under/over/veggie/beige

we've got a system for making our pizza pies extra expert,
up here in the Folk Life & Liberty Fortress...
y'know,
so that it has optimal activation from the bottom to the top.
yup.
and when it's XI-mas,
and it's dinnertime,
AND harvest and maple are both just as hungry as i am?
well,
yeah,
we gotta bring the heavy-handed fistfuls over to our topping times.
neighbors.
the system works.
hahahaha....
but, for realsies,
i love that we can plan for success using our simple formula for pizza creation.
y'ready?
here it is:
sourdough circle;
custom underchee' shmear;
crushed tomatoes;
overchee' (a.k.a. daiya[rrhea]);
vegetable hottness-
beige-hued plant-based animal-mimicking protein parts.
DAS IT!
so simple, so effective, so expert....like i said.
there are three of us,
sitting pretty (well, 2 out of 3 are pretty, anyway)
in our woodsly goodsly mountain manse,
and that obviously means we had to activate a proportionate number
of pies for our faces.
that's our thing, after all......
check the pee-eye-zee-zee-ayy-type teleport:
word up.
and individually,
they were stretched and topped as follows:
baconesque-bits, and caramelized vidalia onions.
and:
chickenish-chunks with broccoli florets.
and:

doggish-discs over baby kale leaves and scallions.
i'm just sayin',
we get it goin' on pretty fresh in this kitchen,
and the oven has all the lovin' for that baking stone in it's center.
we reap the rewards of our efforts, too, duders.
we ate every last morsel.
munching up each one while the next one was baking,
and then assembling the next next one before the previous one was ready.
i'm tellin' y'all-
it's a system and it's a good one.
efficiency and effectiveness,
with panache and timing honed to a razor-fine edge of expertise.
that's what i'm teaching these kids.
that IS my job, isn't it?
yeah.
family togetherness isn't enough.
there's also the subtle suggestive acts and interactions that show off
all of the big benefits of an involved and participatory Folk Life.
this is What Is,
and we're sharing it,
second by second,
the whole time, every time;
never quiet, never soft.....
