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!

Paris Olympics: U.S. Women Shined, Men Struggled on French Soil. For the first time in 20 years, the United States did not reach 30 medals in the pool at the Paris Games. With eight gold medals, the Americans had their lowest number of wins since the 1988 Olympics, and their tally of golds was halved from eight years ago in Rio de Janeiro, a Games which featured three fewer events. For most of the competition, Australia looked poised to win more golds than the U.S., only for the Americans to go on a mini-run in the last two days of the meet to come out on top by one.
