A first for me

Thursday night, spouse went out with his work buddies, and I always have some yummy gourmet pizzas in the freezer (I suppose the freezer oxymoronizes gourmet) for such evenings. I pulled out a mushroom one and sliced goat cheese on top. Delivered with a Heineken and Survivor, I was a happy camper. Friday morning, I was up as always at quarter to five and on the bus at quarter to six. After the saga of Friday mornings, I ride back to town with Bob, another English teacher and we go to the library to pick up movies for the weekend, (This week, I got Born into Brothels, Transgeneration, and Jupiter's Wife.) and then we eat pizza at the to-die-for pizza place in the metro station. I always get mushroom, but yesterday I got Hawaiian. It was delicious! It even had cherries on it. Then we go off to our lunchtime classes. Last night, spouse called to say he was going to dinner with a friend. I didn't want to do it, but I just didn't have it in me to make something proper. I popped open another pizza with sliced meats on it. And that's how I had pizza as my primary sustenance for two days. The only deleterious effect so far seems to be constipation. But then you already surmised that.

Pizza is the perfect food. It has something from every food group. I love Hawaiian Pizza but have never had one with cherrries. Mine have Ham and Pineapple and black and green olives and mushrooms and sausagealong with the regular cheese and sauce. Yummm!!!
Hope Spouse gets back home soon!!!

Pizza is like sex, even when it's bad it's still good.

Pizza really is a wondrous food. My favorite has sundried tomatoes, mushrooms and goat cheese on it. Yum, yum.

So what's for dinner tonight?

Ahh...perfectly good times were to be had! Sounds yummy and delicious. I love those times alone, just you and the frozen pizza, a little salad, and a beer....and a movie or TV. Doesn't get much better.

Hawaiian pizza is really good, but, like ed, I never had it with cherries.

Slapping a frozen pizza in the oven is often my quick dinner. Basically I use up all of my daily calories in one go.

Have you been to Amelio's yet? It's the best pizza in town.

I don't know about cherries on my pizza... I'm withholding judgement though until I try it.

With Pizza you have the perfect food: carbs, fats and protein. What else could you ask for?

My favorite Pizza? The "Babe" from Pizza Mitza. Bacon, Artichoke hearts,sundried tomatoes with a gorgonzola cheese sauce instead of the regular red sauce.

Yum.

Hmmmmmm. I always get my pizza with light sauce and no cheese.

Yeah, I'm a freak.

Dairy produce is becoming a theme for you, my cheesy friend.

Ahhh... Nothing like a "specialty" pizza! My favorite is called a White Pizza. No sauce, fresh mozzarella & ricotta cheeses with minced garlic, spinach and sun dried tomatoes.

Although you can't beat a slice of NY Pizza!
