To me, pizza dough is one of the EASIEST breads to make and it is great for make-ahead lunches to freeze. In addition to pizza, you can use it for calzones, stromboli, hot pockets, cheese-stuffed rolls, pizza wheels, and more! I have been milling my grains for a couple of years now. There's no turning back! I love all the nutrition and amazing flavor. I use THIS RECIPE in my bread machine, which makes it even easier. I also suggest THIS COOKBOOK if you want reliable freshly milled ... View the Post

The Strathmore art journal sketchbook has toned paper, which can help with the white blank paper problem that every ... View the Post
Impressionistic Floral Oil Pastel Painting | Sketchbook Art Process & VIDEO
I love loose, impressionistic florals that convey a softness and grace. I think flowers are (among other reasons) God's gift to us. They are fragrant, colorful, soft, and have such a lovely variety of shapes. He said Himself that King Solomon was not even dressed as well as the flowers!

I decided to add a light gray background that I think makes the ... View the Post
