With running around I didn’t have the 2.5 hours to make, knead, rise, rest and shape pizza dough. But now I’ve found frozen hand-tossed pizza crusts, nearly as thin as I make them. So all I have to do, in a pinch, is put my own signature ingredients on top and bake.
The checker was amazed and vowed to try her own toppings when strapped for time. It’s from Pizza Romana, hand-stretched pizza crusts, brick oven pizza. Made in Italy with hand-stretched dough, authentially baked in wood-fired brick ovens. Produced in Italy for Divine Pasta Co. http://www.divinepasta.com.
From Visso in the Marche region. Hey, they’re not cheap but neither is time. So I have my Cappiello mozzarella, pepperoni, and peppers and onions I’ll saute beforehand. Two large pizzas. And for less than Domino’s. We did order Dominos a few days ago when we returned late from shopping. They got lost coming here and went back, came back here with the wrong pizza, lukewarm. Not impressive.
We used to order Chinese food a few times a year for delivery, but the last time they didn’t deliver and we haven’t found another as yet.
Sometimes in the life of a cook, convenience foods are just that and sometimes they’re not.
We had bags of ice in the freezer from the last purported hurricane. I’m removing them and thawing out the cubes and drying the bags for next time, perhaps later this week. Tomorrow I’ll come up with a list and make sure we’ve enough food, water and ice for Ike. I think that “I Like Ike” is not a slogan for this one, especially for folks in the islands/keys.
Trajectory is questionable on this one and I’ll check again, haven’t done so since this morning. Y’all take care and if you’re in the path make sure you have a hurricane kit. Cheers, Dee
