I've started a new series on my food blog for which I get menus from various
Italian restaurants and then translate and decipher them. The first one is
the pizza half of a half and half little restaurant in my town.

It occurred to me that those of you who love pizza might be inspired by some
of the pizzas they offer. Of course this place is in northern Umbria and
doesn't represent all of Italy by any stretch of the imagination, but they
do make a really good and entirely made in house pizza that stands up to
most I have ever had here and exceeds the ordinary standard.

Nope, real meals. I plan to translate it later. They actually have a
butcher's case with loins of meat and the meat guy cuts to order. Danish or
Chianina or Italian generic beef or all Italian pork. Simple, but good.

When one couldn't get much steak in the UK because of mad cow, that winter
loads of Brits came to our town... no reason why here other than it isn't
expensive I guess, and I would overhear them in that place talking in
glowing terms, like, "Did you see that steak?" "Look how think his steak
is!" "Ohmigod, this is wonderful." The beefeaters express came directly to
Fez.

How fun. :-)
And a very interesting idea.

I liked this one from the first article:

"Pizza Capricciosa used to be ³chef¹s choice² for which the maker would
put on at his design whatever he felt like and was in the kitchen.
Nowadays it is defined and has tomato, mozzarella, mushrooms, artichokes
and boiled ham on it. I like this, too, but it does seem heavy once you
are used to Italian pizzas."

That tuna and onion one sounds interesting but I think I'd rather do
anchovie. <g>

So are you scanning the menus or photographing them? Many smaller
places around here print "portable" menus on plain 8 1/2" x 11" paper,
especially if they do deliveries. Last place I worked actually had a
notebook of menus from local places that had take out or delivery.

Sometimes for lunches, one person would volunteer to drive and pick up
take out orders and the rest would pitch in to pay for that persons
lunch. "You fly, we'll pay". <g>

Peter, you get up on the wrong side of the bed or something this
morning? Giusi has been a valued poster here for quite some time!

It's common practice for some blogs to have commercial links in them.
Once I get mine set up, I have every intention of doing the same.
Webhosting costs money and using affiliates is a good way to help defray
the cost.

And no money is made unless you decide to click on those links...

And her article was a good read. :-) Gave me some new ideas for food
combos even tho' I have pretty much given pizza up due to the bread
crusts.

'This morning' is 0120hrs here.


Last time I felt the comfort of my bed was about 0300hrs yesterday.



> Giusi has been a valued poster here for quite some time!


I know it's been around for some time..... I've had 'discussions' with it
a long time ago. I worked out back then it was toxic.

AHEM!!!!!!!


I was making comment on the fact that when *some* people advertise their
website here, it's all hunky dory, but when others do the same (ie, Stu)
they get lamblasted by all the assholes under the sun for being spammers.

And the fact that 'Goosy" crossposted to a ****ing uk newsgroup puts
her/it *way* down on my 'read it' scale.

You *do* know about all the shit that has been coming through from the uk
groups, don't you?

She/it could have posted the article here, then gone off and done the same
on the other group, rather than crosspost.

With all the shite coming in here from the uk groups........ you can't
have a shot at anyone for being leery of them.

<shrugs> I have little issue with crossposting so long as it is a
RELATED group, which it was. Real trolls crosspost to motorcycle,
political, drug and sports groups! That really stirs the shit. <g>

I used to crosspost to related groups until people really bitched about
it.

You're shitting me, right??

I hadn't noticed...... Really.


What I *did* notice was that you started to speak out at some things, and the
self-appointed 'group nazis' (whom noone can speak against) started pulling
you back into line to be the nice complacent, non-confrontational person that
you usually are........ because God only knows you can't go upsetting *their*

Om..... they don't know you....... and all they want is another non-
confrontational poster to kiss their collective arses.


Now if you told me that GloriaP, Merle(??), Margaret S, maybe Janet, Felice,
Dora, Cshenk.... et al, had chosen to "point it up to me", I would have
agreed.

Because I'm sure *those* ladies would have told you that you'd stepped over
the line.

That's all well and good. If you want to do that shit, or if anyone in here
wants to do that shit....... go to the specific newsgroup, and do it.

But it doesn't need to be aired here.

The term 'related' is rather loose and frivolous.... and open to the posters
own interpretaion at the time of posting.

And what I noticed is that Peter Lucas continually changes his ID to
avoid everyone's kill files.

Such a glutton for attention... you really should work on that. Seems
that you have some issues.

Meanwhile, I can killfile them as fast as you can change them.

Thanks for removing the crosspost. I've killfiled crossposts to this
group from that uk group because there are several trolls who were
looking to stir up trouble between the two groups. There are lots of
nice people on that uk group, but the crossposters were mostly trolls.

Although, as a diabetic, pizza seems to spike my blood sugar, it's
certainly not off my diet.

Very nice post, Giusi, I liked it.
I could add a note about calzone: being it closed it is very good for take
away, since it chills down more slowly than pizza. On the other side, it
tends to develop a great humidity at the bottom, where it touches the dish
or, in case of takeaway, the cardboard box: so when you order it for
takeaway move it all on one side of the box, then at halfway towards home
just move it to the opposite side.
No excess humidity makes for a good calzone.
I don't see gorgonzola in that page, here it's some years that almost every
pizzeria lists the "pizza al gorgonzola". Many have also the "pizza
gorgonzola e funghi" and a few ones have the "pizza alla francescana",
topped with gorgonzola and porcini mushrooms, a nice fusion dish.

