Facciamo la pizza

So the New Year begins with a pizza cooking class at Carluccio's.  It's so nice to be able to take Zoe to these activities as it is certainly something that she wouldn't be doing if we were back home...and it gives is something different to do on the weekends as well, rather then just trawling through the shopping centres!!

These events are not only fun for the kids, but also a great way to meet new people and expand on your social network.  Today I was lucky to meet a fellow Australian mother who has girls around Zoe's age...yippee, so hopefully we will be seeing them around town a bit more.

Some of the ingredients for the delicious pizzas to be

Step 1: Write your name so everyone knows who you are

 Step 2: Put on apron and oversized gloves

 Step 3: Pour in flour

  Step 4: Prepare wet components

  Step 5: Combine dry and wet ingredients

  Step 6: Mix, mix, mix

  Checking out the neighbours dough

  Step 7: Flour the board

  Step 8: Flatten out the pizza base

  Getting some help from the pizza pro!!

 Waiting patiently for the next instructions

 Step 9: Spreading out the tomato paste.  Very important not to go to the edges, so we were told!!

  Step 10: Sprinkling on the cheese

  Step 11: Adding the pepperoni

 Sampling the produce

 And of course a photo with mummy

  Step 12: Cooking the pizza

 Waiting patiently

  Waiting, waiting, waiting

 Wow, I made this??

 Last but not least, EAT!!
