Tell me about it!
Nothing exciting. Once in a while they order pizza at the office if there is a Sales event. I never eat it there as I bring my lunch everyday that fits in my diet. There is always extra pizza left over that nobody wants so I bag it up, take it home, and throw it in the freezer.

We have found the best way to re-heat it is in a flat griddle pan with a tin-foil tent. It almost tastes like fresh take-out. (And definitely hotter!)

Since we have moved, every time we order pizza (maybe once every two months), we have gone to a different pizzaria. We have been keeping track and grading them. I think we're up to about nine different places.

Local retro-style Old-Vegas restaurant near us is Casa di Amore. They make amazing pizza and since on Happy Hour it's half price, we've eaten more pizza lately than ever. I like it the next morning with addition of scrambled eggs and bacon!! Pop it in the toaster oven and crisp it up, then layer some scrambled eggs and crumble bacon on top. YUM. However, since there's no leftover pizza this morning, it's Chicken and Dumplings again!! Also YUM.

As I posted on Easter, that's the day we got some snow here in MA. Crazy couple of days...

Local brewery wants to be a neighborhood pub and is doing quite well at it. So they are brewing beer and making pizza. I was talking to a new neighbor and he mentioned the "new" pizza place. Turns out it was the brewery. He likes beer but what gets him and his family in the door is the pizza.

I have had very few foods labelled "pizza" that I did not like. I have, however, had many "pizzas" that need to be called something else because the common name invites a misleading comparison.

Back in the mid 80’s I seen a couple inches come down in Norristown, PA near Egypt Road in April! Couldn’t believe my eyes.

A bit farther north into New York but I would say that almost half of the "kids dressed up for Easter services on Sunday Morning" pictures from my youth have snow in them.

It's kind of interesting how people get attached to their regional pizza.

Though I've never lived in Chicago, that's my favorite (deep-dish) pizza. Having said that, deep-dish is a big meal.

Our New England pizza is not thin like New York pizza, but it's not deep either. I like it, but I actually prefer either New York style or Chicago style.
Yup. Most MA pizza is somewhere in the middle. I depends (for me) on who makes it, and even which DAY the same place makes pizza! That said, I really like most pizzas.

Pizzas are like guitars (yeah, OK, they are greasier).

Many different styles, made in different places. Some are blah, some make you smile, some make you scream "Yes!"

No matter how many you try, another better one may be just around the corner. The debates about taste are enjoyed and the search never ends.

But some favorites are never forgotten.
