Pizza, Pizza!

Jason & I got the privilege of babysitting my adorable niece Gabby this weekend. We decided it would be fun to make pizzas with her as a fun activity. If you've never let a 2.5-year-old play with pizza dough--go grab some...it's HILARIOUS. (as a side note, the pre-made pizza dough at Trader Joe's is excellent). She did a really great job, & seemed to have a lot of fun. We had a lot of fun getting to play with Gabby, and loved the opportunity...

Now to show the events of the evening :-)....
 
 
Gabby was not happy that I interrupted her hard work to make her pose for a picture...


We talked about different shapes the dough could turn into as we patted it out...


A few of the pizza dough shapes we ended up with :-)...


Gabby licking her "sauce schmearing" spoon...AFTER we were done schmearing sauce...


Gabby made both of these pizzas from scratch...


Gabby & Uncle Jason watching the pizzas bake & puff up...


She kept saying "Pizza done?"


Finished product :-)...and it was yummy...


Jason had to read the book we brought Gabby about 35 times...I'm pretty sure he has "Dance with Brobee" memorized now...


So normally I would have baked...but the mini dark chocolate cupcakes at Trader Joes looked too good. :-P


Gabby didn't seem to mind that they were store-bought...


Nope...didn't mind at all :-)...

Thanks for letting us come over & play Gabby!!! :-) You were a perfect angel as usual :-).
