Italian Sausage Pita Pizzas

nobody@vox.com(Phisch) — Wed, 04 Jun 2008 05:56:08 -0500

I tried a sample of these at the grocery and I wanted to make sure I saved the recipe because they were really good. I am guessing that how good depends very much on the tomatoes and sausage. 4 links Italian sausage 4 c. fresh spinach 4 whole whe...

And Yet More Books

nobody@vox.com(Phisch) — Fri, 15 Feb 2008 19:57:25 -0600

Another package came from Amazon today. I think we just need one more maybe because that's from a non-Amazon seller. More history books! Hehe. This time the reception was certainly warmer from both boys. We got binders for both of them to make th...

Wow. And an update.

Maybe it's the long vacation pause or maybe it's the Pizza Hut personal pan cheese pizza, but school work today was not easy! Sadly, I think it's the pizza. Granted, we've had lots of ketchup and other salicylate-laden foods so it could just be a ...

Crock Pot Split Pea Soup

nobody@vox.com(Phisch) — Wed, 02 Jan 2008 17:33:50 -0600

NOTE: Yum, yum, yum! The key to this one is a ham that you love the flavors of. I saved the bone from our Christmas dinner which was a Wellshire brand ham. Also, if I had to do it again, I'd probably limit it to 1 qt. plus 2 cups of water because ...

Impossible Cheeseburger Pie

nobody@vox.com(Phisch) — Sat, 29 Dec 2007 14:29:31 -0600

I thought I'd share what we had for Christmas dinner. Even with our diet being limited in some ways, we did enjoy a big, big, yummy meal. Since the youngest member of our family would prefer it if the only things he ate involved carbs and sugars,...
