Pizza Day

Guess what? First Tuesday of the month today. That means that my dad, sister and I got to make our homemade pizza. We used to make it every Tuesday, but for the new year we took it down to once a month. But that makes it a lot more special to have.
Don't that look good? My father makes the dough from scratch (and not just buying the dough in a baggy from the store either. I'm talking right from the beginning, with making the yeast rise and the kneading and stuff), and my twin Annette and I put the toppings on.

Personally, I think Jacoby likes the look of our pizza. He wishes he could have a slice. But he lives in Utah, and I'm all the way down in Florida. So, unfortunately, he can't. More for me, then! Nyeh! (wipe off the drool there, buddy ^,~)

Sorry that neither of us have posted here in a while. But I know that Jacoby is most likely busy with his huge, mysterioso, 100 clues project. (Check his regular blog to get in on it.) So anyway, I don't put a lot of pictures up here since I don't have the best camera in the world and I don't take many pictures of familiar things. Familiar to me, anyway.

I just want to close with a pizza joke. It's only slightly long, but it's pretty funny. My Uncle Danny told it to me when my family and I went to Israel.
-------------------
So it's lunchtime at this school, and the cafeteria lady says, "Okay kids, it's Monday and today we're having pizza." And the kids get all excited and start pounding on the table, chanting "PIZZA! PIZZA! PIZZA!" And they get their pizza.
The next day the cafeteria lady announces, "Alright, today is Tuesday kids. Guess what we're having? Pizza." The children shout and bang on the tables again, just the same as Monday. "PIZZA, PIZZA, PIZZA!"
Wednesday the lady says, "We're having pizza today, boys and girls." And they chant "Pizza, pizza, pizza." Not so loud, but they're still excited.
The following day the cafeteria lady tells the children, "Well children, today is Thursday, so guess what we're having...? Pizza!" And the kids are no longer shouting, but they still chant, "P-i-z-z-a, p-i-z-z-a, p-i-z-z-a."
Friday the cafeteria lady makes an announcement. "Now, my dears, I hope you enjoy your lunch today. We've got... Pizza!" By now the children's chants sound long and drawn out.
"P--i--z--z--a, p--i--z--z--a, p--i--z--z--a."
And of course on Saturday and Sunday, the kids get the weekend off. But then it's Monday again and the kids walk in for lunch and there's the lunch lady. She says, "Okay kids, it's Monday and today we're having pizza." And all the kids in the room go...
"PIZZA! PIZZA! PIZZA!"
-------------------
What do you think? In my opinion it's a lot better when it's told out loud than reading it. You need comedic timing, you know. You have to use an increasingly slower voice as the kids get more tired of pizza, and then an excited voice when they get pizza again. That's the funny part.
Okay. That's all I'm saying now.

*Edit* I think you should change the background around now, Jacoby. Just my opinion. Also, I don't want to be the only one posting in my book club. I'm only saying.
