I love fleece. It is soft, doesn’t fray when cut, and there are many projects with fleece that don’t require sewing. Last Fall, I posted about a No-Sew Fleece Poncho. Now our winter bodies are ready for a fleece scarf to keep the chill away from our necks. Lucy’s saying, “It’s cooooold”.

Oh yes! Homemade pizza is the only way to go. There are a few non-chain pizzerias that compare, but there is something so yummy and homey about making it yourself. I got the recipe from my sister Sue, who got this recipe from a fabulous Chef named Jason Hess, who got it from Wolfgang Puck while working with him. [...] Continue Reading…
