    Thanks, dipshit! I used to a stone with a layer of parchment paper because I already messed up the other side and didn't feel like buying a new stone. Kept it nice and tidy. But yeah, I preheated for 45 minutes at 500, too.

    Thank you! I've made a couple of quick ones but always some kind of a pan pizza in a Pyrex. I do make baguettes semi regularly and I used to deliver pizzas, maybe the exposure helped?

    I didn't have any problems with that this time, but I also don't think I did the dough right. It didn't rise as much as I was expecting so it turned out more like a thin crust, which was still really good. But if I get the dough right next time maybe I'll try parbaking it. Thanks for the idea and comment!

    It turned out great! Just a packet of yeast, 1.25 cups of flour, .75 cups of water, and some salt. Kneaded for 8 minutes, left to rise for an hour, and that's it!

    I've made paneer before for Indian dishes but never thought to make mozzarella. I'll look into it! It seemed like some pretty great mozzarella from what little I know, but I might as well try my hand at making my own.

    The oven was still cooling down when I used the range to cook dinner. I think just the changes in temperature caused it to crack. Of course, it was out of production but there was new old stock glass for like $400. New oven was ~$600 so I just bit the bullet, I hated all the appliances the house came with, anyways.

    The last apple pie I made blew up my oven (cracked the glass top) and I ended up spending $1800 on new appliances so they'd match. Never again!

    My last Domino's order was an hour late, the boxes were soaked through with grease, and the receipt was on top of the cheese of one of the pizzas. Domino's never even responded to my calls or emails to try to make it better, so they are on a Never Again list. I'll still be talking about that order when my preserved brain is on its deathbed in 2359.

    I've had good Domino's before, though, I think I just live near a shit store. If you live next to a good one then I'll happily take the compliment!

    The sauce was my favorite part! We wrapped some bread slices around the leftover mozzarella and dipped them, it was great. It was really easy, too, just puree an entire can of tomatoes, roast some garlic in oil, then move the puree in with the garlic once it's golden. Add basil, sugar, and a little salt, and just let it reduce down to about 3/4 of a cup.

    Took a quick shot on the way out of Carter Mountain Orchard, wasn't really expecting much but it ended up being one of my favorites of the day.

    After over 4 years of my E6000 glue job holding up, i guess its finally time...

    It was really nice driving home, though, so I'm pretty stoked that the Sierra top I ordered is zippered glass. Always nice to install an upgrade instead of just boring maintenance. Of course I pulled the trigger on a new Rega P3 50th Anniversary turntable right before finding this... when it rains it pours!

    I really should be working instead of doing my makeup and taking 500 selfies

    Went on a East Coast to West Coast and back road trip last year and stopped in so many beautiful places. My heart is still in Santa Fe but San Juan Capistrano was beautiful as well.

    Left is my 31st birthday, -22 months HRT, flew a Cessna around and then doublefisted some margaritas. Ask me what happened to my fingers, I dare you! (I have pictures...) Right is when we saw Orville Peck, 5 days before my 2 year HRT anniversary.
