IDAHO FALLS - Friday's kitchen class turned into an Italian lab. Kids learned where pizza originated, even where tomatoes come from, but the best part, how to make it.

"It was really cool because we got experience handling pizza and how to get it ready to stretch the dough and toss it up in the air and do the flour and you actually get to toss it up and just play with it," says Katie Disney, seventh grader.

Lucy's Pizzeria teamed up with an Idaho Falls Italian charity group their hoping to teach these kids a thing or two about different cultures and of course the tasty parts.

This week Gov. Otter signed a bill requiring Idaho to sue the federal government if Congress passes health care reform. What's your response to this?

  • It's great to see Idaho taking the lead on this. Someone has to stand up to what's happening in Washington.
  • We can't afford to pay for education in Idaho, but we're going to spend tax dollars to sue the feds? Ridiculous.
  • Not sure.
