~whilst the pizza is cooking, get a map out or a globe, and look up Italy in Europe – talk about the fact that Italy is where pizza originally came from – what other foods come from Italy?
~you can add all sots of combinations to the top of the pizza, why not try mozarella/ham or pepporoni or ham/pineapple…the choice is endless!!! explore…
