It's pizza week here!

I am thankful it is pizza week here this week. Each night, I will make a pep and half cheese pizza for the not so daring and then a whole pizza of some goodliness. This is what the pep (and I threw some left over breakfast sausage on it) and cheese looks like.
I got the crusts from Aldi, as well as the cheese and most everything else. Turned out pretty good. Here is the veggie version: onion, mushroom, alfredo sauce, black and green olives. YUM.
It is really tasty and I am hoping to have leftovers for breakfast.

In other news:
Husband took me to our VFW for drinks Fri night before we met our friends out for drinks. Every Fri night our VFW has a steak fry (it's not fried as I thought, but actually grilled!) and as I watched the one lone woman with her two small kids clean up, I could not help myself, I helped her clear all the dishes and helped in the kitchen.

Guess who is now a member of the Ladies Auxiliary of Post 4931? You betcha, it's me. I am going to go in after work on Thursdays to help prep for the Friday Steak "fry".

And I got lots of free drinks which explains the shortened visit with our friends. For that , I apologize!

Tomorrow, Husband will march in our parade and we will be there to cheer him on. I met so many great people at his post Fri night and I am excited to see them all march. Please support your local Veteran's, their posts are dwindling because of lack of support.

Middle child has been gone all weekend with a friend and it is kind of hard for me to not see him all the time. Daughter has her friend (we call her our other daughter) here for the day, but it doesn't make up for Middle being gone. I guess we are at that age with him that he would rather be with friends than family. I suppose I should be grateful it didn't happen sooner!!

What are your kids asking for Christmas? Daughter wants ridiculously expensive stuff: what 15 year old wants TIFFANY jewelry??? I told her she is getting a 2 dollar charm bracelet from Michael's and she can put her Tiffany bobbles on that. The boys don't really know what they want. We are thinking of a Kindle Fire as a family gift. Middle will be on the road with basketball for the next two months, any good gift ideas for him?

I bought myself, oh check that, HUSBAND bought me a vintage looking eternity ring for my bday. It is faux diamonds but will be nice to wear to work instead of my nice jewelry (right now, I wear no jewelry and I feel weird without a ring on my left). I can't wait to get it. He has it so easy ; I buy it cheap, he wraps it.

I hope everyone is doing well. Thanksgiving will be here before we know it then Christmas. Any good ideas you have for tech nuts kids for Christmas, let me know. Youngest wants more book, god love him!

Have a good evening!
