Lazy Lady's Mac & Cheese Pizza

As a part of working from home, I have been making a concious effort to not eat crap all day, and to actually take time to prepare real food for myself. Now, while this may be super unhealthy, it isn't microwaveable, and it isn't overly processed. It also doesn't contain meat which was a big goal of mine to cut out. Some ingredients are processed, but you will see what I mean. I saw this on the travel channel a few days ago and I just knew I had to make it. It would be pretty generous to call this a recipe, but I will tell you what I did, and I highly encourage you to try it.  Basically, you will need a pizza crust, processed cheese chunk (like velveeta), slices of provolone mozzerella, cooked macaroni noodles, and shredded cheddar cheese. To assemble the pizza...first spread the melted velveeta over the crust like a sauce. Next, add the slices of cheese. Finally, top with macaroni and shredded cheese to your liking. Now bake your pizza according to the intructions on the crust. When it comes out of the oven, add more shredded cheese and allow your pizza to cool. Finally, and this is the most important step...enjoy yo pizza. I suggest adding a side of netflix and soda.  

Rose Milkshake

This milkshake is officially my new favorite dessert. It's not so much of a recipe that I am leaving here, but more of a recommendation. As in, I recommend that you go make you one of these right now. I posted this photo on my instagram awhile ago, but I forgot to post it on here until today. It is so super easy, and if you have ever made a milkshake before it should be about the same thing. You will need: Vanilla ice cream, Milk, Rose Syrup ,Blender Optional: whipped cream and sprinkles How to: Put the ice cream, milk, and rose syrup in a blender. For about one person I used 3 scoops of ice cream, about half a cup of milk, and a tablespoon of rose syrup. I included a link to buy the rose syrup that I used online, but if you have a specialty grocery store they should have it as well. I got mine at Jungle Jims in Ohio. After you blend them all together, transfer to a fancy glass and add the whipped cream and sprinkles. Top it all off with a straw and you are ready to enjoy. I would love to try this with homemade ice cream and whipped cream, if anyone tries that I would love to hear about it! Let me know what you think! Enjoy!

Day Trip

Yesterday, my family and I made a trip to Columbus for the day. We had so much fun, and I got to do some great shopping. There were so many good deals at Forever 21, and I also did some shopping at H&M and Anthropologie. I got these fantastic cat socks at Forever 21 to add to my always growing collection of animal themed clothing. I also got some great cups at Anthropologie. Some of my other purchases were some dresses and a hair clip. I had such a great day spending time with my family.
When I came home I whipped up a new recipe that I am absolutely obsessed with. I made strawberry soup and I have eaten it so many times since then. I found the recipe in a book that I have, but I found this recipe that is similar, the only difference is that I added some orange juice to mine. It is so good and is great even without the croutons.
All in all it was a great day full of fun and family.

Cupcake Date

One of the great things about Thanksgiving is seeing those people that you don't get to see the rest of the year. I am officially on break now from school, and I am fulling taking advantage of it. Today, I met a friend for lunch at a local deli market, where we purchased our cupcakes. We then took our cupcakes to the park where we took pictures in the gazebo. It was such a nice day today we just couldn't resist! I wore a simple outfit of jeans, blouse, and cardigan. An easy outfit for a day of antique shopping!

After that, we headed to the antique district for some shopping. I am working my own booth at a local craft fair next Monday, and I had to pick up a couple of things. I bought a few new books, some for Christmas presents, and some for a book box which I am hoping to make for the show.

I am really excited about the show, I am currently working on some scarves and
bowties and such. I am hoping to get as much done as possible before we head out for various Thanksgiving meals later this week. I will hopefully post some photos of what I am making for the show. I am hoping that it all works out, especially the book box!
