Freezer Packed With Joy
January 7th, 2010Best Pizza in Town, for Pennies, ON DEMAND
The Prefab Pizza Project is going well. I have three dough portions in the freezer, two on the counter, and two in the food processor. I kept one aside so I can have pizza for lunch.
I couldn’t find shredded white cheddar for the cheese test, so I bought orange cheddar. I don’t see what difference it makes. I got the sharpest shredded cheddar they had.
Olive oil was on sale for not too much more than the Costco price. Hard to complain about that.
This is going to make life so much easier, and boy, is it cheap. One cup of flour, two tablespoons of oil, two ounces of sauce concentrate, and eight ounces of $2.50/pound cheese per 12″ pie. It’s virtually FREE. And so much better than any pizza I can buy.
No single human being should have this much power.
This morning I got an earful of negativity and unbelief over the phone. It depressed me for a while, because I was already (in my opinion) under attack. I was concerned about it. I thought maybe I should fast for a day. But the good Lord cleared it up before I could do anything. I found new resolve and new joy, out of nowhere. I am not going to allow myself to be offended by two weeks of illness and the bad attitude of one other Christian. I have been given the strength to rebound, and I am accepting it with gratitude and relief.
Have you ever been in a position where you had to tell another Christian, “Shut up and go home. I’m going on without you”? Ultimately, every one of us is alone with God and the angels. Never rely on another human being unless you have no choice. It’s too easy for the enemy to take them down or turn them against you. Working with others and accepting their help is essential, but it’s dangerous to be dependent on them.
I guess the new batch of yeast is ready. Back to the Cuisinart.

Peter and Paul had their disagreements…I figure it’s part and parcel to most any human relationship.

And there have been some fellow Christians I could not get along with; fortunately never in a situation that I had to remain in.

If we want to extend the body of Christ metaphor to this…sometimes the ears don’t much care for the company of the toes 😉

Careful with all of that pizza… or you’ll find Mr. Fat-Ass sneaking back up on you.

I spoiled myself while I was sick, but I stopped.

The pizzas are pretty small, fortunately.