Can't see the kebab meat or chicken tikka one there? Sorry. A nice way
to shame the overpriced pizzas you get in London/Dublin by putting up
the price list, it's a disgrace how much you have to pay for pizza in
some places.

Pizza Salsiccia e Cipolla is now forcing me to leave my desk and go
home as it's made me too hungry.

That's a great idea, thanks! Got any menus from Rome? I loved the
pizza there and was especially enamored with the salad on a pizza
crust idea.

He has two IDs that he uses regularly, maybe a third... then there are
all the Peter spoofers. I think he changes ID depending on which
computer he uses, but I can post from different computers without
changing IDs - so I don't know why he can't/won't.

Probably more northern than this one. I use more Gorgonzola than my
neighbors by quite a lot. I have to really look if I want piccante, too.

I must admit, I have invented one here in my town. This kebab shop was also
selling pizza, small and normal ones. Once I was relly hungry and I ordered
a full kebab (at that time nobody put fries in kebabs) in a small margherita
pizza. It worked out wonderfully!

Have you tried a whole wheat or multigrain crust? I'm also diabetic and
I can eat those crusts and breads in moderation without the BG spikes.
Same with brown rice, no spikes. Strange thing is I can eat a small
amount of fried potatoes or half a medium baked potato with no spikes.
The endocrinologist I see says he suspects there are as many varieties
of diabetes as there are of arthritis.

Peter got all catty:

> I don't like Poms.

Or blacks, or Semites (including Arabs *and* Hebrews), or smokers, or smart
people, or good cooks, or people who recognize you for the shit you are, or
heterosexual people....

You've made that more than abundantly clear.

He doesn't want to. He *likes* changing his ID. Hell, he claims to change
his legal name every few years (presumably to avoid being tracked by law
enforcement).

I think I disagreed with him and didn't like his filthy language. I hate
filthy language unless a dog has hold of my ankle in a bloody grip, and then
it is unsubstitutable.

Kind of you to say that, but I know that I've not been so good at

I understand... but I really do dislike confrontation for the most part.
I get enough of that shite in RL. I don't need it here.

I really do try to be a peaceful person and sometimes I fail.
I don't like that.

This is usenet. The only real remaining anarchy on the planet. As much
as some posts irk me, I honestly prefer it that way. I think you do
too, deep inside.<g>

Well, considering their intolerance of self-defense...
It seems that it's more honorable to be a victim. I do have issues with
that.

I do miss the old Om. But you have posted that you are going through
some tough times right now, details not specified. I'll just be patient
and have faith that things will get better for you.

We don't spend any money on air conditioning (except extra gas for the
vehicles). We don't have it! Mother nature conveniently put the
Pacific Ocean about 25 miles from our house, and we have a pretty
reliable afternoon cool breeze.

Thanks.
I simply kf'd the people that were constantly launching personal attacks
for now. I know that's a bit weak-willed on my part. I should probably
just take a complete break from the list for awhile until things settle
down. It's a huge time sink anyway.

Sweet. :-)

I live a good 6 hours from the ocean.
At this point in time, I'd not want to live too close to the Gulf Coast
anyway. :-(

I really am worried about that uncapped oil well and if and when they
are going to be able to cap the darned thing!

We spent a couple of weeks in August of 1986 with friends in Kennewick,
WA. I was amazed that we had to sleep under blankets at night and that
we only turned the AC on for the two hours just after noon. I also
enjoyed fishing in the Columbia River and actually catching a silver
salmon. That was the first time I ever ate salmon that didn't come from
a can.

Here in SW Louisiana the temps, with heat index, are at or above 100F
pretty regular. The hot breezes from the Gulf bring lots of humidity
with them, today we're at 100%. If we're lucky we will get some rain
this afternoon and the humidity will actually drop a few points.

OTOH, I was amazed at how was hot and humid it was out in the *middle*
of the ocean when I took my first Caribbean cruise. It was a real
relief to get back inside where it was air-conditioned. I'm used to
bringing a sweater with me, just to take the ferry from one side of
the Bay to the other.

Forget the health food. I need all the preservatives I can get.

When I lived in San Diego, my house was about 2 miles from the ocean, but
was in the hills so we got a cool ocean breeze every night. I didn't need
any air conditioning at all.

But even more ideal for my personal temperature likes and dislikes is Ft.
Bragg, California. The temperature apparently never goes over 75F and never
goes under 50F.

It's so I can keep track of what post was made from where.

I have 3 "ID's".

There's this one, the 'downstairs.on.the.laptop' one, and the other one
that is rarely used.... 'away.from.home'.


Lepper should be able to killfile those three, if he feels the need. And
everyone has been told *ad nauseum* which is the forger using my
name...... if he's too stupid to be able to read an ID 'address' then he
shouldn't whinge and bitch about it, he should either go to a "Computers
for Seniors" class, or give his computer away to a 6 year old who will be
able to use it properly.

Pain is your friend, your ally, it will tell you when you are seriously
injured, it will keep you awake and angry, and remind you to finish the
job and get the hell home. But you know the best thing about pain?

It lets you know you're not dead yet!

ROFLMFAO!!!

And yet you 'converse' with the 'twit', who would have to have the
filthiest mouth on the group.

You're a contradictory bitch, goose.
