Make your own lunch day!!!

Today we went to a friends house for a play day and the children had a go at making their own pizzas ~ we cheated slightly and bought the bases ~ but the children added the tomato puree and the cheese and chose their toppings.

Here are Dan and Lauren at the very start ~ with their pizza bases ~ ready to get started!!


Lauren piling on the tomato puree ~ lucky she is a tomatoey kind of girl ha ha !!!
Daniel adding his cheese and other toppings....
Lauren with her finished pizza ~ she ate every last piece ~ so it must have been nice!!
Dan chose sausage and salami ~ he doesn't like peppers or tomatoes ~ so no 'healthy' toppings for this boy ha ha !!!!!

There were 8 children who made pizzas in total ~ I have 5 to look after this week (including Dan and Lauren) and my friend has 3 ~ so it was slightly hectic at times ~ but the children all did a great job and had alot of fun too!!

Tomorrow we are going to have a go at getting the children to make a chocolate brownie tray bake and then let them decorate it once it has the icing on ~ we have bought smarties and jelly tots and some chocolate sprinkles ~ so that should be more fun for them.......last time we attempted a cake make and decorate session ~ the children ate most of the sweeties before we managed to get them on the cakes ha ha !!!

Half term is going really well and the weather has been dry and suprisingly mild ~ so that has helped as the children have been able to get out in the garden and burn off some excess energy!

There was no weigh in for me this week ~ as the session was being held at lunch time (for some unknown reason!!) and obviously with 5 children that was just not possible to attend! It is back to the usual time in the evening next week ~ so I will hopefully have a good report for you ~ of at least another pound having upped and left! According to my scales I have lost weight this week ~ but the scales at the weigh in are more accurate ~ so I will wait until next week before I comment tee hee!! I am very nearly where I want to be ~ and this last week I finally managed to fit into a size 10 pair of jeans (not sure what size that is in the US and Australia etc !!) ~ which was what I originally wanted to achieve......BUT ~ I know what I am like ~ I reach one goal and then set myself another ~ I think that I will shift a few more pounds and then get some serious toning up done ~ as believe me ~ those days of things 'pinging' back into place after losing weight ~ are LONG GONE!! Tee Hee!!!
