Hot pink + silver – party rock!
[They were both Essie – I never look at the color names!]
I continued the hot pink theme with a watermelon snack before I left for dance today
Last week we did flowy lyrical-style music to the dance piece we’re building in Faith’s class. This week we did JAZZ! And there were gymnastics involved!! Handstands! [Did you know I can walk on my hands pretty well!?] I was in a pretty frazzled mood when I left for dance and came home cheerful!
I had an hour until Matt arrived for pizza making, so I poured myself a green cocktail. It tasted SO good I couldn’t help but chug it!!
I assembled everything for dinner except the pizza crust, which was en route!
Tomato + cucumber salad – because those are the only veggies in the house!! I smothered them in Garlic Gold Lemon Vinaigrette – instant amazing flavor!
And then there was pizza
Stuffed crust pizza!!
Not officially, but Matt made a 50% whole wheat dough with Cheddar Garlic and I just happened to get a cheddar nugget in my slice!
All two pieces I devoured were heavenly
More hot pink melon came out for dessert! I can’t seem to end a night without it these days. 50% for flavor, 50% for hydration!
Goodnight my friends!

I got a pedi today, and I think our toes are the same color!
I love the silver and pink combination!
These great pictures have me craving pizza like CRAZY now. Have a good night!
I always hear about Essie and I’m guessing it’s a great brand! wow I can’t believe you can walk on your hands!!
1. Essie is my jam. I’ve been wearing Turquoise and Caicos for over two months now.
2. What is on that pizza? It looks absolutely heavenly. Can Matt, like, ship me some dough? ; )
Green peppers, mom’s tomato sauce and pepperjack!
Looks like a yummy meal! Love the silver nail polish! I usually go clear on my fingernails, but the silver is really cute!
Ahhh sadly I read this post with two hours to go until dinner! I am now officially starving, and all I want is pizza!
aw man, you gotta start looking at the color names… they are so funny!! especially OPI names… also, are you going to sell premade pizzas that are refrigerated ready for baking at home like whole foods does? i think you could make a KILLING, especially with unique crusts such as the cheddar one featured above! i’m sure your ideas minds are runnin wild with things you could sell, but i bet this would be a smashing success!! just curious….
We probably won’t do pizza – it’s much much more complicated than it seems to do hot food like that! And I’m not sure that it would be cost efficient to keep our ovens running through noon.
oh nooo that’s not what I meant. that wouldn’t be cost effective. I meant prepping the pizzas raw for customers to purchase like that (kind of like a frozen pizza, but fresh) already with various toppings… but completely cold and then you go home and heat and serve….
Ahhhh. A possibility, but I think just selling the dough would be a great option! Gotta get matt to do that..
Hey Kath- all this dance talk makes me think..I’d love to see you doing the nappytabs routine! You should post a video!
Haha. I don’t think I could!! SO embarassing
Stuffed crust is the best! Something so delightful about oozy cheese when you’re not expecting it
That pizza looks incredible. I usually prefer thin crust, but a big thick crust sounds good right about now.
Mmmm what a delicious, perfect dinner!!! Pizza is my all time fave food, and i make cucumber tomatoe salads regularly!! If you have anymore tomatoes, you should make some bruschetta and top it on any of your toasted GH bread!
That pizza looks amazing!!!! I can’t even imagine how that crust must taste. Ugh!! Why couldn’t that have been my dinner.
Love the nail polish colors you chose, especially the silver.
Yay for your day off!! Super cute mani and pedi, woop woop!
I made pizza from scratch tonight too. I just love pizza
and it always impresses my boyfriend which I love even more!
You should film yourself doing some cool dance moves that you’ve learned
stuffed crust pizza – love. in LA there’s a bunch of korean pizza places that stuff it WITH SWEET POTATO MOUSSE.
i’m not lying:

That pizza looks awesome! As does your nail polish!
The nails look pretty pretty!!!
The dinner looks awesome as well!!! I really miss doughy pizza, since I had to go Gluten Free that is something that isn’t replaced or at least hasn’t been so far!
That pizza is party rock!
looks delish and love the nail color, hot!
Premade pizzas at the bakery would be a great idea! I think they would be a hit! I would surely buy them if I lived near a Great Harvest.

OMG that pizza looks sooo good! Can you post a recipe? I really want to get into the habit of making my own pizza’s rather than buying greasy delivery pizza!
Here’s Matt’s old WW recipe!

