While JSS is in the exotic land of Mumbai, we at-home folks do things like eat a lot of take out ("take away" is the proper word for it here) and stay in our pajamas all day (that would be known as my "laundry conservation movement intended to reduce our carbon footprint"). So tonight we had pizza with homemade real iced tea--meaning that it was made from tea bags sent from the USA because no such "regular" tea bags exist here--and ranch dressing for dinner. Even Beebo got into the act.
The ranch and tea were no small feat--thank you my beloved family and friends. I still maintain that the Arabian Gulf would be most improved by Texas-style iced tea being offered everywhere and by the presence of huge Western bookstores (Waterstone's or Barnes/Noble or something like them).
the pizza looks amazing. and REAL iced tea!? i'm jealous. that's one thing on our 'wish list' of things for my family to bring at christmas. (along with ranch mix!) tea bags intended for hot tea just aren't the same! (although i still make a gallon of sweet tea with them almost daily- oh, african heat.)
ReplyDeleteYes, the tea bags are close but just not the same. I swear the world would be a more peaceful and happy place if every country had ranch dressing mix and "real" sweet tea. That pizza is yummy--it has all sorts of fresh veggies on it, including eggplant! But your homemade crust is even better, I feel quite sure. :)
ReplyDeleteYea for family Christmas visits!!!
