Pizza Night

I love making pizza at home. The kids love putting their own toppings on the pizzas, literally watching it bake, and enjoying the food they made themselves. I've experimented with store bought crusts (pre-made dough at Trader Joe's is the best), but I wanted to learn to make it myself. Conveniently, a sister in our ward recently taught a pizza making class in her home (Thanks, Valerie)!





With a little forethought (you've got to make the dough the night before), pizza night was family fun, delicious and pretty easy...and I'm hoping it will get easier as the rest of my family learns to roll out/toss the dough so I'm not doing all the work.













Thanks to Aunt Kay who was visiting for taking all the pictures...except I didn't get any pictures of her during the short visit - dang it! (Pesto mushroom pizza - my fave. Nobody else will eat it either)
