We took the opportunity for the short(er) drive from Portland to Seattle last weekend to visit friends and family. First up, Misty brought a bunch of goodies she'd made in class that day. We also brought the baking stone and pizza peel to make our own pizza! Misty had graciously made the dough at school, so we were already halfway there. Aroon and I took to the store to find ingredients for the pizzas while Aarthi and Misty had a sort of mini-spa day.
The pizza's turned out fantastically. First up was a more regular red sauced one with mozzarella, pepperoni and salami that Aroon and I devoured in short order. The other two pizzas we made were made with a garlic sauce, olive oil, three kinds of cheeses (mozzaralla, parmessan and a blue cheese), roasted garlic and basil. They all turned out very well. What a treat!
On Sunday, we met up with Lisa and Nick and checked out West Seattle. Misty found some yarn at Seattle Yarn Gallery, and we headed to a place called "
Coffee to a Tea" for some cupcakes. We took the cupcakes to Alki Beach and watch the birds and other animals while the sun danced on the buildings of downtown Seattle. What a nice weekend!

Yo Yo Yo,
We had an awesome time with you folks! The pizzas were simply delicious and making them (although misty did almost all the work) was a whole lot of fun!
Very cool concept - the cupcake / Seattle skyline picture on the blog. Nice idea!
