Monday night's dinner: Roasted Garlic White Pizza with Garlic Sauce.

- My Own Invention
I think I'm a pretty good cook. I can most certainly follow directions. With few exceptions, recipes turn out as they're supposed to. And occasionaly, I like to just make things up. Maybe I have ingredients that need to be used. Perhaps I'm...
