[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m older but I just enjoy being invited and enjoying food and time with friends.  I’m even fine with water to drink.  It’s about the company.[/quote]

I'm older too and I'd much rather stay at home, eat what I want and drink my good wine. I don't enjoy the company of cheap skates. To each her own. [/quote]

Homemade pizzas like this aren't cheap. And their labor intensive for the host: making the dough (or buying and dividing the dough); making the sauce(s); cutting up all the toppings; investment in the oven and the accessories and the fuel. This sort of meal is akin to raclette or fondue. It's a social meal.

But I don't enjoy being around people so narrow-minded about experiences so I'd be thankful you won't be coming.[/quote]

This is so weird. No one is saying it's a bad party. (Well, maybe the one person who doesn't seem to like people anyway.) It's about doing something that is labor intensive, like a game, that not everyone wants to do on their Saturday night after a long week. Maybe they do. Maybe they don't. They just need to know what they're getting into and get to make a choice as to how they spend their night out.[/quote]
Labor intensive?  Good Lord.

Sure, the host should have mentioned it, but OP's reacrion is still weird.  [/quote]

It is labor-intensive. And super impractical unless you have 5 ovens going at the same time. It's fine if you are planning on everyone eating at different times and if people know before hand what to expect. [/quote]

It's less than 5 minutes of work. Labor-intensive, are you mad?[/quote]

Tell me you've never made proper homemade pizza, without telling me.......[/quote]

The dough was pre-made, genius. Roll it out (2 minutes?) and throw some toppings on it (about a minute). I mean, seriously.[/quote]

Yeah, you have no idea how to make pizza properly. [/quote]

Considering the pizza shops get the dough shaped in about 90 seconds… you have no idea how to make pizza properly if you think it’s that labor intensive after the dough and sauce are made and toppings chopped up.[/quote]
