The girls don't use it anywhere as much as they use the actual pizza bits themselves. But it gets some use from time to time, whenever they feel like setting up the entire pizzeria (as opposed to just the pizzas as part of an all-service cafe that also offers desserts, beverages and produce).LiErhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13022645291278425282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540761711646097949.post-64811906379807370682014-01-28T11:41:25.774-06:002014-01-28T11:41:25.774-06:00Any word on what happened to the pizza making mach...Any word on what happened to the pizza making machine? <br /><br />All that creating, and still have the time to raise kids, run a household, blog and handle a million other things you do - truly i am awed to no end by your example.

I enjoyed every word (and photo!!!!!! of course!!!) in it, and I appreciated your honesty about what works and what doesn't for your kids. Your toy collection is amazing, and I want to be like you when I grow up (haha). As a mom of a two-year-old (and another one on the way in June), I look in awe and admiration at the amazing things you have created for your girls' play (and learning!). I will be referring back to this post (already learned a lesson about the playhouses, which I want to make for my girl). You've also convinced me that I must make some felt food! I have always loved it, and it's good to know that it is so worth it! :)<br />Thanks again,<br />Natalie (QSOgirl)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540761711646097949.post-82731364551883008842013-12-31T07:28:14.484-06:002013-12-31T07:28:14.484-06:00Hi,

I am going to Hong Kong soon to visit my 1 1/2 year old <br />granddaughter who has limited speech at the moment . Since I was a speech therapist many years ago, I was looking for unusual items to bring to illicit speech. I am having so much fun creating some of your projects for her and greatfully appreciate your generous linking to other websites/blogs that would help.<br />Thank you so very much. I have become a "follower"<br />Have a happy and healthy New Year.<br /><br />Joan<br />Harrison 275https://www.blogger.com/profile/17120202988066219178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540761711646097949.post-7205062626345310902013-12-30T09:09:50.026-06:002013-12-30T09:09:50.026-06:00I agree...WOW!

Of course, it got derailed because we've had a rash of visits from family, and that is a wonderful reason for a project to be derailed. I do have an Etsy shop gift that I am very excited about :)<br /><br />Thank you for sharing all of your ideas with us - I find them tremendously inspirational! That fabric garden was the post that first really caught my eye, all those years ago. And there are so many other things you have made that I simply adore. I don't make anywhere near as many things as you do, but reading your blog always makes me smile, and you have taught me several things about sewing - and drawing! I am very grateful!<br /><br />Wishing you and your family a truly delightful Christmas - and looking forward to seeing what you made. <3MaryAnnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13253503049272771754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540761711646097949.post-52829120765880258112013-12-24T06:53:47.052-06:002013-12-24T06:53:47.052-06:00oh. my. god . !!!!!!
