La pizza è un'icona della cucina italiana che ha conquistato il palato di milioni di persone in tutto il mondo. La sua origine affonda le radici nella città di Napoli, dove venne preparata per la prima volta nel XVIII secolo. La vera pizza napoletana è riconoscibile per la sua base sottile e soffice, cotta in forno a legna a temperature elevate per ottenere una crosta croccante e un centro morbido. I condimenti tipici includono pomodoro, mozzarella di bufala, basilico fresco e olio d'oliva.

Oggi, la pizza ha assunto molte varianti, come la pizza margherita, con il suo mix di sapori semplici e autentici, o la pizza marinara, che esalta l'aroma degli ingredienti di base come l'aglio e l'origano. Inoltre, ci sono pizze gourmet con combinazioni creative di ingredienti come prosciutto, funghi, rucola e formaggi speciali. 
La pizza è diventata talmente popolare che oggi è possibile trovarla in ogni angolo del mondo. Tuttavia, la tradizione e l'autenticità della vera pizza napoletana rimangono intatte e sono riconosciute come Patrimonio Immateriale dell'Umanità dall'UNESCO.
La pizza è uno dei piatti più amati e rappresentativi dell'Italia, che unisce sapori deliziosi, convivialità e tradizione. Buon appetito!

Today, I’m bringing you a tip that’s all about the magic of taking breaks—because sometimes, the best way to move forward is to pause. I know it might sound counterintuitive, but research shows otherwise. Pausing isn’t about slacking off; it’s a strategic tool that can supercharge your learning journey.

When the end of the working week arrives, it can be a little harder to keep going.

If you work from Monday to Friday, you might find yourself thinking about the weekend as your brain and body get ready to rest. You may feel that you're getting less work done.

You might even feel this way near the end of each work day.

And a study from the US has found that yes, it's true — we aren't as productive and we make more mistakes in the afternoons, especially on Fridays.

While most of us could probably have guessed that result, the researchers said most studies in the past have just asked workers about their feelings related to their productivity.

But this one actually used data based on computer use, including how fast people typed and the numbers of typos they made.

The researchers, from Texas A&M University, looked at the computer use of 789 employees working from the office of a big company in Texas.

They studied them for two years and looked at their computer use at different times of the day and week.

And they found that computer use "dropped significantly" on Fridays.

One of the researchers, Taehyun Roh, said: "Employees were less active in the afternoons, and made more typos in the afternoons — especially on Fridays."

The authors added that results like this should encourage bosses to think about flexible working arrangements or four-day working weeks to get the best from their employees.
