 Mr. Grande,
 Sorry, I haven't made a pizza yet. I need to purchase a peel. Can I substitute something else to use for the peel, until I purchase one? I'll definitely be trying one of your pizza recipes soon. I have never ate a pizza with stewed tomatoes as the sauce.
 Thank you,
 Betty
 
 My Response:
 
 Hi Betty, you certainly do not need a peel to make god pizza.
 
 I used a cookie sheet, and then a regular pizza pan, for years before I got a peel.
 
 My pizza's all turned out great.
 
 If you do not have a peel, you could do what my friend Espo
 did. I do not recommend this, but he claims it worked.
 
 
 He used a piece of thick cardboard to slide the pizza on and
 off the stone.
 
 Please, don't do what Espo did!
 
 I say use a cookie sheet or pizza pan. It will work fine.
 Then when you want, get a peel. Though a peel is not essential to make good pizza.
