I now have a pizza 'steel', it was quite expensive, sometimes the pizzas come out great, sometimes not so good...you have to preheat the 'steel' for at least an hour.

The jury is still out on the 'steel', I might get another stone as an alternate.

Please report back on this! It looks interesting.

Last night I made something I have not had in at least 10 years....sloppy joe's. It just isnt what we would normally eat. I have to say, it was delicious. I made my own sauce rather th an use a mix, and I made it less sweet than the recipe suggested.

I wont make it too often, but wow..it really tasted good.

I adore black coffee with dessert, but if I had it with dinner, I’d be awake all night. Darn it.

Tonight, spaghetti and salad for us. Still working on the ricotta cake.

I bet allrecipes didn't read the recipe either before it proclaimed 700 calories per piece.

Have you tried it yet? As a fellow non-fish-lover, I'm curious!
Yes, and I liked it enough that I bought another bag of frozen cod! I made 2 pieces and he ate 1.5 of them. Next time I will make 3 or maybe even 4 pieces, though I'm sure 1 is enough for me.
It is definitely not a fishy fish.

The Torsk went really well with sides of boiled red potatoes and cole slaw.

I begged Mr. Praline to grill a slab of ribs today rather than tomorrow. I made potato salad and put baked beans in the slow cooker this morning. More Moscow Mules and the rest of the pineapple-upside down cupcakes for dessert.

I had a hygienist appt. at the Dentist today..we were going to make some Vietnamese meatball and raw veggies tonight, but Magicshark put me in a Pizza mode.

My wife asked if we could buy the wheat pizza dough, because they only make it on Fridays..we picked up some at the bakery on the way home..

I made some homemade crushed tomato sauce with the last quart of our home canned Jersey plum tomatoes..
Sauté chopped garlic, onions in Olive oil, add tomatoes, squash tomatoes with an antique hand potato masher ( my grand-mères) http://www.city-data.com/forum/membe...4-img-5571.jpg
some dried oregano Sea salt and pepper. let simmer for about 20 minutes.

The Italian Peoples bakery had some fresh basil so I grabbed a bag..99 cents...snipped some of that into the sauce too.

I chopped up another clove of garlic in some EVOO..put in in the Microwave for a minute.

The dough was so easy to toss, no rips or holes ..I like a super thin crust, but my wife likes a more chewy robust crust.
We did the 'Rock,Paper, Scissors' thing and I lost..so the pie is thick crust..

The pizza steel is preheated, we put some cornmeal down on it, then lay the pizza dough down on it for about a minute..

take the dough out..brush the dough down with the chopped garlic and olive oil..get it all up into the corners of the dough..

Crushed tomato sauce next, then the mozzarella, then some thin sliced white onion and green pepper..
pour any left over garlic/ olive oil on top...maybe a little more sea salt, ground pepper and dried oregano.

The dough was fantastic, crunchy, light and chewy..

The wheat crust was a winnah!http://www.city-data.com/forum/membe...2-img-5569.jpg

We only have Philly chocolate- peanut butter Tasty -cakes for dessert.

picked up a bottle of a modestly priced Ruffino Chianti.

Dad was a great and innovative cook, but he worked long hours.


PS. I owe you some more stories from the 'dest' lady and others.
Update:

Did you know that I'm having dinner with your brother tonight? No? (He doesn't know either.) It's only in my dream, in some alternate universe.
