Pizza Day has become one of my most favorite days of the month! One, because of the obvious…PIZZA. And two, eating pizza in celebration of two fabulous people.

I’m totally loving this pizza right now. It’s simple, a little sweet, a little creamy, and of course a lot crunchy. THAT CRUST!

Are you a crust person? Please say you’re a crust person. If you’re one of those people who leaves the crust, I’m not sure we can be friends. More importantly, are you a bubble person? I’m SO a bubble person. It’s the first thing I look for when I’m deciding which piece to grab!

Also, how obsessed am I with figs?! Very! They are perfect on top of this pizza!

Paired with that creamy buratta and sweet honey! To die for!

I hope you’re celebrating Pizza Day with me! And if you are, do yourself a favor and make this!
