Let’s Make Pizza vs. Let’s Order Pizza!

I used to. I used to make homemade pizza, but I no longer do, because other people have taken over this task; my three children. They made pizza when we were in Col. I have photos to prove it, but alas, I don’t remember where they are. I don’t even remember if I have made an entry about this, but never mind, I think I’ll write about it again, because this is a new place and a new life.
Last time we went grocery shopping, with just H and Baby Z, H said to me,
“Ooh Ummi, buy cheese, for pizza!”
I was rushing, because the girls were at the masjid, attending an Arabic class, and I only had an hour to run errands (we had run out of diapers), so I told him curtly,
“Remind me when we pass the other side of the aisle.”
I also didn’t bring with me a grocery list, which usually helps in keeping me grounded, so I was rushing to get the items I needed lest I forgot.
Alas! When we got in the van, H said,
“Ummi, we forgot the cheese!”
“Ohh you didn’t remind me. Hmmph! That’s ok. Next time inshaallah.”
Today, hubby and I went grocery shopping and left the kids home.
“Ummi, don’t forget the cheese!”
This time I didn’t forget the cheese.
I haven’t cooked either, so the kids decided they wanted to make the pizza right away, for lunch. And so they did.
The recipe they used for the dough, is the same one they have been using when we were still in Col. It’s Tammy’s Easy Pizza. And it’s really good!
So, I had pizza for lunch today, and so did hubby, who have already left for Washington D.C. for a job training.
Alhamdulillah it’s “Let’s Make Pizza!” instead of “Let’s Order Pizza!”. I just told them they should make another one that we will try freezing for ‘lazy cooking days’. I intend to make spaghetti bake and freeze it too. It seems that we surely can benefit from these saviors of ‘lazy cooking days’ since three of the weekdays are now my class days, days which I have to had pre-cooked food so I won’t have to cook on those days.
We don’t eat out (due to zabih7a issues, and also hubby’s frugality) so that’s almost a no option. This is one reason that would compel me to go back to Malaysia, but not a strong enough reason, as of yet.
Dig in!!
