I do believe I will as I have all the simple ingredients. Naan bread, sauce, mozzarella and venison pepperoni.

I almost got a pizza this afternoon, but I worked out and thought, "Why ruin the workout by downing the majority of a large Pepperoni Magnifico from Marco's?"

So I made a pot of spaghetti sauce instead. At least I kept it Italian!!! Razz

I've never had Jet's pizza before so I decided to try their 20% off national pizza day special and order a 4 corner Detroit Pizza.

What is proper Detroit Pizza etiquette - am I supposed to steal someone's tires and car stereo while I wait for the pizza delivery or is someone supposed steal my tires and car stereo?

My experience with the local Jet's Pizza joint -- pretty decent pizza, coupled with some of the worst service imaginable.

I had ordered on the app or the website (can't remember which). Got there to pick it up. There were eight people on line, waiting patiently, while the sole counter guy was engaged in a personal conversation with a customer, the conversation having nothing at all to do with pizza.

I could see my order, ready for pickup, in the warmer behind the counter.

After more than ten minutes of observing this inane conversation with no customers being served, I walked up to the counter and announced in my outside voice, "You two need to put your gossip fest aside while there are customers waiting. Please reach behind you and hand me order # 77."

Guy gave me the stink-eye but handed me my order.

Pizza was above average for a franchise pizza joint. Pretty impressed that on a Friday night their delivery was withing 5 minutes of their estimate. Kid rung the doorbell, handed me the pizza, and was polite. Quite a departure from most delivery who leaves food on the doorstep, doesn't ring the doorbell, and leaves.

With all the stupid bullshit holidays Apple includes on my iPhone calendar, how can it be they make no mention of an important and legitimate day of celebration like National Pizza Day? Bastards.

That's good to hear, they're about halfway between our houses.
We've thought about trying them, but with 5 of us, a Costco pizza does a better job.

Today I made dough for 3 pizzas on Sunday - 2 thins and a grandma - does that count? I bought 2 Dominos pies on Wednesday and half of each is in the freezer.

Last Sunday I made 2 batches of dough - 1 for French bread and 1 for pizzas. Doughs were fine, but I got them mixed up afterwards and ended up with French bread pizzas (not half bad), and 2 dense loaves of "bread" that got fed to the birds and squirrels.

I didn't know it was Pizza Day but our Friday evening get together happened to be at Pizza Al's where I enjoyed one with fresh hot peppers, capicola, and black olives.


No car is as much fun to drive, as any motorcycle is to ride.

I just had to teach a class in Newark. I ate WAY too much pizza while I was there. It was damn good.

Uugh...shouldn't have done that.

We have Pizza Day here about once a week...

I haven't cooked anything in a cast iron frying pan *except* pizza for 20+ years, but I'll let go of them when you can pry them from my cold, dead fingers. They work *great* for deep-dish pizza.


===
I would like to apologize to anyone I have *not* offended. Please be patient. I will get to you shortly.

What happens if you set up your iPhone with Italian as your language choice?

Don't fret. Today (February 10) is Chinese New Year, so you get another bite at the apple (so to speak). The beef and broccoli is pretty good.

I tried them once and pizza was ok. I won't go back because they don't accept cash - they must know their employees can't be trusted or something? Roll Eyes

V-Tail as I recall you are about 6 foot 6. I'll bet your outside voice gets attention. I'm not 6'6" but I have a strong outside voice and I'll use hell out of it. Big Grin

6'3". My "outside voice" was developed by classroom teaching. People in the back row never had a problem hearing me. The outside voice sometimes comes in handy when I have to help people in the express checkout lanes, who have trouble counting to ten. Customers in the back of the store can hear me: "fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, ..."
