Cooking instruction summary:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.For the sweet potatoes: Place the sweet potatoes in a bowl, and pour in the olive oil, salt, pepper, and rosemary. Stir to combine, then spread on a greased baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes, flipping once.For the onions: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet. Add the onions and cook for 10 minutes over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally. After 10 minutes sprinkle in the salt and sugar. Continue to cook for another 30-35 minutes, stirring occasionally and adding oil if the onions begin to stick. You can also add a bit of water if the onions look dry. Once they are caramelized, remove them from the heat and stir in the balsamic vinegar.For the sauce: In a small saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the flour and stir for 30 seconds to form a paste. Pour in the garlic, milk, salt, rosemary and nutmeg. Bring to a light boil, and whisk constantly for 5-7 minutes, until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in the cheese until smooth.Generously flour a surface, form your dough into a ball, then flatten with your hands. Use a rolling pin to roll the dough out to about 12-inch diameter. Brush some olive oil on one side. Place on the grill oil-side down, and cook for 10 minutes over medium heat (note: this will go faster if you are using a charcoal grill). Remove from the grill, and reduce the grill heat to low. Brush the other side of the dough with olive oil, then flip the dough so the cooked side is facing up. Top the pizza the cheese sauce, half of the fontina, potatoes, remaining cheese (fontina and parmesan), and an extra sprinkle of rosemary.

Food Joke

Yes, it's that magical time of the year again when the Darwin Awards are bestowed, honoring the least evolved among us. Here then, are the glorious winners. Darwin Award Winners: 1. When his 38-caliber revolver failed to fire at his intended victim during a hold-up in Long Beach, California, would-be robber James Elliot did something that can only inspire wonder. He peered down the barrel and tried the trigger again. This time it worked... And now, the honorable mentions: 2. The chef at a hotel in Switzerland lost a finger in a meat cutting machine and, after a little hopping around, submitted a claim to his insurance company. The company expecting negligence, sent out one of its men to have a look for himself. He tried the machine and lost a finger. The chef's claim was approved. 3. A man who shoveled snow for an hour to clear a space for his car during a blizzard in Chicago returned with his Vehicle to find a woman had taken the space. Understandably, he shot her. 4. After stopping for drinks at an illegal bar, a Zimbabwean bus driver found that the 20 mental patients he was supposed to be transporting from Harare to Bulawayo had escaped. Not wanting to admit his incompetence, the driver went to a nearby bus stop and offered everyone waiting there a free ride. He then delivered the passengers to the mental hospital, telling the staff that the patients were very excitable and prone to bizarre fantasies. The deception wasn't discovered for 3 days. 5. An American teenager was in the hospital recovering from serious head wounds received from an oncoming train. When asked how he received the injuries, the lad told police that he was simply trying to see how close he could get his head to a moving train before he was hit. 6. A man walked into a Louisiana Circle-K, put a $20 bill on the counter, and asked for change. When the clerk opened the cash drawer, the man pulled a gun and asked for all the cash in the register, which the clerk promptly provided. The man took the cash from the clerk and fled, leaving the $20 bill on the counter. The total amount of cash he got from the drawer...$15. 7. Seems an Arkansas guy wanted some beer pretty badly. He decided that he'd just throw a cinder block through a liquor store window, grab some booze, and run. So he lifted the cinder block and heaved it over his head at the window. The cinder block bounced back and hit the would-be thief on the head, knocking him unconscious. The liquor store window was made of Plexiglas. The whole event was caught on videotape. 8. As a female shopper exited a New York convenience store, a man grabbed her purse and ran. The clerk called 911 immediately, and the woman was able to give them a detailed description of the snatcher. Within minutes, the police apprehended the snatcher. They put him in the car and drove back to the store. The thief was then taken out of the car and told to stand there for a positive ID. To which he replied, "Yes, officer, that's her. That's the lady I stole the purse from." 9. The Ann Arbor News crime column reported that a man walked into a Burger King in Ypsilanti, Michigan, at 5 a.m., flashed a gun,demanded cash. The clerk turned him down because he said he couldn't open the cash register without a food order. When the man ordered onion rings, the clerk said they weren't available for breakfast . The man, frustrated, walked away. A 5-STAR STUPIDITY AWARD WINNER! 10. When a man attempted to siphon gasoline from a motor home parked on a Seattle street, he got much more than he bargained for. Police arrived at the scene to find a very sick man curled up next to a motor home near spilled sewage. A police spokesman said that the man admitted to trying to steal gasoline and plugged his siphon hose into the motor home's sewage tank by mistake. The owner of the vehicle declined to press charges, saying that it was the best laugh he'd ever had. In the interest of bettering human kind please share these with your friends an.
