I was thinking of individual pizzas with homemade dough for the crusts
and improvised toppings.

But now, I'm wandering down alternative pathways to destinations like
jambalaya and gumbo. Or falafel, which is obviously another path
entirely. Then there's the possibility of a variation on salade
Nicoise if one's path leads to sunny southern France..

I'm going to wander away, now.
