I like to come home from work put on my pajamas and sit on the couch geeking out with my Macbook. Now that the days are getting longer it seems a bit silly to be wearing pajamas when it is still light outside. But, it's a ritual I'm reluctant to give up. My pajamas are so comfy.
Inevitably though I have to get up to make dinner. Today I made Pizza. I put the homemade frozen pizza dough in my cool pantry this morning before leaving for work. When I arrived back home it had defrosted and was rising up out of the bowl.
It was a cinch to spread it out on the pizza stone, layer on sauce made with tomato paste, a smashed clove of garlic, fresh rosemary, pepper and salt, salami, portobello mushrooms, chopped and sauteed with a sliced onion in a splash of olive oil, chopped red pepper and grated edam cheese.
It came out of the oven, the cheese browned and succulent the crust crisp and tender, all its flavours nicely mingled and smelling divine. It was the best pizza we had ever eaten and the red wine we opened earlier, while sitting on the couch, complemented it perfectly.
