Welcome to my corner of the world!

Here's where you'll find pictures of my family, quilts and flowers, or whatever else I happen to take a picture of!

Veggie Pizza I really don't have a recipe for my veggie pizza, but here is what I do:

Take one can of refrigerated croissant dough. Divide it in half at the center and place the 2 rolls onto a baking sheet side by side. (I use my Pampered Chef Rectangle Stone). Pinch seams together, then roll out til about 8x12" Bake at 375 about 8 minutes, or til lightly browned. Remove from oven and cool. (or cheat like I did and spread the cold cream cheese onto a warm crust to make it more spreadable)

You can either flavor a block of cream cheese by mixing it with a bit of Italian Salad Dressing, or else do like I do and buy one of the tubs of flavored cream cheese. Today, I used the Spinach and Artichoke. Sundried tomato, or Garden Vegetable are the other choices my store had. Top with chopped fresh veggies of your choice. Mine today has broccoli, carrots and red onion. I've used other veggies, but these 3 are my favorite, and what I had on hand today.

Wow........ I can't believe it's been so long since I posted here. Once I found facebook, I haven't been as faithful to blogging. An update. Above, you'll see the jacket I made in a class last month. Well, I started it in a class on Sept. 3, and finished it yesterday. I had a hysterectomy on Sept. 23 and so am off work for a while and was finally able to get into the sewing room yesterday. Today I will venture to Lebanon for the first time on my own. One of my co workers is retiring and today is his last day. Customers have been invited to come and share a little celebration for him, and I don't want to miss it!

My mom came up from SC to help me out for the first few days and I really appreciated her being here. As I've gotten older, it gets harder and harder to say goodbye after we are together. I wish they lived closer. I have been on my own the last few days(well, son is here part of the time and will do any lifting or anything I ask) and I'm getting tired of sitting around and doing nothing. I'm so glad I'm able to be up and around again.
