100 mile dinner
My friend (and bridesmaid) Amy’s doing the hundred mile diet, and it’s sorta my fault (long story).
It was Friday afternoon and we had invited her over to dinner that night, when we realised this. Ooops. We couldn’t just show up at the grocery store and grab whatever’s there…
Thankfully, we live in a delightful little neighborhood that happens to have little local and organic butchers, bakers, cheesemongers and green-grocers - all within a 1 block radius of each other.
We picked up some local sourced pizza dough from the Brick Street Bakery, some organic local sheeps-milk gouda from the Leslieville Cheese Shop, some asparagus from my parents backyard, and took it all home where we made it into a pizza blanco with some butter and my home-grown, sun-dried heirloom tomatoes (from last fall’s garden).
It was, hands down, the best pizza I’ve ever had.
There may be something to this whole hundred mile diet thing…
