  2. I think you win the creative award for this week! But, eeeuww, it almost looks a little too real! (Octopuses . . . octopusi? . . . are not my favorite creature!)

    1. What, you're not a cephalopod fan?! I love all octopus and squid. They are just so fascinating. And tasty- not just as pizza! The boys were actually disappointed when the octopizza on the menu board didn't mean calamari.

    1. I saw something similar on Facebook and had to try it. So I can't take credit for the original idea.

    1. Yup, I heard already from my daughter and her friend who did the post. Too much fun!

      To answer some internet concerns- there was more pepperoni and Italian sausage under the cheese. Gotta cover it up to get the look right.
      Yes, the tentacles were cheese filled. duh!
      And we happen to like black olives.
      While we do love calamari I hadn't thought to put it on pizza, interesting idea.
