Pizza Pizza!

This week, for the first time, I made pizza from scratch. I'm not really sure why it took me so long to do it, because it was fairly simple (if you don't mind working with dough, of course!) and tasty!  I look forward to perfecting the art of pizza in the coming months, and experimenting with toppings.  My brother makes grilled pizza and comes up with interesting toppings -- Brussels Sprouts and Bacon? -- and while I don't think I'll be that adventurous, I see this as a fun activity in the future.  Maybe we'll have "top your own pizza" parties!  There's not much to do in Kijabe so you have to come up with your own entertainment!




Our toppings were more conventional.  Mushrooms, red & green pepper, pineapple, and bacon and onion for Dexter's.  (I'm weird in that I don't generally like meat on my pizza!)  Next time, I hope I'll make my own sauce.

All in all, we were all pleased with the experiment. Our only disappointment was that it was gone so soon!

What would you recommend for a topping?
