the gift that keeps on giving

The new pizza stone that Tom got for Christmas (once I remembered it and pulled it out from under the bed), has produced some of the best pizza we've ever had. The picture doesn't do it justice, and that's the pan that was used to slide it on to the stone, not the stone, which I didn't get a picture of.
As good, if not better, is the stollen he made, which baked beautifully on the stone.
  
He used a recipe out of our old Joy of Cooking, which is at least 40 years old. Eggs, butter, all the good ingredients, without any of those cholesterol worries.
