Someone mentioned to me recently that we posted a lot of stuff about pizza...and I completely agree. Pizza is good, cheap, and insanely easy to make. So far, we've eaten out at a lot of pizza places, but we hadn't made a pizza ourselves. Well, I decided to change that and make a pizza from scratch that didn't require but two ingredients for the crust. Now my inspiration stems from brick oven or coal-fire pizzas, which in my opinion have the most character of any type of handmade pizzas, and they can be dressed with the most basic or advanced ingredients, depending upon your preference.
Before we get too far into this, let's mention what two ingredients you need for your crust:

Road Trip: Classic Cup Cafe in Ann Arbor, MI
Recently, I visited my brother and sister-in-law in Ann Arbor to welcome the new addition to our family. After a long weekend of chasing toddlers around and staring at my beautiful new niece, nobody was in the mood to cook breakfast on Sunday.1 We went to the Classic Cup Cafe, which was just a short jaunt away from my brother's place.

Hoosier Fat Daddy? Tell Me Now!
On Saturday, I had the wonderful opportunity to attend the annual May Day Concert, presented by radio station WRZX 103.3 FM (X103). To those of you who don't know, it is an outdoor event hosting five or six bands at the Klipsch Music Center. It's pretty hard to find a better time, due to the fact that there's music, beer, and FOOD TRUCKS!

Baked-In Apple (Apple) Pies
Mmmmm....... |
Recently, she showed me something that blew my mind...Baked-In Apple (Apple) Pies.
Now, I'm not much for baking...other than the occasional loaf of banana/pumpkin bread, and I've never even attempted to make a pie. So in my mind, I thought that this would be the worst challenge I've faced. Honestly it wasn't that bad, and ended up being a much easier process than I had anticipated; and the payoff was completely worth it.

The Diner
What kind of food is it that restaurants serve that makes you want to keep coming back? For most, it's one of two things: either the restaurant serves comfort food, or a restaurant that serves up the food the way the owner and workers would want it if they cooked it for themselves? What if I told you that a place like this exists in Indianapolis, fits into our price point of $15 or less, and has amazing quality food that has had me there 3 times in their first three weeks after opening.
