Silly Pizza



The conversation about the pizza in the picture above went something like this:
Me: The pizza is done.
Doug: (while we're eating) the dough isn't done.
Me: It's really not done.

I get up and turn the oven on and put the pizza (all cut up) back in the oven. 5 minutes pass and it still doesn't look done. I open the oven and slide the pizza off the pizza pan onto the rack.

Me: Why's it smoking??
Doug: What's the pizza on?
Me: The cookie sheet (as I hold up the pan I just slid it from)
Doug: No, what's the pizza on now?
Me: Cardboard.... Oh crap.
Doug: (laughing like crazy)
Me: Well that explains why it's smoking and the crust isn't done. Duh!!
Doug: (still laughing)

It's the little things that keep me humble :) I am a pretty good cook 90% of the time, but the dumb things I randomly do drop me down to being a good cook only 50% of the time. I never did silly things like that when I was a cook - lucky for the people I was cooking for; not so lucky for Doug these days.

My mom keeps telling me how much better of a cook I was when I was living at home (Cooking for her) than I am now! What can I say, I used up all my desire to cook before I became a wife and mother! BTW I've done that too...cardboard and all! ☻
