Luee
We adopted Luee from the Humane Society in 1996. He was 2 years old, but still a pup. He has slowed down a bit; his age is catching up to him. He is the best dog anyone could ever have. Luee had to be put to sleep on April 15, 2009. Rest in Peace Pup.

CLEAN UP, CLEAN UP




Good Monday Morning Speakies:

Hoping you all enjoyed the weekend and ready to start a brand new week. Like I promised we will get into that pizza thing later on but first an important holiday today to celebrate. It is “CLEAN OUT THE REFRIGERATOR DAY” a day I’m sure all of us love so much. All those packages, containers, bottles, lunch meat, cheese and mystery food that we have to identify before it goes or is saved. Questions and more question that need answering, when did I make this or how long has this been in the back or my favorite what is it? If you are planning to clean out your refrigerator or as I call it the icebox, today is the day to do it.

We also honor Guacamole today that favorite dip of Californian’s. I tried it last year for the first time at work we had nachos, salsa and someone made homemade guacamole and it was very good. Tonight I suggest you Speakies enjoy the same perhaps with a glass of Sangria or a tangy Margarita.

Now back to that Pizza with the Works Holiday I mentioned on Friday. I was never a big fan of all that loaded stuff on a pizza, I’m usually a one or two toppings type of guy. When I was in the service a couple of guys from Jersey opened a pizza joint outside of the back gate called Snoopy’s Pizza. These guys were recently discharged and planned to live in the area. It was a pretty neat joint with picnic benches, draft beers, jukebox and sawdust on the floor. My roomy and I had a friend named Chaz a Polish guy who was a real character. One night we went out for a pizza and Chaz ordered a pizza with the works which must have had 12 or more toppings. When the guys delivered the pie, his comment was “I’m glad you are eating this thing.” Imagine a regular pizza loaded down and making it look like a deep dish pie. Like I said I’m a one or two topping guy. My favorites are pepperoni, pepperoni and onion (really good had that one at Nino’s), crumbled sausage and once in a while anchovies.

Enough for today, have a great one Guys and Dolls.

Ahhhhhh! Hungry now!

No, never with the works but I would not turn a free slice down.

Trenton pie with fresh garlic, sausage and black olives please.

The new trend is too weird. The "anything goes" pie that breaks all convention? Fun for a bit till I saw the guy shilling his pie with french fries and hot dog slices.

What ever floats your pizza boat Mr. Z, just so it don't sink mine?

SKIP: I'LL TAKE THE TRENTON PIE, MINUS THE OLIVES. THROW SOME ANCHOVIES ON THERE. GREAT FOR SODIUM INTAKE.

Hi Joe:)
I agree on Tomato Pies, I prefer them regular no extra toppings..and I add garlic salt and a dash of ground peppers which are seasonings not toppings:)

Mack: I always like my DeLorenzo's pie plain with maybe a little hot pepper on it. Papa's with garlic or anchovies.
