As a simple girl from London, I only got acquainted with pizza from the American films on the TV. I think Colombo was one of the inspirations. However, with time there were pizza locals opening everywhere in London, probably starting in the sixties, and I soon recognised their good side. My mum and dad never really knew what a pizza was and I am sure they never had one ready to eat at home.
There were places where you could order your pizza for delivery and soon the supermarkets were selling pizza pastry to make your own. I often did and a pizza evening meal with pastry was actually not so difficult Although it looks a bit amateur on the photo, I think this was one of my own self made pizzas with my own pastry. There seems to be a bit of a mixture covering the pastry, but you can work it out yourself. I believe there was some mozarella, artichoke, tomato and mushrooms covering the pastry. The edge of the pastry was a bit thick, but it was a beginners pizza.
Today I only buy the frozen pizza, as I now live alone with my son. He likes the pizza with sea food and I like the basic.

Frozen pizzas used to have a cardboard-like crust, but current ones are much better, even good. It’s better homemade, yet one pizza lasts me two, three meals. I rarely make them any more, as much as I like them.

I usually managed a good half of a pizza, but son No. 1 always finishes the rest, so no problem. When he is at the table there is never a remainder.

I used to be able to get through a half large pizza myself. If it’s a small size, I can still eat half one sometimes.
