Didn't know what I wanted for dinner. And pizza is always received well by both Moe and Matt, so I hand-mixed a 500g dough at 80% hydration this morning and put it in the fridge before I left for work. Matt took it out of the fridge two hours before I got home. Instead of baking right on the stone on the grill, I baked the pizzas in the Bakerstone Pizza oven. I haven't used this in about three years. Was really happy with how the pizzas turned out. Baked a three cheese pizza for Matt and a Pepperoni deluxe for Moe and I. I really love the crust. My favourite part.

Works for me too.

I've used a toaster oven for years. The last one was a Cuisinart Convection oven. I bought it specifically for toast. And it did its job for 15 years. Great toaster. The CSO is even better. Thankfully it is good at everything, but even if it wasn't I would buy it just for its toast function.

No pizza sauce??? Really simple dinner tonight. Hot Dogs. Grilled European Wieners on homemade hot dog buns.

Yesterday's breakfast. Toasted BLT on homemade bread. Tomatoes from our garden.

I decided after 1:00 PM yesterday afternoon to bake. Since I still had baguettes, both regular and sourdough in the freezer, I went with Hamburger and Hot dog buns. Used my Kaiser roll recipe. And while I was at it, I baked a couple of home-style white loaves requested by Matt. Sliced this morning. Destined for BLT's for breakfast.

Lucky guests. Individual Shepherd's Pie for dinner tonight.

I agree with @Anna N, got to have peas with a hot chicken/turkey sandwich.

Nice spread @Shelby. (Like your board) Grilled Baby Back Ribs for breakfast this morning. Served with TBQ sauce. And potatoes roasted in the CSO. This was suppose to be last night's dinner, but we had lunch out and weren't hungry for dinner.

Moe's breakfast. Soft (Steamed) Eggs with sourdough toast fingers.

Moe's breakfast. Omelette with roasted cherry tomatoes........ and toasted sourdough baguette.

Halibut with Dungeness crab for Moe and I. I was baking sourdough bread last night and used some of the dough in a simple cheese pizza for Matt.

Finally got around to feeding my sourdough starter this week. Fed it once to revive and a second time for good measure. Second time I used some of the discard in a Biga. Handmixed a batch of dough on Friday morning before leaving for work and left it in the fridge until yesterday afternoon. Baked last night. Sliced this morning. And a simple cheese pizza.

Moe said he would be happy with just a salad for dinner. So........ I made him a "stacked" Greek Salad.

Tonight's bake. Dough given 48 hour cold fermentation. One pizza (on dinner thread) and seven small baguettes and one smaller boule baked in 3 litre Dutch Oven.

I have seven small baguettes, and a small boule proofing as I type. The dough, two 500g flour batches was hand-mixed on Monday and both had been in the fridge until late this afternoon. Saved enough to make Matt a 3 cheese veggie pizza for dinner. Topped with sliced tomatoes, green and red peppers and green and black olives. Neither Moe or I wanted much for dinner so I didn't make us a Pizza. Moe was happy with a slice of Matt's pizza. The crust is so good, if I do say so myself.

Late breakfast. Chuck burgers, grilled and homemade double-fried fries.

@JoNorvelleWalker, great looking pizza. Did you roast the tomatoes first or just add them fresh?

@liamsaunt, I so agree with you. I love cauliflower, but I want it as a vegetable. Not as rice, or potatoes or heaven forbid a pizza crust. Oh WOW. I'm a big black pepper fan. Have carried a pepper grinder in my purse for over 20 years. I also grind pepper over my pizza crust when stretching. Next time I bake burger buns, I'm adding lots of black pepper. Last night's dinner was fresh halibut, pan seared and then finished in a hot oven. Served with a fresh salsa, made from tomatoes (from our garden) Kalamata olives, basil, garlic, lemon zest, squeeze of lemon juice, salt, pepper and olive oil.

I made Moussaka yesterday. Served with a Greek salad.

Pollo Alla Marengo with Linguine Puttanesca.

Last night's dinner. Made Moe a Caprese Salad. With homemade focaccia. He is happy to have one of these every night. This one was made from fresh picked "Manitoba" tomatoes.

Thanks @Kim Shook, The recipe is on the blog, you can find it here: http://www.thibeaultstable.com/2012/05/prawn-etouffee.html Yes Matt is our son. Not sure how I ended up with a vegetarian. Especially one that use to love his meat, especially rare beef.

We had pizza tonight watching the US Open Women's semi final. Our girl (Bianca Andreescu) won. Moving on the final against Serena Williams. Made a Pepperoni Deluxe for Moe and I to share. And Matt had a Three Cheese Pizza. Dough had been in the fridge since Tuesday.

As well as dessert, I made Prawn Etouffee for dinner with our friends and neighbours. Celebrating Clif's retirement with one of his favourites.
