while I lived in Ak. I made up some starter and one Christmas eve party I had for family and friends I had made up a whole bunch of small 12" pizza crusts, which I froze, the night of the party I had a line of small bowls lined up on the counter, sauce, cheese, hamberger, sausage, olives, peppers, onions, whatever you like on your pizza. Then as each guest came in they made their own pizza and popped it in the oven and set a timer. Had a cutting board, and pizza cutter out ready for them and plates for them to plate their pizza, and best of all I just sat back and rested and enjoyed visiting with my family and friends not spending all my time in the kitchen.
I made a lot of sourdough bread while we lived up north.
