Making Pizza

May 1, 2020 by Nathaniel Sewell Leave a Comment

Before
After

Before and after photos… I made the dough from scratch. I let it rise. I have bags of dough in the freezer.

I chopped up all the veggies that I bought at a grocery store. I used Newman’s Own marinara sauce. I buy it because of the not for profit and philanthropic philosophy.

I’ll quote from a song by The Band, “take what you need and leave the rest.” I never buy more than I need.

Thank you to farmers, truck drivers, and those endlessly stocking the grocery store shelves. And I hope we all have a newly refreshed respect for them all… without them, we starve.

I have a deep appreciation for my depression and WWII era grandparents.

They existed under these current pressures and anxieties for – years, not months.

Sometimes the best lessons come from human failure and crisis.

I’ll quote Maya Angelou. I regret I never got to meet her.

“You may write me down in history, With your bitter, twisted lies, You may trod me in the very dirt, But still, like dust, I’ll rise.”

We will persevere. In the morning, we will see the yellow dawn emerge above the flat horizon and the sparkle spread like fire across the land and sea.

And I’ll keep making comfort food.
