Well Merry Christmas everyone. Wow this has been an epic month and I’d just like to wrap it up with a picture of my mom’s apple pie. It’s really just about perfect. I’ve saved myself a slice and will be sticking it in the toaster oven tomorrow morning while my coffee is brewing. That may end up being the best part yet and ya know, it really is the most wonderful time of the year.

Well would ya look at that. I’m back in. So as far as I can tell, 1775 was a really long and boring year….so far.
The most interesting part I’m finding is that it gets me to wondering which makes humankind smaller, meaner, uglier, and stupider: politics or religion?
I’m leaning towards religion but as I’m in the South I will sooner or later be confronted with FOX News and that’s always a real scale-tipper on the side of politics making us ugly, stupid, cruel etc.
Don’t they realize that tv is for watching football?
But what do I know.
Ho hum, Happy Thanksgiving everybody.

Man I’m in the nosebleeds. We learned on stadium tour that it’s where the party is.

As you can see from the orangey-red spot right down there near the tip, this is not a “white” pizza, this is supposed to be a normal slice of cheese pie cut in half. I’m finding that not only do small towns tend to like their pizza to be triangles of cheesebread, but so does Portland.
SO IF you are in Portland and like sauce on your pizza, I’ve found that the best I’ve had (so far) is:
Escape From New York Pizza on NW 23rd and Hoyt. It is indistinguishable from Stromboli or St Mark’s style New York slice.
