I'm off to soften my heart this weekend in Yosemite. :)

What is you favorite food?
Recently, I have found that my favorite food is one that I can alter to my mood and be most creative with, but one that does not take a lot of time and energy to make if I can't give it. It can also be made healthy and can use a variety of ingredients.
What am I talking about?
Pizza!
So many options!
The crust: store-bought wheat or regular, pieces of bread that you can toast first to make mini pizzas, bagels, flatbread, large tortillas toasted, or your own from scratch. What else could you use?
Sauce: Some of many include: tomato, pesto, garlic cream, or even barbecue sauce.
Toppings: Anything goes - even potatoes (if you pair it with pesto and rosemary). My favorite toppings are artichokes, mushrooms, and spinach. If I want salmon, I pair it with red onion and barbecue sauce. Make sure you cook your toppings separately first if your crust is already cooked. Then top them on and cover with...
Cheese: mozarella always works, but mixing cheeses is fine too. I like mozarella and parmesan, and sometimes a little goat cheese.
Unleash your creative pizza-maker-self!

Someone's Birthday
It is my friend's birthday today, and when I called her, she seemed a little sad. It wasn't very special feeling, she said. She had to go to class, ate bad sushi, and no one sang to her. I sang to her over the phone and told her she had to light a candle so that she could blow it out. No excuses for not having a candle on your birthday - even if you dislike cake. She really appreciated my forcefulness :)
Sometimes, feeling happy is about making other people feel great. Especially on their birthday. Remember, birthdays are very special to people. It really is so easy to make a phone call, send a card, or make sure you can add just a little cheer to their day. Don't leave it to someone else...because they may only send a text.
