[NFB-Blind-Crafters] Successful Saturday

[slery]

Tracy,

I am actually freezing the whole pizza. Make the dough, partially bake 
the dough, let cool, top with sauce, cheese, and toppings, freeze, and 
vacuum seal.

This will make for easy meals just like store bought frozen pizzas.

I am a little anxious about yarn for my project also and I am 
strategically working the parts so that the last will be the length and 
I can make it to where I like or where I have enough yarn for.

Cindy
