Pizza Night

 Restoration supper tonite…. Live from NYC… 

The most welcome rainy day ever…  why You ask?  Because behind the storm is the most lovely low humidity mid 70’s weather imaginable and after sweating (oh sorry… ladies don’t sweat… we perspire) through the last few mugwump days… we are soooo grateful for that change to arrive 😁


Mama robin super busy today… rainy wet grass bringeth forth the worms!!  Spent her entire day flying back and forth between raindrops bringing the most delectable wiggly worms to her devouring hoard…  little mouths wide open visible over the edge of the nest… by late afternoon when the rains came in earnest she sat on the nest… wings outstretched over the edges of the nest to keep her babies dry… it was a moment to witness… true devotion 🥰


Iced coffee 🧋and mini wraps for two at the kitchen table… the hubs enjoying his hot cup ☕️  Mr Sam in loaf position on the rug next to the back storm door sniffing the scent of rain…  pools forming on the deck as drops coalesce into larger and larger puddles…  grass and plants reveling in the moisture…  the steady rain soaking the dry earth 🌎 


Dropping the hubs off at PT… a few errands… chores…  scooting by to pick him up and hustle home before the deluge comes… and not a moment to soon… into the house just as the downpour begins in earnest


Pizza night 🍕 the NYTimes Cheesy Pan Pizza… a family favorite… tonite with freshly sliced beefsteak tomatoes…  broccoli florets…  thinly sliced shallots…  shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan…  baked in the 14” cast iron at 450°F for 20 minutes…  rested for 10 minutes…  sprinkled with freshly picked chiffonade basil from the greenhouse…  delicious…  devoured… served alongside a crisp Sauvignon Blanc by Bogle 🥂


Covid delta variant now accounting for over 25% of all new cases among unvaccinated folks…  this variant more contagious and more virulent… patients carrying a heavier viral load for longer…  getting much sicker… please don’t risk your health… make that appointment and #GetYourJabOn  until then… mask up… limit interactions… trot through the market and wash those germy hands 😁💕

How was your day?   What’s on your plate?   Thoughts?
