Sounds too wonderful to snip a single word, Gary! Love what you did.
Precooking the mushrooms wasn't a necessary step (unless it was for
the butter flavor) because IME they cook perfectly with the pizza. If
you do this again, try precooking the mushrooms on one pizza and
leaving them raw on the other. You might be pleasantly surprised!

Don't forget to reheat your slices in a cast iron skillet (if you have
one). They turn out tasting like they're fresh from the oven.
