Talk Like a Pirate Day

"John Baur (“Ol' Chumbucket”) and Mark Summers (“Cap'n Slappy”) created this holiday on June 6, 1995. Out of respect for World War II’s D-Day, Baur and Summers chose to move the date of the holiday to September 19.

International Talk Like A Pirate Day was a low-key event until 2002 when it received media attention via syndicated humor columnist Dave Barry. Today, it is celebrated around the world as a way to raise funds for charity organizations, such as Childhood Cancer Support and Marie Curie Cancer Care."

What I used:

- Pillsbury Pizza Dough (1/3 or part of a roll; I was making a smaller version for myself, but I like how it turned out with the torn piece of dough. With the uneven edges, it looks more like a real worn out scroll of paper!)

- Tomato Sauce

- Mozzarella

- Red Peppers (X for X Marks the Spot)

- Pepperoni (cut into pieces for the gold)

- Cilantro (Palm Trees)

- Pretzel sticks (Palm Trees)

- Cream Cheese

- Black food coloring (for the path)

- Toothpick (to make sailboat with red pepper)

I didn't end up using the green pepper. The differences from the Betty Crocker version are that I used cilantro for the palm trees (vs. green peppers) and I drew out the path in cream cheese I colored black with food coloring (vs. olives). Obviously, you could do that.

As noted above, I used 1/3 or part of a roll; I was making a smaller version for myself, but I like how it turned out with the torn piece of dough. With the uneven edges, it looks more like a real worn out scroll of paper! :)
