Don't Worry, It Was For a Good Cause. . . .


Every year AJ's school has a fundraiser with a pizza joint in town. You call the store, tell them your school and teacher and they tally up all the sales. The school gets 20% of our sales back. And the class that gets the most orders gets a free pizza party.

Our school is kind of famous for its parental involvement. What can I say? We are legends in our own minds. Last year we did this and there was a bit of a learning curve on the restaurants part. The delivery drivers were a little late, the food was a little less than warm. We asked the manager after, "What went wrong? " Apparently the average school has 60 orders during fundraising night. We had close to 200. They were a bit overwhelmed.

But this year the manager has reassured us that they are prepared. It is a great fundraiser, and one night I don't have to cook dinner. It is a win/win.

So, I ordered the usual pizza, but added breadsticks and even dessert to bulk up our order. (Because $6 going to the school is soooo much better than $4.) And as you can see, Charlie liked it all. He is currently in a dipping phase. And he dipped his pizza and breadsticks in marinara sauce with each bite. He even got some in his mouth!
