This came together in no time. She used THIS recipe for the crust, poured on some bottled spaghetti sauce, grated up the mozarella in the food processor
, added some canned olives and mushrooms, then sliced a couple of bell peppers and sprinkled them on top.And since she knew to double it, it fed all 16 of us. Thanks, 15-year-old girl! I don't know how I would manage without you! :)
P.S. I also wanted to show you the cute swallows who have built a nest against our home...
This evening I watched the mother of these 5 babies fly back and forth, back and forth, countless times, finding food for her offspring and feeding it to them one at a time. I thought of all the work I do every day and I realized that work is just part of God's plan. We all have to and should do it, whether we're a swallow or a person. Realizing this made me feel better about working hard. Just thought I'd share.

I too enjoy watching the swallows, just don't like the mess they leave underneath their nest! I allow them "one porch" in which to build their nests at my house and the rest I knock down. I know I'm mean but I'm particular about where I'm going to allow their mess. I'm ready for that 15 year old to sell another supper. Her foods always yummy!
Can I borrow the 15yo to teach my 16yo how to cook something other than tuna sandwiches? Ha.
The swallows are so cute.
The only thing that ever built a nest in my house were bees. Right in my little guys floor boards. We had to barricade his room off & he slept with me.
Good times.
Wow - that is very profound and made me think. I needed that - thanks! Although, I have to admit it actually made me feel a little guilty that I don't always work hard enough. But it's true - we should all work hard and it is part of life. Thanks for these words today!
Oops - sorry didn't mean for that to post twice! (I deleted one of them!)
The pizza looks delicious and those baby swallows brought a warm feeling to my heart .... how adorable and amazing grace the Lord's work is indeed.
By the way, I am mom to teen twins and they are a blessing too. Blessings to you and your family.
Happy SITS Friday and a merry weekend to you and yours!
Cheers,

That pizza looks yummy, but I checked the crust recipe and, is it possible that you don't need to let it raise for a couple hours at least?
Doesn't taste yeasty?
Oh, I forgot, about the hard work, I'm too slacker to agree in this case, but love you nonetheless.;)
Ale, sorry it's taken me so long to get back to you! No, you don't have to let this crust rise. That is the same thing I asked my daughter, and she said no, that she'd made it before and it turned out great. And no, it didn't taste yeasty at all!
