embrace the camera {making pizza}




Em said it best this morning, this is why we embrace the camera every week! Thanks em!


Today we made some pizza's to fill the freezer. The freezer is looking pretty bare these days and is laking all of those freezer meals that are usually in it. I love being able to run to the freezer and grab a meal that is already prepared and just needs to be cooked.


The kids always love cooking with me and knowing that we were making pizza was even more fun for them. But waiting for the yeast and liquid to bubble was a but hard for a little girl. We lost a whole batch of pizza due to premature mixing.


A little missy girl had a hard time getting the dough started but had an even harder time letting this momma help.

Mixing wasn't her thing, but kneading that dough was.



Gosh, I think she does a better job then me. She sat there just kneading away and didn't want to stop.



Her dough came out so smooth and stretchy...it was simply perfect.



It was a bit hard explaining to the kiddo's that the pizzas were going into the freezer and were not going to be eaten til another day. So for supper we had pizza.

  9. Hello you,

    I love your photos for this post. They're fantastic!! I really enjoy cooking with my children now they're a little bit older (considerably less mess!!).

    Yours look as though they've done a great job!!

    Did you have to wash your hands to pick up your camera each time? My hands get so sticky!!
