Cooking instruction summary:

In a small bowl, combine the yeast with 1/4 cup lukewarm water (as warm as you can get it from the tap while still being able to stick your finger in it for a few seconds) and a pinch of sugar. Stir so that yeast dissolves. It should start to get foamy within about five minutes. If it doesn’t, then your yeast is probably dead and the dough won’t rise. Start again with new yeast. If it does, then push forward!In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the flour, remaining water, salt, olive oil, and now-foamy yeast. Mix with the dough hook attachment until just combine, then turn up speed to 4 or 5 and “knead” for five minutes or until dough is elastic.Fold dough into a ball and place in a large, greased bowl. Cover with a damp towel and let rise in a warm place for about 2 hours or until doubled in size.Punch down dough and let rest for 10 minutes. Roll out onto a pizza pan dusted with flour or cornmeal.While the dough is rising, preheat the oven to 400. Spread the butternut squash cubes out on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to combine. Sprinkle salt over squash cubes. Roast for 30-40 minutes, or until squash is tender.Increase oven temperature to 500.When the dough is ready, spread it out onto a pizza pan. Cover with the tomato sauce, leaving a 1-inch edge for the crust. Top with the mozzarella slices. Scatter the butternut squash over the top of the mozzarella. Top with the baby spinach and the crumbled feta.Bake for 10 minutes or until bottom of crust starts to brown. Let rest for 10 minutes before cutting.

Food Joke

John invited his mother over for dinner. During the meal, his mother couldn't help noticing how attractive and shapely the housekeeper was. Over the course of the evening, she started to wonder if there was more between John and the housekeeper than met the eye. Reading his mom's thoughts, John volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, my relationship with my housekeeper is purely professional." About a week later, the housekeeper came to John and said, "Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the beautiful silver gravy ladle. You don't suppose she took it, do you?" John said, "Well, I doubt it, but I'll write her a letter just to be sure." So he sat down and wrote: "Dear Mother, I'm not saying you 'did' take a gravy ladle from my house, and I'm not saying you 'did not' take a gravy ladle. But the fact remains that one has been missing ever since you were here for dinner." Several days later, John received a letter from his mother which said "Dear Son, I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with your housekeeper, and I'm not saying that you 'do not' sleep with your housekeeper. But the fact remains that if she were sleeping in her own bed, she would have found the gravy ladle by now. Love, Mom"
