This pizza party won’t leave you with a guilty calorie hangover. From Deliciously Ella Every Day.

Makes 2 large pizza crusts

Serves 4–6

1/4 cup chia seeds
2 heads of cauliflower (about 21/4 pounds total), roughly chopped scant 1 cup Apple Puree
13/4 cups plus 2 tablespoons brown rice flour or buckwheat flour
juice of 2 lemons
2 tablespoons tamari
salt
4 teaspoons dried oregano
4 teaspoons dried basil

For the toppings, I like:
tomato paste
sliced tomatoes
canned corn
sliced mushrooms
fresh basil leaves
handful of arugula
salt and pepper
olive oil

Place the chia seeds in a bowl with a scant 1 1/4 cups of water. Leave for 10–15 minutes, until the chia has formed a gel.

Preheat the oven to 400°F (convection 350°F).

Place the cauliflower in a food processor and blend it until a flour-like substance forms; this should take about a minute (you may need to do this in 2 batches). Place in a nut milk bag and knead out excess water: it may take a few minutes but it’s a really important step, so please don’t skip it!

Add the cauliflower to a mixing bowl with the chia and apple puree and stir until blended. Mix in the flour, lemon juice, tamari, salt and dried herbs. Slowly pour in 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons of ice-cold water, using your hands to mix it to a sticky dough. Divide the dough into 2 pieces.

Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and spread each piece of dough out over it, to form a pizza base. Bake the crusts for 20–30 minutes.

Once they are firm and slightly crispy, add the tomato paste and your toppings (except any fresh herbs such as basil or arugula), then cook for another 5–10 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, any fresh herbs and a drizzle of olive oil, then slice and serve!

Kitchen Know-How
I know it sounds strange to tell you to take the water out of the cauliflower and then add more water to the mixture, but—trust me—it’s vital for the recipe to work, as it means you get exactly the right amount of liquid needed for the crust to bake properly.

In I Suck at Relationships So You Don’t Have To, my therapist and renowned psychologist Dr. Xavier Amador, Ph.D offers his tips on how to best work through a conflict with your partner.

No one wants to fight when one or both sides fight dirty: name-calling, insults. This always ends with silence, sulking, or screaming. Fights hurt relationships when we make the other person defensive. This is toxic fighting. Instead, practice the 7 habits to healthy fighting from my book I’m Right, You’re Wrong, Now What? and focus on your contribution, not his. You can’t control what he does but you can learn to stop throwing gasoline on the fire.

The 7 Habits to Healthy Fighting

1. Stop insisting you’re right. If you’ve said your piece twice and he still doesn’t get it, it’s time to stop.

2. Don’t engage in insults or name-calling. “That’s stupid,” “Youre an idiot,” “You don’t care,” “Bastard,” and worse just lead to defenses going up.

3. Pick the right time. Don’t argue drunk, when he’s exhausted and trying to sleep, when he’s trying to rush out the door to work, etc. Use common sense. It can wait.

4. Never use absolutes. “You always…” or “You never…” tell him he’s been tried, found guilty as charged, and convicted. Expect an angry defense.

5. Don’t “kitchen-sink it.” If you’re upset about last night, don’t bring up last Tuesday, last week, or last month. And don’t add other complaints. Fight one battle at a time. Throwing everything in but the kitchen sink escalates a single argument into a war.

6. Listen without defending. If you’re defensive, he will be defensive. He won’t feel heard and he won’t be interested in hearing you because he will be busy defending himself.

7. Reflect back what you have heard. Instead of a boxing match where you block and counterpunch, practice verbal Jujitsu. If he insults you, reflect it back. “So you’re saying I’m being unreasonable? Is that right?” He will feel heard, calmer, and off balance.

After more than a decade of organizing people’s homes and offices, there are certain things that I’ve often wished never existed. The ubiquity of these, and the speed at which I do away with them, has me convinced that the world would truly be a better place if I never saw another one.

Sounds harsh, but read on, and I’m sure you’ll agree. Here are my top ten:

1. Party favors— It’s bad enough that children today get trophies for playing on a team and getting a haircut, but do we have to give them trophies for attending parties? Does anyone need a trophy saying, “I Had Fun at Ethan’s 6th Birthday Party”? Does anyone need a bag of cheap, plastic crap or candy after having cake and ice cream? Why are we bribing children to come to parties?

2. Reply-all emails—Unless I’m the one organizing the meeting, bake sale, or party, I don’t need to know that you’re coming, too.

3. Tote bags—Used for anything other than toting. If it’s stuffed with junk in your closet then it’s no longer a tote bag—it’s a garbage bag.

4. Monogrammed gifts—They can’t be returned. And people have a very hard time discarding anything with their name or their child’s name on it. Even when they don’t want it. Need I say more?

5. “Economy” sizes—They’re the opposite of economy. Unless you’re raising the Gosselin eight, how much ketchup can you really use by the expiration date?

6. Paint your own pottery—Slapping paint on a pre-made ceramic is not creating art. It’s creating junk…that’s expensive… that your child will then want to display. Find another way to entertain your child.

7. Poster board—Or rather, school projects on poster board. A three year old can navigate an i-Pad, so a school age child can certainly figure out how to use Power Point.

8. Pedestal sinks—Where are you supposed to put the toilet paper and extra soap?

9. School half days—Either give the children a day off, or keep them all day. Anything in between is annoying and hard to plan around. And while we’re at it, let’s also eliminate parent participation events that start in the middle of the day. Most parents work, and it’s convenient for no one, stressful for everyone.

10. Work parties—That’s an oxymoron if I ever heard one.
