Mmmm...Pizza

BAM!

An colorful array of red, green, yellow, and white filed my awesomely delicious, fresh-made pizza. The zucchinis, tomatoes, garlic, cheese, tomato sauce, and green bell peppers were combined on top of the pizza dough and baked in a clay oven. My first bite was sweet, warm, and chewy. This was the best pizza I've tasted in a while. It's too bad that I forgot to bring my camera to show how my pizza looked, but Mrs. Anagnost posted some pictures on flickr. All the ingredients available came from either the organic UW Medicinal Herb Garden or Trader Joe's. Some students made calzones and it looked equally appetizing. I do believe that fresh vegetables make a difference in quality and many cooks agree.

Pizza Line (from Mrs. Anagonost)

Standing in line for my pizza to get baked, I looked around and saw about a group of 20 people talking away and enjoying each others company. It felt like almost a Thanksgiving dinner and there was a good vibe from everyone. Preparing and cooking food brings many people together and I got to know my classmates a lot better compared to the other food activities.

Some say Cosco pizza is nasty with the grease, but I thought it was pretty good until I was introduced to California Pizza Kitchen (CPK). The pizzas we made are now better than CPK! This was my first time making pizza and I'm sure I will do it again. The more I think about it, the more I enjoy fresh food.
