We served it right there, in the damp April evening. It was only about fifty degrees, but green things are emerging from the ground, I thought. Let’s celebrate. It’s normal spring behavior for me.

Witness the latest creation to make it into “pop” form: pizza! Each of these little balls of dough is stuffed with gooey cheese and a slice or two of pepperoni – just enough of both to tide hungry guests over until dinner.

My future mother-in-law is allergic to yeast. I’m talking full-on, debilitating allergic, which totally sucks, because before she developed the allergy she really, really liked bread. And being a huge space cadet, I am always shoving a new yeast-laden recipe I developed into her face (yes, even Irish car bomb cupcakes are guilty, too), which she always so gracefully declines, while I stand there wanting to smack myself for forgetting for the umpteeth time.
