Yesterday was a great day! I got a note from Adam at Slice (www.sliceny.com) telling me that he checked out this web site and that he blogged about it on his site! It made my day!

I appreciate the gesture very much since I spend a bunch of time over at Slice. It’s a great pizza blog with an incredible amount of information about New York Style Pizza!

Thanks again Adam!

Though I wouldn’t recommend doing it on a Friday night, these are funny ideas for harassing your local pizza shop operator! Some of them are pretty funny. (And, no, this is not a picture of me!)

Today I discovered that we have a U.S. Pizza Team! According to the web site, they travel each year to a Worldwide competition in Italy to compete in these 5 categories: Fastest Pizza Maker, Largest Dough Stretch, Freestyle Pizza Tossing, Best Gourmet Pizza and Best Traditional Pizza. It seems the Americans are pretty good too – taking 2nd, 3rd and 5th place wins at the 2003 “World Pizza Championship”. I better start practicing!

This web site about wood burning pizza ovens has really inspired me! I plan to build one at our new home some time this year. The wood oven is as good as pizza gets!