Oooh pretty nails! I wish my nails were shaped nicely so I can paint them. My nails are so short!
Essie polish is the best!!
Oh, the joys of bakery ownership!
Have you ever added melon to your tomato salads? I love to do that with a sprinkle of a salty cheese (like feta or cotija). So good!
I’ve been thinking about my complete lack of interest in pizza, and I must say it comes down to soggy Domino’s and Eagle Boys experiences. Really must try making it myself!
The pizza looks amazing. I wonder if your shoulders will be sore tomorrow. Whenever I do random spurts of handstands or back handsprings I can feel it the next day, and it really just reminds me that I need more upper body strength! Must do Body Pump.
I will admit it, I am suffering from serious pizza envy! I made one on Monday night after your posts last week and although it tasted great it didn’t look anywhere near as nice as yours do
Was definitely MUCH better than the ones we’ve bought lately though so I’ll count it as a win.
That pizza looks amazing! Watermelon is the perfect treat for this weather! Enjoy your evening Kath!
Pretty nails!! Yummy pizza. Perfect night, much?!
I’m so jealous of all the deliciousness happening in this post!
I LOVE ESSIE! But its so darn expensive where I live…..ugh…I wish I could buy it more often! Love those colors!
I’ve never had stuffed crust pizza! Yours looks good!
Oh wow, that pizza looks absolutely decadent!!! Love that nail polish color, too. Don’t know I would rock silver but it looks really good on you!
You got the winning slice!! Looks yummy. So does the tomato salad.
Those tomatoes & cukes look so fresh and yummy!!
Nice nails! Lookin’ good there Kath. You’re all primped up and ready to go for San Diego now. Shoes, wallet, nails. Check!
Tomato + cucumber salad = nothin’ wrong. I could eat one every day. And pretty much do!
How lucky you are to have somebody make you homemade and whole- grain veggie pizza! I’m WAY jealous
I had spaghetti with homemade tomato sauce inspired by YOU
your pizza looks amazingly delicious
i love essie..they have great names.. this summer i’m really loving their mint candy apple color.
Ha! My nails are silver, too, and I held my hand up to compare the color to yours, and then I realized that our fingers/nails are very similarly shaped. Hand twins! And that pizza looks awesome.
Wow! that pizza looked great!
Lol, great shot of your nails – cute polish.
LOVE the nails.
I had pizza tonight too – but yours looks way better. I need a Matt to make me that pizza dough!
Pizza is the key to my heart. lol.
Nothing ends the day better than a mani pedi and watermelons. That pizza looks divine!
Hi,
That salad looks amazing but I can’t open the link to the vinagriette recipe. HELP!
Kat
Hey Kat -
I fixed the link. It’s actually not a recipe but a delicious roasted garlic oil with lemon and herbs. You can find it at stores like Whole Foods.
I need a bread-making husband asap! Dinner looks delicious as always!
Pizza + watermelon pretty much embodies my idea of the perfect summer dinner. So so so good!
That pizza looks amazing
I can’t imagine how tough opening a bakery would be, hope you guys are looking after yourself!
silver is my favorite color, and that’s the prettiest silver polish i’ve seen!
i made pizza dough for the first time last night, and it turned out SO good. all your talk of pizza had me craving it like crazy!
Holy pizza! That looks absolutely divine!
Love essie nail polish! that silver one rocks! so does watermelon haha
No, I did not know that you can walk on your hands but that must be how the Bears learned.
We’ll have to plan a family beach trip so you (and they) can demonstrate.
I love thick, doughy pizza! Makes me want to curl up in it and sleep.
I ordered pizza out at a restaurant last night, but it didn’t look nearly as good as yours!
That crust is looking mighty good! (It’s really all about the crust!)
Cute toenails, lady! You look ready for the party. :p Stuffed crust was my absolute favorite. I feel like I’d skip cheese on the rest of the pizza if it meant it could be baked in around the edges.
Your nails are stinkin’ adorable. And, as always, your guys’ pizza looks incredible. Despite it being 8:30 am, I really want pizza right.this.instant.
Have a great day!
Stuffed crusts? I am drooling!
And your nails are adorable. The colors mesh together so well!
Holy yum- i’m drooling. Now I want pizza for breakfast
I love your polish colors! I have hot pink on my toes now as well!
Love dinner! Stuffed crust pizza? Sign me up!
Love that silver polish!! I’m trying to stop biting my nails and will be using that color as mental motivation!
Your nails look so pretty! Great choice of colors.
The pizza is so incredibly mouth-watering! Yum yum.
I have been dying to make pizza for a couple of weeks now! I’ve had all the fixin’s ready to go, but we never seem to be able to fit it into our schedule. You have convinced me that it’s now or never!
Ahh that pizza and that salad could go in my tummy right now… looks so so yummy!
1. Today is National Watermelon Day (says the ADA).
2. I’m pregnant during the hottest summer on record so there is ALWAYS watermelon in our house. It’s so sweet but I feel chronically dehydrated so it’s really nice to eat something for hydration instead of drinking my 80th glass of water for the day!
And the pizza looks AMAZING!
