Barry has a deep, deep love for pizza and crackers so he was overjoyed to learn that pizza flavored cracker existed. They aren’t really pizza flavored, just sun-dried tomato & oregano, and super disgusting tasting and smelling, in my opinion. It has now become a running joke between all of us, because the girls seem to think that having pizza crackers in the house is hilarious….Barry does a ridiculous happy dance and I make a big deal of how gross and stinky they are. Because they are exactly that: gross and stinky.
I was making some super delicious pumpkin bread recently and was in the very final stages of putting the loaves into the oven. I noticed a little square piece of something poking out of one of the pans. I swiped it out and pinched it, thinking it was probably some hard flour or sugar. I was sooooooooo freakin’ wrong.
It was a pizza cracker.
I rinsed it off and sniffed it. Half of a disgusting pizza cracker had somehow made it into my loaf of pumpkin yummy-sauce dish. Yuck.
I called the girls into the kitchen and asked them if they knew how a pizza cracker had landed in my pumpkin loaf, when they hadn’t helped me and we hadn’t had any pizza crackers in a few days. Maggie told me, as a matter of fact, when they’d been working on rolling out pizza dough the other day, Audrey had dropped a ‘few’ pizza crackers in our flour bin.
Ummm….what?
Was there pizza crackers floating around in my dish of yummy pumpkin bread? Gaaaa-rooosss.
I didn’t taste any pizza crackers or tones of sun-dried tomatoes in my pumpkin bread, so I’m pretty sure I grabbed the only one that made it into that batch. I also learned to love these pictures I took of them on the day that they were rolling out the pizza dough – and dropping gross crackers into the flour – even more. You can tell they got a little out of control and a reminder from Barry was needed.
On second thought, maybe he’s the one telling them to drop some pizza crackers into the flour bin.
