Now this exchange makes me a bit curious. I wonder whether I can find a slice somewhere? I doubt I want to shell out for a whole pizza. -- Jean B. |

I've re-read you post and it's obvious that you were merely trying to help the old guy complete his transaction because the check-out boy was being a dick and wouldn't let the poor guy leave. To give him a graceful way out, you suggested that he move it under the pretense that you were getting impatient. The grateful old guy played along and made believe that he was angry and left in a huff. I'll bet all the other guys in line shook your hand and commended you on your fast thinking.

There is a relatively new place in the next town that has thin crust pizzas though. My second mother made that type (from scratch), so I want to try at least one slice there. And there is a frozen pizza here that I really like. It has no cheese--just veggies (onion, mushroom, red pepper, artichoke--that is all I remember) with a small amount of ?balsamic-vinegar-based? sauce. Not enough to even be considered to be a sauce. For that matter, my daughter started making pizza crusts when she was ?4? or so. I tell her she can do the crust and I can do the rest. We make a good team for some things. -- Jean B. |

That's the breaks. :-) Any "Hawaiian" pizza I have had here in Canada had ham and pineapple. "Canadian Bacon" is all but unheard of here. Peameal or "back bacon" is common.
