Our cousins came for a visit and we got to meet the newest puppy, Louie, a pit bull/bulldog mix. He is very handsome and very, very sweet. Jack and Louie have become fast friends, running around and playing tug of war with all of Jack’s toys. They are both napping with Carly, who is Louie’s proud Mama.
I made four pizza pies for our guests yesterday and they are all gone. So tonight will be roast pork tenderloin, potatoes au gratin and cauliflower au gratin. The house smells very nice and comforting right now, since everything is currently in the oven. As I was pulling the pizzas out of the oven, I got to baptize my newest kitchen tool, a wonderful pizza cutter that my two babies gave me for Mother’s Day, I was very excited to use it and it worked really well.
It is so much fun to use new gadgets, kitchen stores are my weak point, especially Williams-Sonoma, one of my favorite stores, I love to lose myself in there, looking at all of the beautiful shiny toys. I don’t need to buy any of it, I just like to look and imagine what I would do with whatever caught my eye.

That is one heck of a pizza cutter! Love the menu by the way 🙂
I know, I had seen it only once before on a cooking show about focaccia in Italy. I was so surprised when I unwrapped it lol. The menu was well recieved, I just loved the way the kitchen smelled all afternoon. 😀
It looks much more effective than either of the two wheel style ones that we have. It was probably worth going out in the cold today just to come in to the wonderful aroma of all the cooking.
I could not honestly say that it worked better than my other pizza wheels, it does make the pizza cutting more dramatic. When our cousins came in from skiing, they were very happy for all of the hot food and the good smells. 🙂
Your wonderful cooking makes your house a home! I tried to make pizza last September and it was a disaster!
Sweetie, trust me it took years of practice and finding a great recipe for pizza dough before I got it down to a science. The Joy of Cooking is where I got the recipe for the dough and the big guy’s cousin Teddy gave us two pizza screens that he got from a restaurant supply shop so that the crust get nice and crispy. I am thankful for your appreciation of my cooking, I miss baking for you and the kids. 😀
Great pizza cutter! I just have a wee pizza wheel. Watch your fingers!
It’s not that sharp, it is the weight of it that cuts, I find that the pizza wheel cuts just as well, but it does give quite the dramatic flair. 🙂
smells good from here in Chicago, IL. I have a new type of pizza cutter cannot explain it but it’s the best ever. Hope you and Hubby are healthy I was coughing for four weeks. just got over it all…..Love me
I love pizza and I found such a great formula that making it has become fun and easy. I hope that your cough is completely gone by now. 🙂
