The Favourite Eau de Parfum,

Let her know that she is your fave! British brand Penhaligon, calls this a fragrance of great delicacy that's also sweet and sensual. It captures the sophistication of a Duchess. Is that hint that royalty wore this? It's beautifully presented and something different from the same ol' thing.

Foodie Friday: Let's Have A Pizza Party!

No more delivery at our place. We make gourmet pizza at home for two or twelve. It's so much fun and everyone always wants to participate. A successful pizza party begins with organization. I like to pre-saute veggies, grate cheese, brown the meat and make the sauce before the guests arrive. Set up stations for rolling out crusts and topping the pizzas. Have plenty of towels and vino handy, then relax. There will be a little flour here and there, but the pizza will be great and your guests will be happy. Mangia!

Petite Pizzeria
And this is where the magic happens in our home! We love this little machine for thin or thick crust pizzas. You can even heat up frozen pizza in it. It heats to over 600 degrees, so your crust is perfectly crisp. A fave of mine.

Pizza Supreme on Cauliflower Crust
Say what? This cauli crust has cheese in it, if that makes you feel better. Now low carb eaters can actually eat the bottom of a pizza! I think this is a must try. Agreed, Sharon?

One of the secrets to my pasta and pizza sauces are sundried tomatoes. My experience tells me that the more you spend on the tomatoes, the better they are. These should be delicious and so worth the money.
