Pizza Night

After the cleaning, chopping, frying up ingredients, its time to assemble our Pizza. We had so much fun mixing together the different ingredients. It's really satisfying to devour it as well, at first we think it won't be enough to have one tortilla per person, so we're set on making two each, but it's surprisingly very filling. Must be all the toppings. We'll definitely do it again and experiment with different ingredients. Can't wait to get a new oven when we move house so we can make a pizza with proper crust, or we could even use the barbecue grill?

What oven are you using? Do you have any recommendations or advice on what we should be looking for? Any suggestions are appreciated since we're noobs when it comes to getting a good oven.

Pizza night (prep)

In preparation for Pizza night, we got a lot of ingredients such as tomatoes, green peppers, pineapples, Cheese, pepperoni, bacon, tortilla, olives, button mushrooms and tomato paste. This was inspired from a post from Oh! I See Red. I thought it was a good idea when I first saw it in her blog, especially when all it requires is a frying pan, no oven needed. This is actually a backdated post from October, I'll be splitting it into two post as there are too many pictures. Although I already tried reducing some. Pictures of ingredients and our preparation process. My sister and I cleaned, chopped, sliced and fried up everything we need so we could have a smooth operation all the way, I assumed that we need to work fast for fear of burning the tortilla.

A little photo diary

Wasn't feeling well enough to blog yesterday, I had a horrendous backache from mid-day onwards and a very bad stomach. Had a good rest last night, 3 of my kitties decided to accompany me at my sick bed, they slept quite a long time with me, but once the lights out, they all ran off to play. Party animals.

Today I decided to do a little photo diary. I would like to do this more often, but I'm too lazy to tote my camera around. Mine is not a big ass DSLR, just a medium size Sony NEX-3 with 18mm-55mm lens, but its still heavy. I'm going to get a smaller compact digital camera to keep in my bag, I'm so in love with the Leica D-LUX 4 or 5.

My sister woke up early to make me a Japanese sushi bento to bring to work. Suddenly realized that I as the big sis never made a lunch box for her, ever. There were some Fotomaki (sushi rolls) with cucumbers, clam slices, smoked duck and crab meat stick. And also some Temari-zushi (ball sushi) and also baby octopus. They may not look very professional, since she's still learning. But it's the thought that counts. 




Today I ordered a 10 inch pizza for lunch. It's a chicken-turkey ham pizza with pineapple, onions, red and green capsicums, oregano, special sauce and a sprinkling of mozzarella cheese. Yes, I ate the whole thing myself in my cubicle, tormenting everyone in vicinity. It wasn't the classic Itallian pizza, nor was it the Pizza Hut fluffy type, a cross between the two. Lots of chewy cheese beneath the surface.


Colorful, isn't it.
My cat seemed to have lost some weight, I'm worried. He likes to sleep in my bed, mine is on the upper-story, all the cats liked it there.
