Was Once Enough?
I didn’t get a good picture – maybe that was my subconscious speaking. The first bite was great, but by the end of the slice I wasn’t interested in more. Yes, those are French fries. With melted cheese curds. And gravy replacing tomato sauce. A poutine pizza. I had this creation while on vacation in […]
Figuring It Out
I think I know the answers. There’s a certain logic when you think of it. I don’t think that helps me understand women though. Or men for that matter.
Unintended
The COVID-19 pandemic changed the way we do some things. This was brought home to me when I looked out my front door Saturday morning to check snowfall accumulation and saw a pizza box sitting on my front porch. Obviously the delivery person had knocked on the door, then placed the pizza, and a bag […]
Gotta Have Choices
Family members like different toppings, so I made two pizzas. The truth is, I don’t like veggies on my pizza. No-one else in the family has problems with them. They would eat my all-meat version, but they prefer some variety. Both tasted delicious according to those who sampled them. What are your favorite pizza toppings? […]
Pizza Time Again
I probably shouldn’t work on this blog when I am hungry. It can lead to strange results. It was late afternoon Tuesday when I was pondering what to do about today’s post. Finish something I had started previously? Write something new? Recycle a classic? I was leaning towards something new. I have a coupole of […]
Tasty Confusion
For me it was a new twist on pizza-making. I think I liked it. But it did take me aback at first. Do you see what they have done with this one? It was at Zeus 2, my favorite pizzeria in Germany. It is fairly new, an offshoot of Zeus Pizza which has been running […]
You Can’t Hear The Difference
Pretty much everyone in North America knows peperoni, that mildly spicy Italian sausage that is the first meat you would add to a pizza. I usually take my pizza with just sauce and cheese, but if I want a little variety, I ask for pepperoni. But not in Germany. What a difference a “p” makes. […]
Conundrum
A friend brought me a newspaper from the airport lounge. I don’t get to see many physical English-language papers in the depths of the Black Forest, so I was very grateful. It was the Gulf News, which is published in the United Arab Emirates. It appears aimed at the expatriate population there, especially those from […]
Pizza Time
The guidebook says this is the place. Not the birthplace of pizza, but where it was perfected. I guess you could call our visit to Naples a pilgrimage. Antica Pizzeria de la Michelle has moved from its original location, but that doesn’t matter. The recipe is the same, and after all, the move did take […]
Is Tradition Important?
Who cares about tradition? The Pope misses his late night pizza runs, which I guess is his tradition. In a recent interview the Pope Francis I revealed that he doesn’t expect to be pope for very long, maybe three to five years. He has already been sitting on St. Peter’s throne for two. And thus […]
