Pizza Lunch

 
Top tier: Pizza cut and sliced to fit in funny, unlogical ways; bottom: romaine, tomatoes and carrots with feta cheese; side: oil/vinegar dressing.

So, this was my dinner. Sort of. I started the pizza at about 6pm. By the time I was done, it was closer to 9pm, and by the time I could safely consume my food, it was 9:30. I've had one too many tongue burns recently, so I wasn't gonna risk it... (And yeah, sorry. I do go MIA during the weekends, as I'm between working too many hours on my other job and zombie'ing around recovering from said work.)

I had all the intentions of making a pretty lunch. I really did! But I woke up... early. Yes, early. Not late. But early meant I went and fixed my laundry from the day prior (who wants to do laundry at 10pm after dinner? Not me!), then started to work a bit on my computer, paid some bills, revised my budget... paid another bill, got confused with the budget because I paid for something twice... then by the time I looked up, it was slightly late. So I sprint into action and got ready for work. By that time, I was already very late, so this was a last-minute type meal.

On other news, I've been hounding my bento supplies. They should get home by Thursday this week, but I wont get them until Saturday. I'd love to go pick them up as they arrive, but gas prices are too high for that. So Monday I shall have a brand new posting! I borrowed a camera from my father as well, but havent figured out the kinks yet. So you might be seeing slightly better photos soon. :)

Also... I might be making staging mats. Just place mats to stage the food, so it looks better than on the counter.

And just because, here's what dinner looked like:

Yummy pizza from scratch (dough, sauce, toppings from scratch). It has cheese, mushrooms, tomatoes, sweet onions and green onions as toppings. It will take me a few days to get done with it, but you wont hear me complain... it ended up sizing to 16 'slices'/pieces. I ate two last night.. well, two and a half. Then packed 1 slice for lunch and snacked on the half from the night prior. So yeah, it'll take me a while.

  1. for some reason, pizza and salad just go together! I almost always eat a salad when I have pizza. and with feta, yum!

  3. Steph: I know, I really can't think of other sides for pizza than a nice crisp salad.
    Gen: I love making dough for some reason, even if takes a long time. I actually got bored after the dough was all kneaded and wanted to divide it and freeze it, lol. But then I remembered I hadnt eaten a meal, so I went on.
