I realize that if you set out to wander there probably should not be any rules involved, but if there has to be some, these are a pretty good place to start:
I think I may have just found another blog to follow... :)
And speaking of wandering, I have finally purchased my tickets for Uganda! Hip hip hooray! Africa, here I come.

I made some pizza dough yesterday (first time with my new Kitchenaid stand mixer - it was glorious), and I decided to delve back into Peter Reinhart's American Pie since it had been a while. I turned to the Chicago section, which I've read many times before, but not since moving to Chicago. Ol' Pete and I apparently have the same feelings about Chicago style pizza. He explains it so well:
'I was hoping I'd become a convert to the genre when I visited the fabled originators. On paper, I'm there. I love cornmeal-flavored doughs, spicy sausage [well, not this girl], and oozy, gooey cheese of all sorts, but when I actually sit down to eat a deep-dish pie, I have the feeling of being assaulted--yes, in a good flavor sort of way, but relentlessly.'
I was assaulted twice by deep-dish pizza this past weekend, so this girl is looking forward to some trusty New York style tonight, which somehow DOES NOT EXIST in Chicago.
Happy pizza Wednesday, friends.
