It has been awhile since I posted about Pizza... So I figured it was high time that I revisit the subject again. Especially since I was making pizza with my niece.
Ok, I did make pizza several months ago at my other brother's place, but I had forgotten my camera. Thus there were no pictures of the happy little sauce smeared, pizza smeared faces...
I was determined not to make the same mistake twice.... So I loaded up all my goodies and a very large portion of Pizza Dough, along with my camera, and toddled myself on over to my niece's house where we had a pizza night.... :)
It was pretty much the basic pizza fair, nothing outrageous like Eggs Benedict Pizza, Squash Blossom and Leek, Fig and Rossini or Lox & Caviar. Just good old Meat & Vegetable pizza. Which is the best kind when you are consuming Cinder Cone from Dechutes brewery. ;)
According to my brother, the empty bottle makes a pretty good rolling pin too....

Your niece and nephew are adorable! And the pizza looks wonderful as usual! I need to get my pizza stone back into the oven...
ReplyDeleteHow lucky your niece and nephews are to have an uncle who makes pizza with them. You are making special memories for them. Oh, your pizzas look wonderful too.
ReplyDeleteAww, they are adorable! Nothing better than homemade pizza.
ReplyDeletePizza making as a group effort is so much fun. You have some very cute assistants. Great idea, and awesome pictures.
ReplyDeleteAwesome. Make it yourself pizza parties are a good time.
ReplyDeleteThat's so much fun. My daughter's been making the dough with me ever since she was 2 (of course noone ate her pizza at the time), now she makes heart shaped pizza (so girly :)))
ReplyDeleteAww...it looks like you all had a wonderful time! and what a lovely family you have there :)
