Here are photos of my cute granddaughter Sienna when she visited us in South Africa In 2012. We went to an Italian restaurant and in her unexpected ‘role‘ as chef, she was thrilled to be able to make her own pizza. She first had to ‘roll’ out the dough.
It was an exciting experience for her, being able to add her own toppings.
She declared the finished masterpiece very yummy.
It’s really good at the moment to look back through travel photos which bring back happy memories. Wishing you all a relaxing Sunday.

Very pretty. She will break a few hearts for sure. It must have been quite a thrill for her. An experience she will remember all her life…
Just read a comment above. 16? OMG. She will break many hearts… 😉
Fantastic! What a fun experience. She must be all grown up now. 😊
Thanks, Lisa. Yes, she’ll be sweet sixteen in October.
My granddaughter will be sweet sixteen in June. Ugh! Where has the time gone? 🙂
I also wonder. My eldest granddaughter is 25 already. 😳
OMG! My oldest grandchild is the 15 year old. My youngest child will be 29 this year. Crazy to think about. 🙂
A lovely memory Sylvia ! I bet many a pizza has been created by Sienna since that day 🙂 I read further up in comments it hopefully won’t be too long before you have a family get together . Hurrah to that xx
Thanks so much, Poppy. Yes, all the grand kids love pizza. I’m so looking forward to their visit. It’s been such a long time. xxx
A double hit Sylvia, how clever! And she is so very pretty!! Yes, because of the pandemic travel memories make us very glad to have been photographers back in the day, don’t they?!.
Thanks so much, Tina. Sienna is such a sweetheart.
She is so pretty Sylvia!

She’s adorable 💞
Thanks so much. I agree with you and I’m not biased at all. 🙂

Your granddaughter is adorable, Sylvia. I bet she was thrilled to make her own pizza. 🙂 Fun times remembered.

She is cute.. That was such a win when they allowed children to make a pizza.. 😉
Thanks, Lisa. It was a lovely surprise as we didn’t expect this to happen. 🙂
Now there’s the look excitement! Must be her ‘first’ pizza. wow!
Her first time making one, Eddie. 😀
Lovely photo Sylvia, her expression and smile reminds me of students I taught about that age, so enthusiastic! They grow up so quickly! You must miss not being able to see her and the rest of the family. It will happen one day!
Thanks so much, Gerrie. Yes, it was a lovely age. Everything was such a treat for her. 🙂 Our son informed us last week that hes booked there flights down here for Easter and his birthday. It will be great to see them all, but I’m a bit apprehensive, but I’m sure it will all work out.
I’m sure it will work out by Easter, very exciting to see the family.
Fun stuff!
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, Nancy. 🙂
So cute – what a happy time!
Thank you so much. 🙂
You have the best photos, Sylvia. How wonderful to be able to relive this poignant moment. I am so glad you are going back in your photo memories. Today, we were looking through some boxes that were in storage and I found a treasure trove of my Father’s photos slides that I’m going to be looking through in the coming months. It is a reminder that the photo memories we make today, will give pleasure to future generations. Sending hugs and much love!!!
Thanks so much, Rebecca. How wonderful to find your father’s photographic treasure trove. I wish you much joy as you explore your family’s memorable moments captured on film. xxx
Love it!
Thank you.
Happy memories!
Indeed. Thanks, Carol. 🙂
Fantastic.Well done.
Thanks, Marylou.
What wonderful memories of your sweet granddaughter. Hoping you get to be together again soon. XO
Thanks, Sue. My son called last week to say he’s booked their air tickets down here for April 1st.
That’s wonderful! So happy for you all.
Hi S
This was a great take in role and roll!
And mmmmm
How fun to have pizza workshops like this
Even though the hair net might not do much good with all that dangling hair – just kidding – but they tried – hahah and her smile is gorgeous
Thanks, Yvette. Everyone else in the kitchen had their hair fully covered and the guy assisting her had a net even though he was bald. 😅
Hahaha
Well even before Covid I heard that the nose is an important area to cover as well – and a lot of food prep places wore masks before we all stated to
That’s so cute! 🙂
Thanks, Lynette.
Lovely!
Thanks, Sue.
Those are wonderful memories! Glad you caught them on camera for her!
Thanks, Lavinia. She’s so adorable.
Looks like lots of fun, Sylvia, and you’re right about going back and looking through photos I’ve been doing a lot of that recently for a variety of reasons and it brings back lots of good memories, but unfortunately also the urge to travel. 🙂
janet
I so agree, Janet. I have itchy feet most of the time now.

Thanks so much, Lola. 😘
Oh my, she is adorable, Sylvia. I love the hat! xo
Thanks so much, Jill. I’m sure we could find you a hat like that. 😅
🙂
How lovely, looking good!
Thanks, Ute.
Excellent
Thanks, Sheree. 🙂
Pleasure
She certainly looks pleased with her creation.
Thanks, Jackie. She was very proud of herself. 🙂
16! 🙂 🙂 One of the few people who can wear one of those silly hats well!
You’re so right, Jo. 😀
Oh, how she’s grown.
Absolutely. She’ll be sweet sixteen this year. Hard to believe. 🙂
She looks so happy.
Thank you. She has a beautiful smile.
