First time in a long time

I had time this weekend to make some pizza. I'm definitely ready to enjoy some home-cooked pies again, after about 8 weeks of not having the time to cook.

Tonight's Recipe:
1 cup white flour
2 cups whole wheat flour
1 1/3 cups warm water
1 packet yeast
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons olive oil

I cooked this at 500 degrees for about 12 minutes, and this produced a crisp crust without quite burning the cheese. The dough was workable, but the whole wheat flour makes it very brittle. Next time I'll go back to 2 cups white, 1 cup wheat.
