The big excitement around The House has been the pizza oven that we’ve been building. And by we, I mean my boyfriend Chris and roommate Jan. I contributed by lazily hanging around with our dogs while the boys slaved away in the sun.
But check it out (lots of photos):

Laying down sand underneath the fire bricks. Chris’ face of concentration and suffering my have been an exaggeration.

Me grumbling as I relocate many of my veggies for “the greater good” of the pizza oven. Turns out it was worth it!

Concreting the outside of the fire bricks. You can see I tried to protect my veggies with a towel, but there was a lot of cleanup required afterwards.

Me being completely unhelpful during the construction, as I sit with the cutest doggies in the world.
Overall, the pizza oven has been the most successful garden construction to-date. We now cook in it at least once a week, and on Sundays have been inviting friends over and just sit around with wine and make pizza.
Here’s a post of us making pizza in the new oven!
