Balsamic Glazed Pizza

To the top of your favorite homemade cheese pizza (Ina Garten’s dough is my favorite), add this balsamic glaze. Such a great flavor combo.

Balsamic glaze: one part sugar to one part balsamic vinegar. Heat on stove until slightly boiling. Remove from heat and let cool.

Home Updates

In the past couple months I’ve found myself post-pregnancy nesting… I’m home so much more now that I notice all the little places or things to update. I love being at home everyday and running our “household.” It feels fulfilling in a weird way, though once I finish it all one day, I have to start over and do it again the next. Sigh.

Back to the house; here are some of our updates:

New pillows for our chairs and new clock (we’ve been looking for pillows for over a year; so glad to find some we like):P1040301

New kitchen table (our old one was an oak/painted black hand-me-down we got 4 years ago; we looked for a new one for about 6 months... though we liked our old one, it came time to have more than a 4-seater :):P1040346

My favorite part is the detailing on the legs:P1040347

Cube shelf in our bedroom (thank you IKEA; inexpensive and very functional):P1040345

We added the cute stuffed dog and “E” to the nursery just after Emerson was born:photo

And just recently framed some pictures for E’s room: P1040355

Now we just need to get some paint in our guest room. It has been neglected.
