Quote of the Day: If I don’t create something soon, I’m going to explode! – Mary Aalgaard, after computer catastrophes, time away, and a house full of distractions, I mean boys!
So, I invited myself over to my friends’ house and made fruit pizza. Yes, it really IS as good as it looks. Cookie bottom, cream cheese “sauce” and your favorite fruit. I’m licking my fingers – and the pan when every morsel has been scraped away.
I’m still working my way through The Artist’s Way, and one of our tasks was to make a list of 20 things you like to do. Making fruit pizza was #12.
1. write
2. play piano
3. eat pizza (only because I was at a pizza place at the time and dreaming of #12)
4. take pictures
5. attend live concerts (listen to music)
6. travel
7. nap
8. go out for coffee
9. walk
10. Group Power (weight lifting class at the Y)
11. bike
12. make fruit pizza (And eat it and share it)
13. ride horse
14. make things, like journals (see pic below)
15. knit
16. teach
17. do Kids’ theatre
18. act
19. sing
20. laugh
I’m presenting at a women’s retreat day at a local church on Saturday on keeping a prayer journal. Here’s a photo of what I’m making.
If my computers had been in operation, I would have written a tribute to my journaling mentor earlier this week. Here she is at Mount Carmel gazing out at the lake, soaking in all the goodness of our week together. I’ll tell you more about her later.
I’ve also been to scout camp, back home for a visit with family and extended family, and to the grocery store about 47 times since the beginning of June.
Oh, and while I was away, I tweaked my blog. See the flag counter? I was excited to see that someone from South Africa stopped by. Hello! I love being part of the global community.
Journaling Prompt: List your top 20 things you like to do. Then, pick one and go do it!!
I’m doing it right now, Mary!
Writing a new proposal!!
Ate chocolate an hour or so ago!
Sigh. Then will gather up stuff for the church missionary garage sale. DO NOT LIKE.
Help me, Lord!
P.S. LOVED that pizza and plan to copy it!!!!

Excellent, Patti, especially the part about the chocolate!
Great pictures….. yummy and fun looking. I do want to start inviting people over more often to visit. Will do! :O)
That pizza looks yummy and makes a perfect summer dessert.
I LOVE fruit pizza! Yummy!
One of my favorite things to do is nap. Love, love, love a good nap. 🙂
I love fruit pizza AND naps, and lots of other things on your list. And I see that my face popped up the minute I showed up here. Wow, crazy. And very cool that someone from halfway around the world came by. Isn’t it cool how the world shrinks, in a good way, through blogging and other ways of connecting?
Good luck on your journal session, Mary, I know you are going to do a superb job. Then, it’s play time! 🙂
oohhh Fruit Pizza YUM! Veggie pizza is a fav of mine. Your blog looks great! Love th flag counter. Where did you get that?
You can get Flag Counter by clicking my the banner on my blog. It is SO COOL. Love seeing where people live who read my blog.
Roxane, the world shrinks and grows at the same time. See you soon!
Fruit pizza … this has serious potential. Our kids would love to make this and eat it.

That flag counter is cool!
I love your to do list. My seems to involve “attempting to market my book” and “sleep.”
