The Freezer Case: Archer Farms Pepperoni Thin Crust Pizza

While recovering from the all-out celebration in honor of my little sister's wedding (congrats Ellio!), we kept things pretty simple meal-wise this weekend. So we picked up an Archer Farms Pepperoni Thin Crust Pizza from Target for only $3.75 (on sale and had a coupon).

Overall, it was a very good pie. Plenty of smoky, slightly spicy pepperoni, both sliced and julienned. An ample amount of robust sauce, even according to Saucy's standards. The toppings were spread all the way to the edge, leaving very little naked crust. This was a good thing, because the crust was the one weak point. A little too thin, a bit cardboardy and it crunched like a Ritz cracker.

Even with the bunk crust, we'd get this one again ... especially at that price!

Monthly Roundup: August's Top Five Posts

To close each month, we'll do a quick roundup of the top five not-to-miss posts. In a blog with so much fascinating content, it could be easy to miss one or two good posts.

 

 

Okay, I know it's already September, but this is the first chance I'm getting to write this post. I've been busy working on my comedy routine (aka matron-of-honor speech) for my sister's upcoming nuptials. The top five posts from August were:

• Photo of the Week - Emmental launched this popular weekly feature with pictures of a mega jellyfish, a hot lady sunbathing and Hurricane Irene.
• Inside Scoop from Hunter Pence Batting Practice - Saucy linked to this post in a comment on the popular Fightins site, resulting in some major traffic. And only one douche said it sucked.
• Shipyard Pumpkinhead - Most commented-on post of the month, but I'm not sure why it was so hot. The beer itself stunk.
• Pizza Reviews - Pies were pretty darn good last month. We recommend Marzano's, Perrotto's and Olce Pizza Grille.
• Props Out: My Wife - Perhaps this was not one of the most popular posts of the month in terms of pageviews. But I like it. A lot.

The Rare Night Out: My Little Sister's Bachelorette

Do I need to stop referring to her as my "little sister," now that she's all grown up and getting married? I suppose I should graduate to calling her my younger sister, or even just my sister. After all, no reason to remind myself (or anyone else) that I'm older.

Anyway, last weekend, we hit the town for her bachelorette. It's been quite a while since I was out and about in the Philly club scene. So long that I tried on at least 12 outfits, some new and some old, for both my hubby and my sister.
