That's Amore!

I am at least the second person in line to copycat this pizza party idea, but I figured the brains behind it wouldn't mind too much because you know what they say...imitation is the greatest compliment! : ) Since we were just getting our feet wet, we decided it was probably best to keep things kind of simple and just have Gigi and Grandad over as our 'pizza party' guinea pigs. Little did we know that Grandad would have such sophisticated topping choices! I mean, pineapple, Grandad? Come on! Thankfully, we were able to reign him in (with only some mild chiding) and then it was smooth sailing from there. Well...it was smooth sailing despite the line drive to the full wine glasses, the upside down pizza on the oven door, the boys' unhealthy obsession with cheese, and the heated arguments about pepperoni placement. And no, it was not the boys who were arguing. : ) We all had a great time and surprisingly, our pizza pies actually turned out darn good. I definitely see a pizza party #2 in our future!

This is probably a very dumb and basic question, but how'd you make the dough? Or did you do a store-bought crust?

What a brilliant idea! My personal vote for the BEST and easiest crusts are from Central Market (CM brand) - they're frozen and topping-less and bake in just 8 min! They're super thin and I think they taste homemade. By the way...Leo and the kids and I make a mean pizza - maybe we should combine our pizza building skills sometime?

Who are those hot women behind those pepperoni's??? BTW we did discover that pepperoni is great for dark circles under your eyes!!!
Just place over you eyes and voila you cannot see the circles...
