The Pizza Party
A while ago some friends (Tim, George & Ryan) and I ventured out of town for some tom-foolery down in not so sunny Kiama.
We did the usual and headed to the shops on the way to buy some dinner. Initially it was going to be a bbq affair but the weather was overcast and we all quickly agreed to go with pizzas instead. We parted ways and joined again at the checkout with an assortment of ingredients and some supermarket banter.
We used the new self checkout but had a little trouble wrestling the technology. I have to admit I think we got the rocket for free, oops! The whole deal cost about $50 which ended up over-feeding 5 of us.
And then we were on our way. When we arrived at George’s we poured ourselves an ale, pre-heated the oven to 180C and chopped, diced and sliced all of our ingredients and placed them in bowls.
Then the fun began with each of us styling our own pizza to share. It wasn’t long until it turned into a competition to see who could make the tastiest slice, and we all became instant food critics.
About 6 pizzas in the alcohol had taken it’s toll and we were all finding it hard to remember what the 1st pizza tasted like.
About 10 pizzas in we were all already full but decided to make dessert pizzas in between poker rounds.
I went about making the worst pizza imaginable and ended up adding sherry, cornflour and soya sauce. It didn’t taste to bad but still, don’t try this at home!
The winner was Ryan, and he got my vote not just for the taste of his dessert pizza but also for the way he made it sound so unbelievably tasty even before it had hit the oven!
Below are some photos (Thanks Timmy)…

We’re going to make pizza parties a more regular event. They’re a great way to enjoy good company and experiment with good (and not so good) food!
