Coming from New York I am often disappointed by pizza just about anywhere else.

I love the thin crust and the perfect cheese to sauce ratio of New York style. No other pizzas compare.

Every once in a while though a good pizza will come along and dazzle my taste buds.

Enter: zpizza’s Italian Pizza

Every topping is my favorite. Olives, tomatoes, artichoke hearts, pesto and mozzarella. They got the crust to be delightfully light, airy and crisp. As an added bonus, zpizza’s mission is to have sustainable, organic ingredients to create delicious pizzas that people will want to try again and again. They have so many specialty pizzas that I would love to try. Mediterranean, chicken sausage, Provence, Thai, Mexican… they all sound delicious!

If I thought that the conference was what I needed for work, going home is what I needed for my soul. It was lovely to see my family and putter about just enjoying their company. We played countless pitch matches, umpteen rounds of backgammon, a few grudge matches of trivial pursuit and even a cutthroat canasta game.

Sometimes just being around your own family is just what you need.

And the food was sublime. Mum made all of my favorites. Some of the highlights included:

Black bean Taco Pizzas:

Turkey Dinner with Sweet Potatoes, Brussels Sprouts, Peal Onions and Cranberry Relish:

Scrambled Eggs with delicious Heidelberg Bread:

Asparagus and Mushrooms on (Heidelberg) Toast

Oatmeal with Blueberries and Figs:

Beef and Barley Soup:

Roast Pork with Potatoes, Vegetables and Cabbage; Apple Slice and Orange Ice cream for dessert:

 

The food was scrumptious. The company delightful… It was definitely not easy leaving these lovelies on Saturday!

Cannot wait until they visit Boulder!!!!
