Hi. I am Pete. My favorite meal of the week is pizza on Friday night. My family and I make it together. Making our own pizza is much cheaper than buying one from a restaurant. It is also a lot of fun.

We start with a round pizza base. My mom puts tomato sauce on it. I like to add cheese. My dad's job is to cut the vegetables, like peppers and mushrooms. Everyone adds their favorite toppings. My little brother loves pineapple on his pizza, but I think that is a strange choice!

We put the pizza in the hot oven for about fifteen minutes. When it is ready, the cheese is melted and the whole house smells wonderful. We all sit together at the table to enjoy our delicious meal. It's the perfect way to start the weekend.
