Marriage

Married love, enduring through a thousand vicissitudes, seems to me the most beautiful of miracles, even if the most common.
—Francois Mauriac

That's how I am feeling about marriage. This is partially in response to the daily question- "How's married life?" :). It's awesome-thanks for asking!

Today, I am grateful for the craziness of life, for naps, life never staying the same, friends, family, support and GOD!

So this 'being a wife' thing has gotten me pretty domestic, pretty quick. When people have been asking me how married life is going (almost a month now!), simply said: "Great!" and "Fun!"

I have been cooking almost every night and it's been really fun with no repeats so far! Some nights are more lazy like chicken nuggets and broccoli and other nights are like grilled salmon, asparagus w/ olive oil, toasted sourdough w/ feta and olive oil. Yum!

I keep thinking of new ideas and was given so many great cookbooks for wedding gifts (I wanted them!) I haven't even delved into the cookbooks yet.

I thought I'd share a really easy "recipe" I threw together (& made up) last night that I think would be great for kids, college kids, whoever!

Take pita pockets (whole wheat, flavored, whatever you prefer-I used whole wheat), spoon sauce on top (I used a basil tomato sauce in a jar), add whatever cheeses you like (I used a bag of shredded 'pizza cheese'), then add whatever toppings you like on pizza (we used turkey pepperoni, a sprinkling of bacon bits, lots of green peppers, cherry tomatoes cut up, and cooked hamburger). Put in a toaster oven- put on Toast setting between medium and dark and let cook.

It was quite yummy and very quick to make.

Please share some of your favorite easy recipes :)!!

Today, I am grateful for a weekend with family and friends, for a great hubby, for lovely days, a wonderful last night with oldie but goody cancer friends, for everything God allows for in life.
