Robin's Quick Pizza Crust

  This recipe was originally given to me by chef Amy about 10 years ago and I've changed it only a little! Ingredients for 1 pizza crust:   Combine 1 cup warm water
                                                               1 Tb. sugar
                                                                2 1/4 tsp. yeast
                                                 Set aside.
                         In a separate bowl, add 2 1/2 c. flour, 1 tsp. salt, and your favorite herbs and spices. I like lots of Garlic powder, basil, oregano, parsley and rosemary. I smell the flour mixture and when the combo smells delicious, I'm done adding. Real scientific right? :)

           Lastly, combine the yeast mixture with the dry ingredients and add 3 Tbs. of olive oil. Knead it all together until it's elastic and no longer sticky( add flour as needed ). No rising time necessary. Just roll out and cover with your usual sauce and other toppings and bake! About 400 degrees , about 20 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Yum!

             

Shirt half fail...

Today's project was to make a shirt that I didn't have to wear an undershirt with.  So I started with one I had already and cut out it's shape in a pair of scrub pants

Scrub pants cut along the seam

Shirt I used as a pattern

Folded in half to make sure it was even(is this redundant?)

Cut off sleeves

Cut new sleeves to put on

made neckline

More than half way there!(or so I thought)

Bahahah.  I tried it up to myself to make sure it would be a good fit and thought, this is so itty bitty.  So I tried it on....and it was.  I had to cut the front in half to make it fit.  Yikes.  Next time I will definitely take into account the stretchiness of the material.  Why didn't I go find a tutorial???  And yes, my hair was awesome that night.

So I was unwilling to give up and chose another shirt to cut apart and make into the front of my new one.

Here are the sleeves

Pin on, then sew

Tada!  If you want to know what I was going for you can take out the middle piece and picture it that way.  I still like it, but now I have to wear a shirt under it.  Bahah.  Half fail...Maybe I will add something on top later.  Any suggestions?
