It was a bit of a disaster actually but Brian managed to find a way to save it.<\/p>\n<p>We didn&#8217;t plan very well when we were making it. We assembled the bread on our large cutting board and by the time we were finished it had gotten so heavy that we couldn&#8217;t move it without obliterating it. We tried to use various spatulas. Even our largest spatula wasn&#8217;t big enough to lift the heavy lump. We almost scrapped the whole thing if it weren&#8217;t for Brian coming up with a brilliant idea.<\/p>\n<p>Rather than moving it, Brian devised a plan to just flip it over on to a pan. Except it looked horrible because we had jabbed it underneath so many times already with all those spatulas. So we flipped it over again and it didn&#8217;t look as bad. I&#8217;m glad Brian didn&#8217;t let us give up on it because it was delicious. At least now we know for next time that we need to assemble the bread on the pan that we shall use to bake it.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/ching\/16815069482\"  title=\"Untitled by Ching Brubaker, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7632\/16815069482_c0b4610637_z.jpg\" width=\"480\" class=\"pic\" height=\"640\" alt=\"Untitled\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B00J0KV09G\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=390957&#038;creativeASIN=B00J0KV09G&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;tag=lifeafter-20&#038;linkId=RLEX2V6VIBHGXDA2\" >Frito<\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/e\/ir?t=lifeafter-20&#038;l=as2&#038;o=1&#038;a=B00J0KV09G\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" style=\"border:none !important; margin:0px !important;\" \/> chili pie didn&#8217;t take as much work.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/ching\/16194307204\"  title=\"Untitled by Ching Brubaker, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8638\/16194307204_d354a67f43_z.jpg\" width=\"480\" class=\"pic\" height=\"640\" alt=\"Untitled\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Neither did the Papa Murphy&#8217;s pizzas. <\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/ching\/16815550292\"  title=\"Untitled by Ching Brubaker, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8595\/16815550292_16c05a0570_z.jpg\" width=\"480\" class=\"pic\" height=\"640\" alt=\"Untitled\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Pizzas are pies!
