Guest guest Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 Take-out pizza or homemade? It's good either way ;-) A particularly pizza crazed friend of mine once said when we passed a pizza place on our way to another type of lunch restaurant: "Hey, maybe we should have pizza for lunch, it's been quite a while since we had pizza." The rest of us, who were his wife, and myself, looked at him quite funny, and then his wife said: "Ehhmmm. You do remember that you served and Reb your own homemade pizza for dinner last night, don't you?"He said: "Homemade pizza, yes, but that's a whole other thing!"He also took his wife on holiday to Sicily once, so that he could have real, authentic Sicilian pizza on Sicily... And could always tell what was special about the ways pizza was made and served in just about any country he had been to...

Guest guest Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 Take-out. I asked for 2 pies; one with pepperoni for the kids; the other I asked for thin crust, and had extra cheese on that one. $34! for 2 pizzas! They ARE good, but much more expensive than making it yourself.That's really something they went to Sicily. Did he say if the pizza was much different here than there?love,KateTo: MSersLife Sent: Wed, June 8, 2011 4:31:43 AMSubject: Re: Summer soup! - for Kate Take-out pizza or homemade?

Guest guest Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 Kate where did you go that you had to pay $34 for two pizzas? Our local pizza place has 2 lg for $15.95 Mon. thru Thur. They have one that is super sized. Its so big you have to tilt the box side ways to get it through the door. it feeds a LOT of people. Thats I believe $24.

Guest guest Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 I don't know what to say...it's NY for Pete's sake! EVERYTHING is expensive here, nne, unfortunately. The only place that has a deal is Dominoes. It's not very good, though, so we usually opt for the more expensive one, which is very good.That sounds like a real deal where you are, nne!By the way, how much is gas by you? It's $4.29 here. Just wondering how much folks pay for it.love to you and Chuck,KateTo: mserslife Sent: Wed, June 8, 2011 8:56:21 AMSubject: Re: Summer soup! - for Kate Kate where did you go that you had to pay $34 for two pizzas?

Guest guest Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 The worst of this is, energy assistance actually shut down after May 31st - so we hadn't even gotten our bill showing our first air conditioner usage. We had one lower bill that was from no a/c, no furnace usage, the weather's been so spotty here. Tina  My power bill this month was $113, and for next month it is already in, will be $136.        ~*~Hugs~*~ ~*~Akiba~*~ Pragmatic Visionary http://www.affiliates-natural-salt-lamps.com/pages/156.php -------Original Message------- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
