\"\"<\/a>No idea why I’m making a “pursed lips” face but there it is.\u00a0 You can see all the toppings for the pizza behind me prepped and ready to go!\u00a0 Whooo!<\/p>\n

You guys I was so excited for pizza this week it was ridiculous!\u00a0 Since I was out last week with the stomach whatever we didn’t have pizza.\u00a0 I have been looking forward to last night since the previous Sunday!<\/p>\n

How has everyone’s week been?\u00a0 Mine has been not as productive as I would have liked.\u00a0 We got stuff done around the house, like the last bit of yard work to winterize the yard.\u00a0 That includes pulling up dead plants, raking leaves, and one last mow for the season.\u00a0 I did the plants and leaves in the backyard while Scott mowed and did the leaves in the front yard.<\/p>\n

We’re lucky that our township does leaf pickup so we just have to pile them by the curb and they come to remove them.\u00a0 However I think they might have forgotten about us this time around.\u00a0 They came down our street and put all the leaves on the road but they never came back to pick them up.\u00a0 Whooops!\u00a0 I hope they remedy that soon!<\/p>\n

Okay, so let’s talk pizza.\u00a0 Not only was I excited to just eat pizza but I was also excited about one of the toppings that was going on the pizza.<\/p>\n

Banana peppers!!!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Come to mama my pretties!<\/p>\n

Banana peppers are one of my super favorite toppings for pizza ever.\u00a0 I stopped buying them though because all jars of peppers I found all contained Yellow #5 as an additive.\u00a0 I have no idea why either.\u00a0 I mean, banana peppers are already that bright yellow to begin with and pickling them makes them even more bright.\u00a0 Why the color additive?<\/p>\n

However I missed them so much it hurt.<\/p>\n

So I said “screw it” and I bought some banana peppers with the best ingredients I could find and since Yellow #5 was the last ingredient, it means it is the least prominent.\u00a0 So here they are in all their yellow additive glory on my pizza.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Ta-da!\u00a0 Pizza!<\/p>\n
