Recipe Review
Today’s
Recipe and Location: Pizza
Potato Skins
Found
in: The Pioneer Woman blog
I figured out that there are
250 calories per serving, if 2 half potato servings are made. (Please note that the calorie
counts vary depending on the specific brands of ingredients that you choose to
use.)
I like potato skins, but after reading this recipe I had my doubts
that this would be a favorite. I really did enjoy this meal. I adore pizza and
that might be the catalyst for loving this potato. I also like the texture of the mix of flavors. I didn’t add
any of the miscellaneous toppings Ree suggested because I was happy with just
the pepperoni. Next time, I will add black olives because they are so darn
good.
Random Reflections
Yard Art
Every garden should have some type of
bench. Now this bench is too little to actually sit on, but it makes it own
statement in the garden. Donna and I were shopping for garden items in Sycamore
when I came across this little cement bench. I fell in love and bought it right
away. It is extremely heavy because it is made of cement, but it came in three
pieces so it wasn’t too hard to move.
I
do leave it out all year around, and I even love it when it has a tall tower of
snow. Benches come in all shapes and sizes and are a great addition to any
garden.

Helpful Home Hints
One
thing everyone should accomplish in the summer months is thoroughly cleaning
the garage. I have the perfect source for this one since Nicole is what I would
refer to as a professional in garage cleaning 101. Here are her steps:
Nicole
firmly stated that every single thing must come out of the garage prior to
cleaning it. That includes everything on shelves, in cabinets, and hanging on
the wall.
The
next step is to haul out your power washer, add soap to it and clean the floor
until it is spotless.
Once
you have finished with the power washer, use a broom or squeegee to remove
as much of the water as is possible.
Cobwebs
are the next thing to tackle. All cobwebs and spider webs need to be removed
from the walls, ceiling, and corners of the room.
The
most important step is next. Bug
spray needs to be applied to the corners, walls, and around the base perimeter
of the floor. This will greatly reduce a fall influx of insects into your home.
The
final step is to individually wipe off everything BEFORE you return it to its
place in the garage.
You
now have a garage that is the ultimate in cleanliness.
