Pizza and Books

Is there anything a book lover loves more than a trip to the used bookstore? There are so many books and it takes great effort and thought to choose the ones that will come home with you. I am roughly working from 1001 Books You Must Read Before You Die, because I have to have some sort of map for my reading. Otherwise, I stand there adrift before the millions of books. I came home with an eclectic bunch, that I am itching to start reading. Why is it that the new pile of books that you bring home looks so much more enticing than those poor books that have been sitting on your tbr pile for weeks, months, even years?

Of course, all this book hunting made me hungry. I've been grabbing lunch out a lot lately, but I was determined to make something from whatever was around. I didn't get home till after 12:00, which is very late for me! I begin to get hungry for lunch around 10:00 and usually try to hold off till around 11:00, so I needed something quick and easy.

I checked my fridge and found a stale pita bread, some almost expired smoked mozarella, and leftover grilled sausage from last night. I combined those ingredients with some fresh basil and cherry tomatoes from the garden and it was a wonderful, quick and easy pizza.
