| Psocids on wheat grains. Small, no? |
Last night I made a kickass pizza. Lots of fresh garlic, red
onion, Italian sausage, some mozzarella and parmesian cheese, red pepper
flakes, Mexican oregano, marinara and a little salt and black pepper. Ok so I
cheated a little on the crust. I bought a fresh dough crust from Publix. I got
out the flour, coated the counter, my hands and the raised dough and began to
form it. I noticed some very small crawley things on the counter and thought “Crap!!
Psocids in the flour!!” Closer look: yup, Psocids. (

I asked her if she minded a few in the pizza and she said not really, after all they are tiny and are everywhere anyway. (Every day I ask myself how could I have been so very lucky.)
Baked at 475, the pizza didn’t take long. What a great
mixture of flavors and textures. I wonder which one was “Psocid”?
