reading about it on Kelly Rae Robert's site (Kelly is in it, as is her sister)!!! It's such a great magazine and so inspiring! There is a wonderful article by Tim Holtz that shows you around his INCREDIBLE studio - I was in awe!!! I've never been that inspired by his work but after having a look around his studio, I have to say I was totally inspired by everything I read and saw! I got some great ideas for what will one day be my studio above the garage!

For now, this is where I 'create' - I have to say I love my little area in my bedroom - I love my view, I love that I can lock myself away and have everything within reach so I don't have to get out of my chair to get anything. I love that I don't have too much STUFF so I never feel overwhelmed by it all - I am soooooo glad I decluttered last year and gave almost all of it away to the school and started again from scratch! The school was thrilled and it did me so much good!

Right now I am enjoying collage and trying new things. It's fun :)

The best thing of all is that Susannahs class are now making ATC's and swapping them with another school!!! Isn't that wonderful?????
