Playing Dress Up!

Who says only little girls play dress up! This little man found some of Daddy's gloves and Mommy's hat, and decided to mix and match. I guess his outfit just wasn't complete, but with this hat and gloves he is ready to go out on the town, or rake some leaves. Tee Hee!















Internet

Okay so I know I've been really bad about blogging lately, but I promise it's not my fault. The darn Internet has been down. I have been absorbing the beautiful weather, and completing projects. I will have a new post soon about all the projects I've been completing. I have been finding lots of inspiration here, here, and here. Check em out they are amazing and so creative.

I hope you enjoy the pics! I love this movie!!!!





"I am singing at the party...." Good times! Good times!

Still a little impatient...

Recipes

A few weeks ago I made french bread pizza at Young Women's. It is a really easy, fabulous recipe, and SOOOO much better than at the store. I also made chocolate strawberry cheesecake for Valentines day. It makes a huge cake and it tastes just like The Cheesecake Factory's. Well I hope you all enjoy!





Fabulous French Bread

1 1/2 cups water
1 TBS sugar
1 tsp salt
3 1/2 cups flour
2 tsp bread machine yeast

If you have a bread machine put the ingredients in order into the mixing bowl. Put on dough cycle. If you don't have a bread machine mix yeast sugar and water together until yeast dissolves (5-10 min). Then mix in flour and salt. Knead about 10 minutes or until elastic. Let raise 45 minutes. When dough is ready punch down and make into long loaves on greased cookie sheets. Cut diagonals on top and let raise in warm place 45 minutes. Bake at 400 F for 18-25 minutes. Drizzle olive oil on top for a golden brown loaf.



Basic Cheesecake

Preheat oven to 475 F

Crust
1 1/2 cup crushed gram crackers
1/2 cup butter
1 tsp cinnamon

Line springform pan with parchment paper. Mix together above ingredients and press into pan. Put into freezer while making the filling.

Filling
4 packages cream cheese (8oz)
1 1/4 cups sugar
1/2 cup sour cream
2 tsp Vanilla

Mix until creamy. Add:

5 eggs

Don't over mix. Mix until eggs are evenly distributed and no more. Pour on top of crust in the spring form pan. Bake for 12 minutes and then turn the oven down to 350F. Bake an additional 50-60 minutes. This is best if made the day before and cooled in the refrigerator. Top with your favorite cheesecake toppings.
