Month 4 day 3: Smoothies and "grilled" pizza

Today I made:
Strawberry-Guava Smoothies, Cooking Light May 2010
Veggie Grilled Pizza, Cooking Light May 2010

For brunch (well, lunch really) we had these strawberry-guava smoothies. They were pretty sweet-- I don't think you can buy guava juice that isn't only 16% juice and 84% high-fructose corn syrup :-P G was a fan. We also made the second set of turkey panini with the leftover ingredients from Wednesday.

Then we watched Iron Man 3 in Jordan's Furniture Tempur-Pedic Verizon IMAX Experience Theater (could you get anymore sponsors?) This place is ridiculous. It's more like Disneyland than a furniture store, complete with little sub-stores inside of an indoor Louisiana-themed walkway area:

The website says that there are occasional Mardi Gras FX shows with lights, smoke, and animatronics, but we weren't there when one happened. The seats are all Tempur-Pedic, so you don't get sore even if you're near the front, and there are subwoofers under every seat so you rumble with every explosion.

When we came home we made pizza, and I had a headache (maybe from all the rumbling, or the 3D glasses?) It's supposed to be grilled, but it's still not that warm out. We grilled the vegetables on our grill pan, and pre-cooked the dough on the grill pan too, but then baked it for a bit in the oven until it was all nice and crispy:
I cheated and used store-bought dough. We bought it on Wednesday, so by today it was really puffed up. Still worked fine, though. G said the pizza was "meh." We've made better pizzas before.
