It didn't turn out as full as I would have liked for two reasons. 1. Trader Joes didn't have any of the fluffy kale to put on top of the iceberg lettuce and 2. I suffer from a moderate case of "sticky-phobia" and the sticky juices from the pineapple and grapes combined with marshmallows and chocolate really weren't helping my condition much. Had a few panic attacks actually. But I thought it turned out pretty good afterall and the chocolate covered strawberries were amazing. Here's my proof that it was delicious.
So we enjoyed that, and later that night we made a homemade pizza which was another adventure. Lets just say I'm glad I had my old camera on me to document it. I joked with Chris before we started that we should make a heart-shaped pizza. We both laughed because that would have been very "cheesy" (perfect adjective for a heart-shaped pizza if I do say so myself). So after Chris added flour and stretched and pulled and added more flour and tried to throw the dough in the air... our dough was pretty much a disaster. It wouldn't stretch anymore without tearing holes in it. We both were getting super annoyed because we were so hungry. The only form our dough would cooperate with was a heart. Go figure. So we got our heart-shaped pizza after all. "It was meant to be" were Chris' exact words.
So we started layering the topping UNDER the cheese. My favorite way (Fillipi's style). LOTS of pepperonis, pineapple on half, and jalapenos and bell peppers on the other half. Chris did the finishing touches on our Heart shaped pizza and I think it ended up looking more like Mickey Mouse. But dang, was it delicious!!!
Throw in a little sparkling apple cider, and you have one righteous evening.
We had a pretty fun anniversary after all. Here's to many many more!!!
I love it! Isn't the TJ's sparkling cider the best!? Did you make your own dough or did you buy the TJ's one? It is pretty good for future reference.
