Grilled Pizza Margherita

A summer state of mind

Thank you for subscribing and joining us at our table! ❤️ Your support is so very much appreciated. Feel free to share!

It has been a beautiful spring here in Pennsylvania – albeit very dry. We usually skip from winter almost directly into the dry summer weather but this year we have had a stretch of beautifully warm days bookended by cooler eves. We are in desperate need of rain however and we are all hoping that we do not repeat the parched summer of last year. The only side benefit to the lack of rain is the ability to be outdoors constantly. We are so very fortunate to live on a river that affords us the glorious opportunity to have our morning coffee as well as our early evening cocktails on the dock (and I thank my lucky stars every single morning!)

A Summer State of Mind

Aside from our coffee and cocktails, the grill has been fired up constantly. One of my goals this year is to perfect my ‘pizzaiola‘ (pizza maker) skills….and for good reason. We love a good project around here and we are deep in the planning stages for an outdoor pizza oven 🍕. Jay has spent years researching and sketching, measuring, and drawing, and after many (and boy do I mean many) years of “discussion” on the best location, we finally have the spot picked out! Jay has also been collecting stones for years in anticipation of building a pizza oven. We still need to secure the approvals but when it gets built, I will be “at the ready” with my pizza peel and ball of dough in hand! (And you will all be invited over for pizza and fire-roasted veggies and bread and…woohoo! 🥳)
