Tale of the Pie: Pizza Stop


Just had a a pizza party with the family for my mom's birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM! This side of the pizza project doesn't know anything or care to know anything about the south beach diet. We ordered pizza from a placed called Pizza Stop. It's a little shop in a strip mall, very unassuming on the outside and in. However, the pizza was fantastic.

Nightmare at Chili's: Two-hour dinner with a toddler in tow

In the nearly 17 months that we've been accompanied by a third person (a very tiny person) when going out to eat, we've found it amazing how quickly you can actually get in and out of a restaurant. Hosts are anxious to get you seated so your child isn't wreaking havoc in their lobby. Servers cannot wait to get your order in, delivered and cleared to minimize the mess that is quickly accumulating under the high chair.

Unfortunately, that was not the case tonight. After a bit of shopping at the King of Prussia mall, we decided to head over to Chili's for dinner. We should have known it was not going to be smooth sailing as soon as the waitress took 15 minutes to bring us our drinks and take our order. But having been in the biz myself during my college years, I always like to give servers the benefit of the doubt. Even when we have to repeat our order three times: Fried mozzarella, cup of chili, chicken fajitas, margarita chicken. Mmmhmmm. Not exactly that complicated.

Booze...in 50 Words or Less: River Horse Summer Blonde

Did I mention that wifey put me on the South Beach diet after a recent doctor's visit? Evidently, the plasma was looking a tad fatty. Now I get one beer per week. Not one sixer! ONE BEER! I had this one. Not good. Tasteless and bland. A wasted opportunity!
