🍕Today’s tip: Pick up fresh dough to make a restaurant-quality pizza.

When you’re totally burnt out from pandemic life, it’s hard to get creative about mundane things like meals, and even ordering in gets boring (and expensive). Here’s a neat thing we learned about recently: Most pizzerias will sell you, off-menu, a giant blob of fresh pizza dough for about $5. Let everyone in your household add their own toppings (some ideas here!) for foolproof crowd-pleasing dinner. (As a bonus, there’s something really therapeutic about stretching out the elastic, sproingy stuff.)

There, now you’ve taken care of dinner — and also reminded yourself that thinking outside the box doesn’t have to mean making things more difficult.
