Chapter 18

“You can help me cut these up and put them on the pizza,” Jamie said, setting a bag of bell peppers into the cart.

“I don’t like those,” Sofia said, pointing accusingly at the peppers.

“What? You don’t like peppers?”

Sofia made a face and shook her head.

“Okay…” Jamie put the bell peppers back. “How about mushrooms?”

Sofia nodded, so Jamie picked out a couple of large mushrooms instead.

“What else do you want on the pizza?” he asked her.

“Um…” Sofia looked at the shelves of fruit and veg. “Daddy likes the one with pineapple.”

Jamie laughed. “Oh, yeah, how could I forget. Okay, so we’ll have one salami and mushroom pizza, and we can do a ham and pineapple one too. Sound good?”

“Yeah!” Sofia grinned.

They picked out a packet of thinly sliced ham, and a tin of pineapple rings.

“And a dessert?” Sofia pleaded, using her puppy dog eyes on him again.
