Am I becoming demositcated?

Mike and I decided to start eating at home more.  There are many reasons but the biggest was to save money and eat healthier.  I have never liked to cook that much but I have always loved baking.  However, when we made this decision to eat more at home my hubby was too busy to cook due to his new job. Therefore, if we were going to eat I had to kick it into gear.  
To my surprise I love it.  I have truly had fun researching what we are going to eat and how I can make different meals out of leftovers.  Tonight we had homemade barbecue chicken pizza that was leftover barbecue from last night.  Yes, you heard right that it was homemade, which included the pizza dough.  I should of taken a picture so you could see how pretty and easy. 
I made the dough and then rolled it out and added barbecue sauce, barbecue chicken, red onions, mozzarella and cilantro.  It was yummy and healthy as the crust was using wheat flour.

On another front I have so many craft ideas and not enough time.  My to do list is getting longer for my vacation.  I want to paint the living room, add fabric backing to our bookshelves in the living room, new curtains for the dining room, recover the dining room chairs and decorate my study.

I will definitely post pictures of progress soon but I leave you with some eye candy.


This would be a great seating in our sun room..

Love the rug, books on the bookshelves..
