Pizza, Marshmallows, and Jelly Donuts

Ok, so Max had a jelly doughnut for the very first time today, and I just had to share. The look on his face when he realized there was something yummy INSIDE his something yummy was just priceless.PhotobucketPhotobucket

Anyway, tonight was pizza night, as is every friday night. It's a tradition I stole from my friend Jenese, that she carried on from her Catholic childhood when they couldn't eat meat on fridays (although I often make meaty pizzas, lol). Usually Max and Zoe and I hike down to Ferraro's to buy dough, and then walk over to wooster square to meet Elliott and get some pre-dinner italian ice (naughty mommy). But today was a little iffy weather-wise, so we took a chance and walked into our favorite local pizza joint, Grand Apizza. We got them to sell us some dough, and a meatball too, lol. Yes, I know pizza dough is something that can be made, as well as bought, but that was not a new venture I was willing to attempt on this particular friday. (Maybe next week?) The pizza came out superb. We made one cheese, one, meatball, and one chicken-sausage and pepper pizza.

We also whipped up a cute little recipe that we found in Elliott's High Five magazine for Apple-Marshmallow happy mouths. Here's what you need:

1-2 red apples
cream cheese (we used light cream cheese)
mini-marshmallows

1) Core the apples and cut into thin slices. Leave skin on. (Obviously a grownup does this).
2) Spread a thin layer of cream cheese onto all the apple slices.
3) Stick mini marshmallows into the cream cheese on half the apples, and then top with the other half of the apples slices.

Cute, easy, yummy. PhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucket
