Good evenin’!
Well I got that house cleaning in – mopped the floors, sprayed down the kitchen and vacuumed the whole house. You know, super exciting stuff, really.
I can’t bring myself to put the vacuum away yet though. I’m feeling too lazy to bring it down the stairs and wrap up the cord!
As I was cleaning, I found my stash of seasonal wreaths & floral arrangements that I had forgotten all about! I put up my fall, front door wreath – it’s a little late in the season, but better late than never! Do you like to decorate your house for the seasons?
I made this last year out of a basic wooden wreath shell, and a bunch of little berries, accessories and…do-dads? I guess I don’t know what you call all of these things on here!
I adore this wreath – it makes me smile to see it when I pull in the driveway everyday.
Dinner tonight was a pizza that we picked up at the grocery store this morning – The Dish Famous Stuffed Pizza!
The Dish is actually a restaurant in Kansas City and the owner happened to be at the grocery store this morning, handing out samples of his frozen pizza line!
He gave us a slice of the Spinach Deep Dish to try, and after the first bite we knew we had to purchase a whole pie.
After a quick baking sesh in the oven, pizza was up!
Wow. WOW! I’ve never had frozen pizza that tasted so fresh – I honestly felt like I could have been right in The Dish’s pizza shop!
The thing about deep-dish pizzas is that they’re usually grease bombs. Literally, I think most restaurants pour 1/2 cup of oil into the bottom of the deep dish pan before putting the crust in. Not The Dish pizza though – it was incredibly light, flaky and not greasy at all!
Look at that ooey-gooey fresh mozzarella cheese!!
I love supporting small businesses – especially when I get to meet the people behind the product, and see that they’re doing whatever it takes to be successful.
If you can find The Dish frozen pizzas in your area – I highly recommend you pick one up! The ingredient list is short, the price is right and the yum factor is high!
Well I’m currently watching Laguna Beach on tv – one of our local stations started syndicating it and I really could not be more excited! My roommates and I used to be obsessed with this show in college. We’d gather every week to watch and wonder why we were never that cool in high school?!
Until tomorrow!

What kind of pizza do you like?
I’m partial to a good hand-tossed crust with light sauce, fresh mozzarella, sauerkraut & black olives – YUM!


































I usually like thin crust with a few mozzarella balls, an herby sauce, and fresh basil. That’s how I got it in Rome and it was love at first slice
I like thin crust with tomatoes and mushrooms…with GARLIC!
Wow. That pizza def doesn’t look like other stuffed pizzas I’ve seen. It looks quite good!!!
For me the thinner the pizzza the better. I love the simple fresh ingredients of fresh mozzarella, basil, and roma tomates. Sometimes I like adding some prosciutto.
You are so crafty and creative and I love it!
That pizza looks phenominal! Glad you had a great weekend. I just caught up on your past 2 days. What fun!
That pizza looks awesome! I adore deep dish, Chicago-style pizza so your dinner looks like a dream to me!
That pizza looks great! Love your wreath. You made that?! I love pizza…any kind really, I’m not picky.
I prefer either a thin crust w/ fresh mozzarella, tomatoes and basil or a regular style crust with tons of veggies
And p.s. never have I EVER seen/heard of pizza with sauerkraut on it but my Polish self just had a warm fuzzy moment thinking about this (love sauerkraut)!!! These deep dish pizzas do look pretty tasty though I must say, lack of grease factor is def appealing.
Good poll: “pizza” or “pie”? Haha I used to get SO annoyed with my NJ roomie in college for calling it a pie, since I associate that term with dessert items and had never even heard that terminology for a pizza up until then haha. K, rant over :/
I was just in Chicago this past week and had spinach deep dish pizza from Gino’s East, have you been? It was delicious!
I have a winter wreath that I love and makes me smile when I come to my apartment door every day
I liek thin crust pizza with crazy toppings. My favorite recently is thin whole wheat crust with tomato sauce, goat cheese, spinach and red peppers.
oh my goodness… that pizza looks incredibly good!
that pizza looks amazing!
OMG you made that wreath yourself? I ABSOLUTELY adore it! How much do you charge to – make the same exact wreath, and then ship it to me?
I loved Laguna Beach too!! I definitely still watch reruns when they come on and am an avid watcher of The Hills! Haha:)
I love a really good cheese pizza! But I usually try to get a veggie type pizza.
i love love love deep dish pizza and this one looks amazing! i think i’m going to research it and see if i can find it!
i would kill to have laguna beach on tv! i LOVED that show! i even met Stephen when i was out in LA my senior year of High school! hehe
I love laguna too, total guilty pleasure! I’ve never seen a pizza with the sauce on top it kind of freaks me out but it looks delish at the same time!
LOVE that wreath–I have the hardest time finding ones I like!
I am a fan of chewy whole wheat crust with a sweet sauce and any vegetable under the sun!
I typically prefer thin-crust pizzas (or better yet, grilled!), but last night I followed a recipe for pan pizza made from scratch. Saw it on America’s Test Kitchen (http://www.americastestkitchen.com/recipe.asp?recipeids=3369&iSeason=) and it turned out beautifully! Crispy golden crust, super-easy sauce, part-skim mozzarella and pepperoni pre-cooked between paper towels to eliminate grease. Yum. : )
i love decorating for the seasons…seriously can’t wait for my holiday decor!! except I had to leave a lot of it in KC just because we didn’t really have much storage in the apt
That’s weird, I’m a KC native, and I’ve never heard of it! I’ll have to check it out!
I’m with allijag! Can you make us a wreath to purchase and ship?! I love it!
We live about 10 minutes north of Liberty, MO and love Dish pizza!! We just moved down here from Iowa and it was 1 of the first places we ate!
