Recipe

Easy, Peazy Pizza Pie

Mister LOVES pizza. Here is an easy, quick "homemade" 3 Meat pizza recipe.

1 whole wheat thin crust
1 Boboli pre-packaged Original Pizza Sauce
1 package Sargento Reduced Fat 4 Cheese Mexican shredded cheese
3 slices turkey bacon (I like Louis Rich)
1 1/3lb. preformed frozen beef patty (I get mine in a 6 lb. package from Costco)
1/2 package Hormel pepperoni

Pile it all on, stick it in the oven, YUM!

If you want to see the nutrition stats for this go to www.myfitnesspal.com. It's labeled Oonafey Home Made- Three Meat Pizza. The nutrition is specific the brands I have in the recipe.

You would think with a whole wheat crust, reduced fat cheese, and turkey bacon that it would be borderline healthy... It's really not. But it's good, and it's satisfying, and it's still better for you than take-out.

Resolution Update

A sub-resolution I forgot to mention under the main resolution of FOLLOW THRU:

Hook up the wireless dohickey my mother bought us for Christmas last year

I am happy to say that is accomplished! Yay! We only have ONE phone jack in our whole house and considering the previous owners concreted in the entire ceiling in the basement, running more would be problematic. To say the least. That one jack is in the dining room, behind my bakers cabinet. We have been sitting at the bakers cabinet to use the internet since July... Well, no more. I am currently sitting in my newly pink living room, in a comfy chair. HOORAH!!

Resolution

I don't usually "do" resolutions because I have a difficult time sticking with anything for more than a day or so. I have ADHD and I don't take any meds anymore and I am not going to use it as an excuse to be lazy and scatterbrained anymore. So I have one all-encompassing resolution:

FOLLOW THRU.

On anything, everything, whatever...

I need to finish the curtains for our kitchen.
Make the balloon shades for the dining room.
Put together another bookshelf for the bedroom.
Put together the Expedit for my "office/craft room".
Lose 20 pounds.
Exercise more.
Paint the bedroom.
Paint the "office/craft room".
Finally get all the prints and photos framed that I have been buying at art shows for the last 10 years.
STOP BUYING MORE CRAP until I finish all this stuff.

All of these things fit under the FOLLOW THRU header, because they are all things that should already be done and are not because I am a lazy bastard. So, we'll see how it goes.

On the plus side, I do have the dining room and the living room painted.

Monkey Love

I call my dogs "Monkey". Both of them, to their faces, when I want them to do something. I am sure it is quite confusing for them. Someday I will learn to call them by their names, until then welcome to Monkey Mondays!

See the wall in the background? That's a sneak peek of our new Living Room color! It looks so fab with the fireplace. I just have to wait for the curtain rods to arrive and the basic room with be all put together. Yay!

Hope you all had a lovely Christmas

We sure did!

We went to my brother and S-I-L's house for immediate family Christmas.

My 2.5-year-old niece.

My 6-year-old niece.

We had Christmas at Misters parents house on Christmas Eve.

 

His mothers tree. 

 

And my grandmothers on Christmas Eve and Christmas day.

 

My Oma's tree. 

 

On Christmas Eve we light the Firesangboulie(I have no idea how to spell that). 

You put cheap red wine in a punch bowl, balance a sugar cone at the top, pour Bacardi 151 over the sugar cone, and light that baby on fire! Tasty! I have a video, but my iPhoto doesn't want to load it. I also have a lot more pictures of various things, but they won't upload... Hm.

  

Website

I am not allowed to shop at Wal-Mart. My dad is/was union, worked for A-B for 30+ years, and my fiance is union, works for Missouri American Water for 12+ years. Apparently the unions have something against Wal-Mart for their refusal to pay decent wages, give good healthcare, allow humane sick time, etc.... Anywho, my cousin just directed me to the funniest website I have seen in a very long time: www.peopleofwalmart.com. I am not generally a judgmental person, but some of these people are just so ridiculous you wonder what they see when they look in the mirror.

I was/am not always the most normal person. I had guy friends in high school who wore skirts. But I am pretty sure none of them wore tails. Or high heels.

 

 

When I was about 12 or 13 I wanted to be a boy so I could cut crazy designs in my hair and my beard, ala  Sam from Clarissa Explains it All. Also know as "THE BEST SHOW OF ALL TIME", when I was younger, of course. But this lady really takes it about 120 steps TOO FAR! Maybe she didn't check her rearview before she left the "salon"?

Just "Wow". No other words are needed. I am sorry, but this wouldn't be appropriate if she was 13 or weighed 120 lbs. Daisy dukes, half a cheerleading costume, and socks with sandals? Never okay.

Check it out. Seriously.
