It has been a very long time since the last time I've blogged. It got to be so long, and then it got to be longer. Then I became embarrassed about being away so long and then it just became harder and harder to get back. It's like writing thank you cards too long after Christmas (though I must say, I wrote and sent all my thank you cards today). Good for me.
I stopped blogging as much after I got my first smart phone. I didn't need to take pictures with a traditional camera anymore to share my dinners on facebook. It makes one lazy. And then I got engaged and stuff. It makes everything much more complicated to find time.
But since it is shortly after Christmas and I have the day off, I thought I"d share a great recipe for homemade pizza with you. You can put anything you want on your pizza. Mine has tomatoes, onion, mushrooms and arugula salad. With or without tomato sauce, it's fantastic.
