{pizza week} Feeding Teenagers w/ Doughboys

Our house was filled with roving hordes of adolescent boys; boys with skateboards, boys with guitars and drums, boys with spray cans and paint brushes, boys with movie cameras, boys with paint ball guns and nerf guns,…

{recap} FSC SWAPPERS 1st Food Swap
Our first food swap was Wednesday evening and boy, was it a good time. I was slightly nervous as I’d never been to a throw-down swap before, let alone hosted one.
