Hotbox pizza is good. Jockamo is good. Bazbeaux is good. There is good pizza out there. Just have to search for it.

No tax stamp today. Lame.

It's hard waiting on stamps. I just try to forget about them.

Sort of makes it like Christmas when they come.

 

[maansmit]

I would be as impatient if I didnt know it was approved in the middle of January.

 

[KJQ6945]

I hate waiting on them, so if I'm sending in one, I usually do multiples.

The 3 really excellent Pizza joints we had locally are all gone now. Replaced by the Bravo Sierra chain store crap.
1 local joint still cranks out a really good pie but after a while change is needed. I can not stomach Domino's or even the "Hut"

If I were still in the central part of the state, I could get a satisfactory pizza from Sal's in Plainfield. There was a place on the south side that was pretty good but a serious pain to get there. Turoni's in Evansville makes a good pizza. Now, there is one place local to me that makes a good but not really outstanding pizza (that, and I like the people), so I am left with my quality time with the oven when I want a pizza that really works for me:

3 cups bread flour
1 packet pizza dough yeast
1 1/3 cup hot water
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons oil (I use olive, but any vegetable oil will do)
2 tsp salt
Italian seasoning if you feel so inclined

Sauce:

1 can tomato sauce
1 small can tomato paste
2 or 3 tablespoons oil
'about enough' Italian seasoning
'about enough' brown sugar

Toppings as you see fit

How's Sam and Dave tonight?

SAM's doing okay now. Had a Dr appt this afternoon and work that needed finished by tomorrow....Just finished it up...

I have a new "BIG" customer. It's a Big-Box...They drop the craziest stuff on you at any time and it has to be completed and back to them in 2 business days or you pay a fine...

Fair, better than unfair! I have a road trip tomorrow, fortunately a relatively short one. Still not looking forward to it although it wouldn't be nearly so bothersome if I felt halfway decent. On the positive side, I have a delivery tomorrow, and one on Wednesday, and that should be it for the week.

On the negative side, I have a ton of fence that needs built, at least one barn that needs built, some house repairs that need made, and the joy of moving, and I don't feel up to doing any of it! Hopefully if we get consistent decent weather, it will be easier to get well!
