Staying at Home, Week 5 in Los Angeles





Week 5 of Los Angeles' Shelter In Place Order.
What have I been up to? Check it out!

I've been making the pizza dough Molly Yeh recommends, Making BBQ chicken pizza, both vegetarian and non-vegetarian, using the Carolina Gold BBQ sauce from Trader Joe's.

Alex has been sewing face masks, we found the pattern here: https://hellosewing.com/face-mask-sewing-pattern/
Using the Rifle Paper Co fabric, chevron, zebra, and more.

Time lapse of us making the pizza's, Alex's is first out of the oven.

I tie dyed a t-shirt ombre, and a sweater into clouds!! Even toms shoes, too.

I had ramen for lunch more than once, and the Winchell donuts were super fresh!!

When I redid the sisal part of the cat tree, I edited a tribute to Molly Yeh in there.

I am reading Crystals for Beginners and Love is in the Earth.

I started writing my cookbook after reading Jen Sincero's You Are A Badass, and I want to model my cookbooks after Ina Garten.

My aero garden has a lot of flowers and we will have tomatoes soon!!

So proud of myself for vlogging for 35 days straight!!

What are you up to during quarantine??

Shelter In Place, Week 4 in Los Angeles




This week,  we made pizza! What's new! 
I made tuna for lunch, Tie-Dyed some t-shirts, socks, and a headband,
we had Olive Garden for Easter dinner, 

Books this week: 
Finished Rich Dad, Poor Dad and wanted to start Outliers, but instead, reached for Stay Calm...It's Just Real Estate by Egypt Sherrod. Also, started Crystals for Beginners.

I successfully ombre tie-dyed one tee, crinkle dyed two, and lightly dyed another tee. Socks came out great, but the headband needs to have another go! I want it to be more splotchy. I love the light, mint green tee, but even though the headband is a beautiful blue, I really want it to be crinkle dyed.

Also,  I made roast beef. Super easy if you have a Crock Pot. 
Just get an Eye of Round Roast, freeze it, and put it in the crock pot with Lipton Onion Soup Mix, fill it with water and cook for 6-7 hours. 

What are you cooking???

Shelter In Place, Week 3 Los Angeles



Days 16-21, April 4th - 9th, 2020
What we have been up to during the covid-19/corona virus safer at home order in Los Angeles.

We have been sewing, making pizza, ramen, and I got my IPSY! I unbox my Ipsy samples for April, and 3 out of the 5 products were FULL SIZE! The total came out to over $61.00 and Ipsy is only $10/month. Also, they come with cute, small bags, too! I use the HELIOS Livin' Lovely nail polish that came with my bag for my manicure.

I teach you how to make rice krispy treats:
6 Cups Cereal
4 Cups Marshmallows (or Peeps - we are in a quarantine, people!!)
3 Tbsp. Butter

The fabric we used for the pillows is from Rifle Paper Co. and Anna Bond is the designer. You can find her work here: https://riflepaperco.com/home-decor/f...

We made a vegan bbq chicken pizza using Quorn chck'n and Trader Joe's Carolina Gold BBQ Sauce. SOOOO GOOD!

We ended the week playing Tee Bowling - we setup golf tees as bowling pins and try to knock 'em down!

Shelter In Place, Week 2 in Los Angeles, CA





Days 7-15, March 26 - April 3, 2020
What we have been up to during the covid-19/corona virus safer at home order.

We found yeast at the grocery store and decided to try to make pizza dough and focaccia bread.
Molly Yeh of The Food Network suggested Jim Lahey's No Knead Pizza Dough: https://food52.com/recipes/16641-jim-lahey-s-no-knead-pizza-dough-margherita-pie
And we love Samin, of Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat on Netflix, her Focaccia Bread is here: https://www.saltfatacidheat.com/fat/ligurian-focaccia

Shoutout to Shelby Church, that woman's videos are beautifully edited! You can see her here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jk4JRieDWFk

Who is the blogger/person who created the easy face mask from a bandana idea? It is not mine, I saw it on the news, but was unable to get the blogger's name. They just said it was a great idea, but didn't repeat her name! Help me out and let me know who she is in the comments below. This face mask made from just a bandana and two hair ties is GENIUS! She needs to be recognized!
I know it's not super protective, but the Mayor of LA has requested people wear face coverings when out. He said they do not have to be N95, or the medical masks, but just something covering our nose and mouth.
This can work with just a piece of fabric, and maybe a safety pin, if the fabric is slippery.
