Holiday Preview

We were blessed to be able to keep Austin in Greenwood for the first time over the weekend.

Now I am busy preparing for my other angels to arrive for Thanksgiving, I can't wait to see them. We will greatly miss Sarah, Eric and Lida who will not be joining us this year. But we are going to be able to see them soon.

So stay tuned in the near future for lots more photos of all my angels, each one is soooo special to me and PePaw, we just can't get enough!

Our weekend with Austin just a little taste of our holiday preview and what it will be like with our other three babies.

Pepaw's do amazing things with their granchildren.

She loved the apples dipped in caramel but notice her cookie cereal. She really liked them dipped in caramel. Pepaw's can also be bad influences to their grandchildren.

Making her own pizza for supper.

I had to explain that we needed to cook it first. The cheese was frozen yuk!

She was so excited when it came out of the oven and ate really good.

Cool Pepaw!

When all else fails it's Elmo time!

So yummy!!!!

Yes, we stayed in our Pajamas all day on Saturday and why not she wanted to and so Pepaw and I joined her.



Thanks for stopping by y'all and please come again soon.

My Easy Gluten-Free Pizza

I had a nice time with Syd (our grand-dog) and I am now back in the Delta with Steve. It is sooo humid and hot here so I'm not sure that I will be doing a lot of cooking. Tonight for supper we had homemade chicken salad and green salad with either ice cream or watermelon for dessert. When it is this hot we prefer meals to help us cool down.


During my time at home for breakfast one morning I had one of my favorite gluten-free meals. "Van's" frozen blueberry Waffles (the plain are also good). They are delicious and you can't get any easier! I buy them at the local Kroger but will only allow my self to have them a few times a year due to the calories.

After Steve got home for supper one night I made a gluten-free pizza. We had rather have the gluten-free version than the regular now. Of course it's been ages since I ate a regular pizza but Steve assures me that my gluten-free is better and I believe him! Here is my EASY gluten-free pizza way.


I use "Gluten-Free Pantry" french bread and pizza mix. It makes two 12" x 14" pizzas, so I use one immediately and freeze one for later use. This takes time the first time around but the second pizza is easy!


I make it according to package directions using my food processor to mix it.


The dough is a little hard to work with so I smooth it in the pan using a moist spatula.

After baking the crust until it is no longer shiny and starts to firm up I spread gluten-free pizza sauce from a jar (Kroger brand etc) and ground sausage, cooked and drained. I top it with shredded pizza cheese.


I have recently talked to Ben and Ashia and it seems that Syd misses us, well I really think it's Steve she misses. That crazy dog loves Steve, you should see her when she sees him outside the house are hears him drive up. She goes nuts! If you are holding her you had better put her down fast because she spins off on you running to get to him and in the meantime you look like you have been in a cat fight. But I can understand I love Steve too!

Have a good week and remember it doesn't have to be difficult to eat Gracefully Gluten-Free!
