My experience breastfeeding

I just want to say that I am enjoying breastfeeding. I love the great connection between us. I am amazed at how much a little one can grow just from milk from me. It wasn't easy at first especially with all the complications I experienced with the birth and after that. I did waiver and almost gave up and I was one who was determined to MAKE it work out (my pre-baby plan anyway). The nurses were encouraging. But it was my mom who really helped me get through the toughest parts and knew what I needed to do. It was one of the only things that worked out, which is one of the best things to have had work out.

Until next time...

Better pizza




I love knowing what I am going to make for supper each day. I wrote on a calendar for the month and bought everything.

Here is my first pizza using dough made from scratch. I made a few batches and froze them. I thawed this one out and let it rise. I used a bit too much alfredo sauce though. I would like to make an easy alfredo or white sauce instead of the jar stuff. I used canned chicken and added season-all and diced up some tomato. Of course I topped it off with a few different cheeses. Blake and I like this one. Score!
