For our homeschool group, Joanna & Caleb give a presentation every week on different topics. This past week's topic was family traditions. Since Joanna & Caleb are in different rooms they gave the same presentation.
Joel makes pizza pretty much every Sunday night that we are home. He began his pizza making trying to make some good ol' New York style pizza because we really missed it. There was nothing out here like it at the time.
So here are the pictures that the kids used to share our Sunday Night Dad's Pizzeria tradition.
We grind our own wheat for our bread and also for our pizza. I guess you could say that our pizza is just a little good for you!! (I think this fact was the most interesting to the parents watching.)
Of course, the rolling out of the dough...
Joel uses a pizza peel to slide the pizza in the oven onto the preheated stones in the oven. He sprinkles cornmeal on the pizza peel to keep it from sticking.
Oven's getting ready and Caleb starts to spread the sauce.
Mmmmm......Cheese!
Ready for the oven.
The pizza is going in and it's time to wait.
YUM!! One tip for making pizza - It's not done just when the cheese is melted. You want to wait till the cheese starts bubbling and even getting a little brown in some spots.

Yum! I didn't know you grind your own wheat. The girls still suggest every once in a while that we home school. On these rainy mornings it is very tempting! However, I am afraid we would spend all morning cuddling instead of studying!

The pizza looks great. And I like that paddle. Pretty cool.
