A good pizza sauce makes ALL the difference in the flavor and end result of your dish. Personally, I've not found any commercially processed pizza sauces that don't taste.... fake, so I made my own. I'm not a huge fan of tomatoes in a can as they tend to taste a bit metallic, but you use what you've got and it's 1000 times better than storebought. Fresh tomatoes are in season right now though, so if you can get them fresh, more power to ya!

When I studied Anthropology in college, I learned that teeth have been indicators of economic status just about forever. Archaeologists look at the teeth in ancient skeletons and know who the rich were based on their tooth decay. During the Renaissance period, it became fashionable for women to blacken their teeth to look like they were better off than they were, because the royals and aristocrats, who could afford sugar and sweets, had more rotten and missing teeth than the poor.

Daniela Volker’s documentary The Commandant’s Shadow (now streaming on Max) is a sister film to Jonathan Glazer’s riveting Oscar winner The Zone of Interest. The latter dramatized how Nazi Commandant Rudolf Hoss and his family went about their daily idyll mere meters from the Auschwitz concentration camp; the former gets an audience with Hoss’ son and grandson so they may reflect on the notion of generational guilt. That idea extends to a parallel story of an Auschwitz survivor and her daughter, who wrestle with their own trauma – and then the documentary sees these two stories intersect in a heartbreaking,...
