30 years and going strong....

Happy Anniversary to my cute Dad and Mom
Growing up I loved a picture of them from Lake Powell in 1986 double skiing and I told them all summer for their 30th anniversary they needed to double again so I could get a picture and they did! I love it! My parents are such a great example to me, they prove that marriages can last forever, that there are good times and bad times but its always worth sticking together!

BBQ Pizza

I crave BBQ pizza. Oh my god its one of my favorite dinner's in the world. I came across this recipe for pizza dough on a blog and it really is the yummiest and quickest dough ever. Its divine. I can almost eat a whole pizza to myself just ask B he has witnessed it a few times in my life but this by far is the best pizza Ive ever made! Enjoy....
Combine the following ingredients and let sit for 5 minutes:





2 tablespoons yeast
2 1/3 cup warm water
1/3 cup sugar
Mix together the following ingredients, and then pour the yeast mixture into it and mix again:
4 cups flour
1/3 cup olive oil
2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons powdered milk (the secret ingredient)
Add in an additional 2 cups of flour (or more) and knead/mix until the mixture is the right consistency.
Roll the dough and put into the pizza pan or pizza stone. Let rise for 15 minutes. 
Add toppings and cook 15-20 minutes at 400 degrees.

~This dough makes enough for two pizzas so I usually split it in half and freeze the other half.
