La Pizza in Puglia

Today, I was sitting around wishing for something to do when, like the perfect Italian dream come true, some friends stopped by with ingredients for homemade pizza!

We were feeling rather inspired from the cooking class we took earlier this week, where we learned to make our own pasta from scratch, and we were looking forward to practicing our dough-kneading skills.

We ended up with four delicious pizzas to share between the six of us--me, Chiara, Eli, Jenny, Mari and Speranza (that's Hope in Italian)--it's going to be one of those rare nights in which I pass on gelato.

The classic pizza margherita

The zucchini special
A blog can't convey how good this smelled
Our Italian advisers stopped by and were very impressed with our culinary skills, but they weren't quite sure what to make of dessert...

Nutella and Banana heaven
