pizza and sunday


(taken with mamiya m645 on rdplll)

hi.
do you remember that i complaint about this year's wet weather?
and today's paper favors me with one information.
it says that this year is on track for being the city's wettest year since 1998.
see?
i don't really dislike rainy days, but this year's are too much.
so, i'm feeling sooo good today because it's sunny!!
i'll make most of this pretty weather though i'll be stuck in my home. ;P

i've been talking about the feasts we're going to have in next 1~2 weeks lately.
and i told you yesterday that we're going to eat traditional japanese style feast for the first 3 days of new year.
with regard to this, my husband asked me a few days ago if we eat our sunday pizza on January 2.
the moment i heard that question, i answered without any hesitation "yes, of course!".

i can't remember when the sunday pizza started within us.
3 years ago?, or 4??
anyway, we have been stuck with that habit for quite a while.
that long we are accustomed to having pizza on every single sunday, i'm afraid that i feel my hands are shaking like a symptom of addiction on sunday without pizza.
i definitely need pizza even sunday falls on a new year's day or the day after.

well, the picture was taken at the brewery restaurant which features their handmade pizza in portland, oregon when we visited there last march.
as we eat our own pizza every sunday, we seldom eat out for pizza in our own town.
but i think we'd better do that sometimes in the coming year.
that doesn't necessarily mean that we're bored with our own pizza but doing so will help to make our pizza better than ever.
actually i have some pizza places that have drew my attention in my town.
the most competent candidate is the one my husband's co-worker and his wife opened recently.
he is a beer guy.
he brews his own beer and is trying to serve that in the restaurant.
and when their restaurant was picked up for the featured restaurant in the local free paper, the menu selection listed there seemed to be so nice. (how about pesto, apple, walnut and spinach on a whole wheat crust? yum!)
i expect them to be artisan pizza and beer makers.

i've already been excited with pizza life of next year!

Mmmmm, sounds soooo lovely, the new pizza place of the couple of your acquaintances. Pizza and beer. sounds perfect!
Yes, I too want some pizza definitely on one of the 3 days of the new year's. But I don't like the delivery pizza. So I'll make some on my own:)
Oh, but I'll have to cut down for the coming 3 weeks or so on bread and other wheat foods including pasta for some reason. (not for health reason;) , tell you later:))

Enjoy your pizza life!

hey, my girl! :)
so you think the new pizza place must be good, too!!
as mori-chan and the co-owner husband are working at the same site, they sometimes talk over the restaurant, pizza and beer.
everytime mori-chan and i talk over their place, i highly expect their restaurant to be a nice place.
i can't wait to see your pizza in a picture, too!!
as i've always trust you as an authentic gourmet, i really care about what you make and eat!! :))

so what's in your mind over wheat products??
not a health reason??
then what???
