za's and goodies!

So its been a really long time since I've had time to cook anything, and I really didn't have time tonight,  but I've been craving pizza so bad. With the wedding coming up and my workout kicked into high gear, my conscience just wouldn't be able to make it so I decided to make a veggie pizza:

Usually I make it on a big flat pizza pan but this time I did it in a small round pan and made a deep dish. It was sooo good. One of my favorite things to do when I make pizza is to put cornmeal on the bottom of the crust. I don't know why you do this, but I think its fantastic. I put so many veggies (mushrooms, black olives, onions, green red and yellow bell peppers) on it that just one slice filled me up. But i also had some roasted garlic hummus on wasa crackers while i was making it.

I also received the most thoughtful gift yesterday for absolutely no reason from the sweetest boy! He got me a new coffee cup and a HUGE candy bar!

Yes, its a little contradictory because I drink the coffee to help me work out and the chocolate will completely undo my workout.. but thats kind of how I do things anyways. I love getting presents for no reason! I think they're better than getting them on your birthday or Christmas.

Awww... look at how sweet my boys we're being while they were waiting on their dinner tonight:

Duke was using Apollo's rear as a pillow. This is so amazing because this is the first time they've ever looked like they purposely wanted to be close to each other. Please pay no attention to the upside down light plugged into the wall behind them. I'm sure it got turned around during a game of "Duck Duck jump on the couch, run in circles, lets Goose Hillary in the butt while shes not looking".

I have to take a moment to do a bit of advertising. I've been giving Duke antibiotics for the past few weeks in an attempt to clear up a skin condition he came home from the the kennel with. I started out giving him half a piece of cheese, with the pills rolled up inside, but he kept picking the pills out and just eating the cheese. When I went to an equine/pet supply store in Mountain Home over the thanksgiving holiday I found these:

They're moldable dog treats with a hole in the center to put the pills in. I think this is just too cool. And a lot nicer than prying open their mouth and shoving the pill down the hatch and praying it makes it. I think the bag was about $7 dollars and comes with 30.

Ok I'm going to study for my next to last final.

(which probably means watching the shows I missed last week on Hulu until I fall asleep).
