College Game Day

Make Yourself A Wood Fired Pizza

If you are anything like our family, the fall season is all about football, yummy food and chillin’ around the fireplace. We love to make delicious, easy meals on the weekends for family and friends!

The one food that we all love the most is homemade pizza. We like to buy a few different ingredients and put them in small bowls for a make-your-own-pizza buffet. Everyone loves this, especially the kids! Then, everyone builds their personal pizza with their favorite toppings — it adds a fun, personal touch to a group dinner.

The kids and I gave Derrick the Ooni Pizza Oven for Father’s Day this year, and we haven’t looked back on how best to cook our pizzas. The flavor is unparalleled — the secret is to use wood chips, which gives the pizza that delicious, wood-fired taste!

Here’s a list of our go-to favorite toppings … and I’m all about buying pre-made pizza dough. We love Trader Joe’s dough — easy peasy and always delish.

 

TOPPINGS:

Shredded mozzarella cheese

Tomato sauce

Pepperoni

Italian sausage

BBQ chicken

Sliced jalapeno

Sliced tomatoes

Basil

Sliced red onion

BBQ sauce

So crack open your favorite microbrew (ours is from Deschutes Brewery), grab a slice of delicious pizza, and enjoy a day of chillin’ by the fire and watching football with loved ones!

Here’s how to bring everything you love together. Without the chaos!
Comment ‘LOVE’ and I’ll send you exactly how we define your base, choose your lead style, and mix in the rest so it actually works.
Most people think they have to choose one style... but that’s usually not the problem. The issue is trying to make everything feel equally important.
If you want your home to feel collected (not confusing), you need a clear lead... and then layer in the rest.
The difference between a home that looks good... and one that feels good?
It’s what your hands touch every day.
Plumbing fixtures.
Cabinet hardware.
Upholstery.
These aren’t always the most exciting decisions, but they’re the ones you interact with constantly. And trust me, you notice the difference. If you’re going to invest anywhere, start here.
Save this + pass it along to someone designing a space right now!
Sixth Street Bungalow update!
What’s your favorite room so far?
We’ve had a “timeline”... but also not really
Lately it’s been a little here, a little there.. jumping between spaces depending on what we can get done. And honestly, that’s just how renovations go.
That said, it’s finally starting to feel like a turning point. Most of the downstairs is done (minus a few spaces), and now that the upstairs is ready, we’re moving up there so we can start the primary suite next!
More to come.
That’s kind of the point.
We’re talking about this in this week’s post on Between the Layers—how the most beautiful spaces aren’t just one style, they’re a mix. And more importantly, how to actually make that mix feel intentional.
If you’ve ever felt stuck trying to define your “style,” this is how we do it without it feeling random.
