Chef-in-the-Making

Look what my creative son, Stephen, came up with! A clock pizza! I'm not sure where he ever got the idea, but he's been begging to make a clock pizza so we finally did it. We have number cookie cutters that we used to cut out the pepperoni. That was an ordeal in itself. Little Helper #3 (known to us as Christopher) decided that he was going to eat the pepperoni as quickly as it was cut out. Even after several warnings, he managed to get his sneaky little hand over to where our numbers were all lined up and ready to assemble. Number 3 and Number 5 were his favorites and I don't know how many times we had to cut those out just to replace the missing ones.

We had fun. The pizza was great. I wonder what these boys will want to try to create next.

That is so cute and inventive! We used to make Boo pizzas for Halloween on English muffins, using pepperoni for the B( cut outs) and olives for the oo, with a red pepper strip for the !exclamation point!

Your pizza sure looked yummy!

What a great idea! It looks YUMMY! Maybe the next time Stephen visits we can make an interesting pizza (we don't have number cookie cutters, though).

How cute! I hope he created a nice birthday cake for you today! Or even a birthday meal idea, even if you had to make it yourself. Maybe he suggested a break in the kitchen duties and told Daddy to take you out??.
Hope you had a good day.
It's also Sweetest Day here.
Happy birthday!

Hey cute! That's a great idea. I never thought about that before! I would love to eat a pizza right now, but Oscar and the boys are bringing Empanadas...Jason is here!
