Damn Near Perfect Whole Wheat Pizza

I’ve been, let's call it what it is, short my entire life.  On my tallest day, coincidentally, the day I got my driver's license, I was 5'1. So when you find a pair of pants that fits without needing alterations, you buy three pairs in black and never look back.  It’s the same thing with pizza dough. When you find a dough recipe that works, you just keep on with it. For me, that’s been the Food Lab’s NY-style pizza dough. But after awhile, you start to need another pair of pants. What I really wanted was a whole wheat crust. So I started tinkering with my tried and true.  Tinkering until I got the Food Lab’s NY-style pizza dough to go whole wheat.

Dinner for One: Cherry Arugula Salad

cherry arugula salad| dailywaffle

Today, it's been eight days since I’ve seen my husband.  I’ve eaten five dinners on my own, if granola and snack mix on the plane home from Austin count as “dinner.” Cooking what I like, only for myself, usually that’s totally liberating. I get to eat all the things I like and he doesn’t. I see myself leaning against the stove in a crisp white shirt (mmm, very practical), sleeves rolled up, stirring a pot with one hand, contemplating my day while leisurely sipping a glass of red wine.  Like in a movie.

Be My (Pizza Spinaci) Valentine

  Every Rom-Com, every book, every platitude says when you meet “The One,” you’ll just know.  We didn’t lock eyes in a crowded airport terminal or pass each other on a train platform or have an awkward conversation about the weather in biology lab.  We met on the Internet.  And it’s like….magic. I have fallen completely, utterly and irrevocably in love. We are M-F-E-O (made for each other). My husband? What?  No, I met him in a bar.  I’m talking about the Baking Steel.
