I haven't had a kitchen for the past six months. Starting a new job kinda turned my life upside down, so it's actually been okay. Yeah, I eat very simply, but I don't mind.
But since I got my new countertop, I've slowly been trying new things. Over the weekend, I decided to make pizza. Now understand, the only thing that changed in my set-up is that I now have a countertop. My toaster oven has always been here. However, when I finally bought the countertop I'd been planning on getting (and looking for at every single thrift store for months), my toaster oven broke. But since I famously fixed my toaster oven, I had all of things necessary to make pizza!
The second photo is the final product. Boy did it taste good. My meals lately have been more monosyllabic, if you get my drift (i.e. less prep time). So take some cheese that I can now get just a mile from my house (yay for stocking vegan cheese!), add some sauce and dough, and I made myself a pizza in my toaster oven in 45 minutes.
So there you go. You too can live without a huge oven. Or you can live without turning it on every day and heating up your whole house (yay for hot summers!). I don't know how much further I'll take the experimentation. But now that I have the countertop, anything is possible.
Suggestions welcomed :)
