Hi new thread! Love the Ani-inspired title.

And gotta love pictures of my doggies. sara, that wistful one looking out the car window was on a roadtrip through Utah in winter. She was wiling away the hours looking out the window. No doggies or cows along that stretch to get her excited. Our dogs are great roadtrip dogs.

I shopped at Winn-Dixie and Publix when I was stationed in Florida for a couple months.

What is even happening?

broccoli does not belong on pizza.
I hear you, Kat. That is what I said, then I tried it. I think it was actually broccoli and garlic. It was at a dive-y little Italian restaurant and pizzaria near my college. The broccoli goes on the pizza raw, so it still has some tooth to it, after baking. It was very tasty.

Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan

1960: After reading Booker T. Washington's Up From Slavery, J.E. Davis begins his support of black colleges. Through the subsequent years, Winn-Dixie supports Bethune-Cookman College, the National Council of Negro Women, Rust College, Florida Memorial College, the Tuskegee Institute, and many others.

This was the only tidbit that tied it to race at all, in that link. I don't think I'm crazy, but I can't remember where I got my information from. And it's not like they would probably advertise which type of store they were in a nice reflective look back, like that. But this was the deep south in the early part of the last century, and there definitely was segregation. So, I don't know.

broccoli does not belong on pizza.

Yes, it does, if it's next to chicken on a pizza from East End pizza. Other places, no, not so much.

If I only had a brain...

I loved the name Piggly-Wiggly. Hearing genteel elderly ladies say "Oh, I must stop off at the Piggly-Wiggly for butter." It could only have been better if it had been "The Eight-Ball".

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Timelies,

I have to go back and finish the old thread yet.

I'm in the "if the crust isn't worth eating, the pizza isn't worth eating" camp. If the only choice is Papa John's, the dogs get the part with the inedible overly-sweet sauce on it, and I keep the crusts and garlic sauce for myself.

This is me, except for the dogs part. I'll eat Papa John's, but their sauce is much too sweet for me. The crusts and garlic sauce are great, though.

My favorite "weird" pizza is sausage and pineapple. I was skeptical at first, but was pleasantly surprised. It was the standard order for my old gaming group. The local Dominos came to expect our order every Friday night. With the current group no one can agree on anything so we normally just order individual meals from a local italian place that delivers instead.

I prefer to order from a local pizza place called imaginitively enough Pizza House (who in addition to good pizza have absolutely incredible italian beef on garlic bread sandwiches), but when there's a large group we tend to order from Dominos because it's cheaper and easier.

Piggly-Wiggly is definitely an inner-city chain in Milwaukee. Don't know about anywhere else.

I shopped at Winn-Dixie and Publix when I was stationed in Florida for a couple months.

I love Publix. They are the bestest grocery store ever, and are still my favorite, to this day. They're so clean and shiny, and they give kids free cookies at the bakery, every time you go, and they have the little carts, so kids can have a cart, too. They are the bestest, and are also awesome.

But Cindy, it would still be broccoli. Brocooli is a vegetation abomination (which fwiw, would make a great band name).

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

There are (or used to be) many Piggly-Wigglys in rural Minnesota.

Little-known fact: Piggly-Wiggly was founded by Joseph Piggly and Archibald Wiggly.

Little known because I made it up....
