The House Poet

Last night after a pretty hot walk with my family, we came home and got ready to eat pizza! Yay! My dad also made some wheat bread for us and an ailing client. Doesn't it look cute? As I mentioned in my other blog post, my dad decided to take a break from making calzones, so he went back to making normal pizzas last night! Yum! Above is my dad's pizza with ground beef, fresh mozzarella, basil leaves, and olives. Here is my huge pizza, complete with an egg! :) Otherwise, it has the same toppings on it as my dads, minus olives. I never cared much for olives. My pizza was very tasty; the ground beef was a nice change from ham or pepperoni, so that was good. Even the fresh mozarella tasted really good and was all gooey! I love the addition of the fresh basil leaves from our plant too. :) And lastly, here is my sister's pizza! :) Hers has the same as my dads, mnius the olives. She doesn't like the idea of putting an egg on pizza. :) She wanted me to take a picture of her ...

Yesterday was a typical Sunday full of cleaning and cooking. I did laundry, helped make a roast for lunch, and worked on figuring out my financial aid for next semester, among other things. We also made a trip to my aunt's house to pick some things up. A family friend had left a couple bags of clothes for me, and my aunt had a whole bunch of awesome coupons and tickets to give us! She gave my sister and I 5 round trip Golden Gate ferry boat tickets, and a book of one-way MUNI bus tickets! :D This morning my sister and I were working on planning a fun trip to San Francisco and then to Sausalito by ferry boat. So, we'll see how that goes! My sister had another moment of disliking all the breakfast food we had this morning so I found a mix for strawberry muffins in our magic cupboard. They turned out to be really cute! Doesn't the top of the muffin look like a gnome's hat? :) They were sweet, and I actually liked the strawberry bits in them; they tasted more like strawberr...
