Living & Dining Room

Hey! Our house is really starting to come together!We just need a few more things (like end tables and shelves) to help get things a little more organized. But it really feels like a home. We love it here!


Ummm....


This is all so beautiful, Sister!  You've done a beautiful job photographing and editing your pics!  BUT, what we REALLY want to see now is what your dining room table and hutch look like!!!  Get to work!

And while you're at it... we ALSO want to see that cool Pottery Barn look-alike desk that dad helped you build...

Mozzarella Sticks - Yummy


Hello, friends! Things are going great here! I've been getting to do a lot of cooking lately. Yesterday, I made some homemade mozzarella sticks for the first time! They turned out so well. Mr. Marine told me so (but he is especially kindY). Here is how I made them: I cut some mozzarella into strips, I dipped them in egg, rolled them in a cracker mixture (crushed saltine crackers with pepper and pizza seasoning), then back in the egg and then one last time into the cracker mixture, then I put them in the freezer for a while (over an hour). Then, I fried them in some vegetable oil (between 1 and 2 minutes on each side). Voila! Some delicious mozzarella sticks.
