Pizza Palooza

I was asked to cater a homemade pizza night for a dinner group that has been meeting every couple of months for a few years now. We were invited to become part of this group about a year or so ago and it's been great. The group either meets at someone's home and all contribute, or meets at a restaurant, or some such thing. It's a "just because we're friends and we can" type of group. So, when asked to do the pizza night, I gladly obliged. We had a blast, and 15 pizzas, 2 desserts, lotsa wine, beer, and homemade liqueurs later, it was a success. Everyone was stuffed, and a good time was had by all. Here are some pics.

Cookie bars with biscotti crust, slivered almonds and white chocolate chips

Everyone seemed happy and full, and that, of course, is the goal. I'll post some of these recipes at a later date.

Buon Appetito!
