That face

Apparently there is one thing that I can cook very well. It is a recent discovery and one that makes my dear hubby very happy in his tummy.
We have decided that the coming of hard times is a big deal and that because of impending doom followed by wonderful millennium we need to learn to make things from scratch. So I can't just go buy the ready made dough at the store. Our first experiment was pizza, which i made with my own two hands.
This is the wonder dough that my husband has loved so much. Its a Garlicy Herby type pizza... and I can't give the recipe because i make it different every time... and i eyeball everything after using a recipe that i can't find anymore. However AJ can't get enough of it!

So today i was really excited to spend the day on the couch doing nothing and hopefully getting away with not making anything since i did rolls yesterday (and rolls are so much harder than they look). But then he made that face.
You know the one... the I know you really don't want to do this but I would love you forever if you do is for me face. I'm pretty sure that at some point while the woman is planning out invitations and venues and everything else for the wedding... the men are taught this face, and the knowledge of sweet talking that comes with it. Because they always know exactly what to say to get you to do whatever it is.
This morning it was dough. Tomorrow it might be laundry or a back rub.
However it really got to me. I CAN MAKE PIZZA DOUGH! Something I'm good at that he actually will request of me. THIS IS THE MOMENT I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR OUR ENTIRE MARRIAGE!
Not to be confused with the request for Brownies.. which is AJ's favorite dessert (instead of cake at our wedding we had brownies) because he will eat those no matter what. Even if they're not great (but who can go wrong with the box stuff anyways right?)
Ego boost for the Leola. He actually likes something i make.. and the best part is that I like it too. Little known factoid about me is that I am in fact a picky eater though i have grown into some foods since becoming a married person.
Anyways i just thought that i would share that little exciting tidbit with you since it was like this fantastic HIGH for me.
