She arrived Friday night and brought her golden retriever Piper. This was the first time Piper and Ellie met and they are now best of friends!!
After the drive and a long work week we decided to unwind with cocktails!
Vodka soda with lime for Anne and I - Beer for Jeff!
I decided to do something different for an appetizer. Jeff and I normally just set out some good cheeses with crackers, but we were making Pizza for dinner so I figured we were getting enough cheese and bread there. Thinking about something that would be tasty yet not too filling I opted for Grilled Artichokes. This is the first time I had made them and I thought they were great! Recipe to follow.
Pizza for dinner!!
We made three different kinds: BBQ Chicken, Traditional with a twist, and Tomato Basil
They were great! We picked up Pizza dough at Whole Foods and added the toppings ourselves.
It was such a fun and casual dinner!
Tomato Basil: olive oil, sliced tomatoes, lots of basil, pine nuts, salt and pepper, parmesan and mozzarella cheese

Traditional with a twist: Pizza sauce, prosciutto, sauteed red onions, mushrooms, and mozzarella cheese
BBQ Chicken: BBQ sauce, rotisserie chicken cut in pieces, sauteed red onions, and red pepper for a kick!
I was so proud of myself for remembering to wear my cute aprons! I passed them out to everyone!
The final product!!
We put one in the oven and the other on the grill- Both turned out well!
