How are you when it comes to change?
Are you an “arms wide open embrace change” kind of person or are you a “wrap your arms around your pillow and hide under you covers” kind of person when change comes a knockin’.
I’m a little bit of both.
I like change but it also scares the beegeez out of me.
Tonight we went downtown to the new apartments and took a couple of measurements of the rooms.
These new apartment are actually pretty old, well they aren’t old but the building they’re in is old. So I guess, technically speaking they are old? Yeah…something like that.
They’re new apartments in an old tobacco warehouse downtown. See, new apartment meets old warehouse. It’s beautiful.
Most of the walls in the apartment are plain walls with a satin white-ish paint on them, but the walls on the far end of the apartment are the original brick.
They’re gorgeous and they almost make me want to live in Danville forever…..almost.
It’s a small apartment with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a kitchen and a living room.
However I think it’ll work out perfectly for us. We need to downsize anyways and if we’re going to be living in an apartment in Wilmington I’d much rather adjust to apartment living here in VA beforehand. 🙂
Also, did I mention the skylights haha 😉 There are two of them above the kitchen. I’m in love.
I’m filling out the application as soon as I can. I’m nervous. Like REALLY nervous.
Nervous, but excited. But Nervous. We’re on the same page here right?
But you know, even though it’s going to be a small apartment it’s still going to be awesome. There is a coffee shop that just opened in the first floor of the apartment building, the farmers market is literally right across the street and the RiverTrail (walking/bike riding trail) is a street over.
However I do anticipate a lot of drunk phone calls from friends that go to the concert venue across the street on Friday nights. I may need to invest in an air mattress for the living room haha.
So what does all of that have to do with a Pizza Skillet? Nothing. Nothing at all.
I just don’t have much to say about Pizza Skillet other than it’s freaking awesome and delicious and you should eat it. haha 😉
So there’s that…..

Pizza Skillet
9/1/15
By: Angie Barrett – BigBearsWife.com
Ingredients
2 tablespoons olive oil (I used Garlic Infused Olive Oil)
1 can (13.8 oz) refrigerated pizza dough
1 cup pizza sauce
1 cup mozzarella cheese
20 Pepperonis
Directions
Pre-heat oven to 475F.
Coat the inside of a cast iron skillet with the olive oil (I used a 10 inch skillet).
Open the pizza dough and spread it into the bottom of the pan. Push the pizza dough with the back of a spoon or your fingers until it covers the entire bottom of the skillet.
Ladle the pizza sauce into the crust. Spread it out but leave the dough bare about 1/2 an inch away from the edge.
Sprinkle the cheese onto the pizza. Top with the pepperonis.
Bake for 20 minutes.
Serve hot/warm.
would you still cook it for 20 minutes if you added like peppers, shrooms, etc to 1/2 of the pizza and of course xtra cheese? Thanks
Personally I would cook the mushrooms and peppers first and then put them on the pizza. However I know a lot of people like the crunch of the peppers and semi cooked mushrooms, if that’s the case just toss them on before you put it in the oven. I like my mushrooms super soft and cooked though (and we don’t eat peppers because my husband is allergic so I think that’s going to just depend on crispness preference)
