BLOG ANGEL REVEAL

As you might of seen in an earlier post, I linked up with Craftbotic and The Dreamy Meadow to participate in Blog Angels.

We link up with other bloggers to become a secret encourager.  Its a great way to get to know other bloggers and to try and help them do what they do best!

Today is the big reveal!

DRUM ROLL PLEASE

Please meet


 Liz 


over at Simple Nests

Ironically enough, Liz was planning a trip to the city (New York City), where I live, during the time I was following/stalking her.  I did my best to have others give advice and support her trip.
I also spent some time tweeting about her and linking her up on my site.
One of my favorite posts of hers was her post on Pizza, When sucky days hit, make pizza.  I mean How can you not love a post centered around pizza?
I definitely recommend you stopping by Simple Nests and get to know Liz.
If you are interested in being a Blog Angel for August, I encourage you to stop by Craftbotics.

DIY: What I have been up to!

I feel like I have been missing. I don't get a chance to truly blog these days.  I have been working various temp jobs during my off days which means I work full 6-7 day weeks.  I actually enjoy the temp jobs so I am not complaining. It just doesn't leave me with much energy at the end of the day.  Atleast not mental energy.

But I wanted to show you some things that i have been working on lately. Most of these are from the weekend, but a couple are from the last 2 weeks.  If you want the recipes, let me know.  I'll link where I can but I have made some variations to most of these.

Cast Iron Pizza: I saw the idea on Pinterest, but I modified it significantly. I would normally be all up for making my own crust but it has to sit for 2 hours and it was a last minute decision.  I bought canned uncooked crust.  Grated some Mozzarella cheese and sprinkled goat cheese on top of that.  Then i grilled up some fried onions on my cast iron griddle.  And placed those on top. MMM.  Then I heated the pizza on the stove top (at high) for 3-5 minutes. Then I placed the skillet in the oven for 10-15 minutes until the crust was golden brown and cooked through.  This was an amazing dish. You can vary your ingredients to your liking.
