Merit of Moderation

Andy coined this phrase while we made homemade pizza for the first time.  We made my pizza (pepperoni, light cheese, light sauce); doesn't it look beautiful?! 
Then, we worked on Andy's pizza which had pepperoni, spinach, black olives, mushrooms, and onions on it.  As we put it together, I asked Andy if he wanted more sauce or cheese; he replied, "No, you've taught me the merit of moderation."  Once baked, he added Tabasco to this "moderate" pizza of his.  Unfortunately, we forgot to take a picture of his, but mine was prettier anyway...

For the crust, we used the dough from the homemade bread I've been making, the sauce recipe below with some basil added and garlic powder instead of real garlic which made a ton of leftover sauce, mozzarella cheese, and whatever toppings interest you.  Our biggest problem was making the crust thin enough.  Andy might have to learn the art of pizza tossing; Lord help us all!
