You lie! You didn't even know I was gone! Got back today from five days in our home town. Little Miss Riley did a great job. No major meltdowns. A few little moments of frustration figuring out her new Webkinz obsession on the computer(thank you Grammy & Grampy), but overall it was a great trip. Both kids had a ball with their grandparents and their cousins.
Got our pizza fix. Nirchi's. Twice.
We are from a very Italian community. I admit it, we look down on those of you who eat Papa Johns or Little Ceasars, or God forbid, Pizza Hut. Nirchi's is big chewy doughy square shaped pieces. Extra cheese, baby. It's the only way to go.
Unless of course you eat Tony's round crust(now you have to go to his brother Nick's 'cause Tony's closed due to "family problems" as the story goes) or Brozetti's (squares). Those are respectable choices. Lately we've heard rumors of "Rossi's" being good, but we weren't going to risk it.
It was truly a wonderful, relaxing trip. HT and I had a date night. Went to a favorite restaurant (The Lost Dog Cafe) and then to see The Debaters. It was awesome. I love me some Denzel Washington. The young actors in the film deserve Oscars. All three of them.
So much more to write about this trip, but for now I'll just say it was a good one. We're back, we're whooped. In a good way.
Now go order your hot pie. You know you want it.
Yum!
Za!

I'm with ya on the pizza. My husband is Italian, so you know there is no Pappa Johns' or Domino's in this house! Glad you had a relaxing time. You deserved it.
I've been to Nirchi's! Small world!!
I'd missed your posts - glad you had a great visit with family.
Happy New Year...what about Chicago style pizza now? Gotta try it!
Oh my god....you are not from bingo are you? I am married to a man from Endicott-and all he ever talks about is Nirchis pizza-we live out west now-but his parents bring him freaking Nirchis on the plane when they come to visit-it is insane. they bring that, and jimmy romas italian sliced bread.
and then there is the cider mill, and the oaks, and consels-HOWEVER you spell it. ahhh...the good old twin tiers.
SPEIDIS!!!lupos or salamidas?
Lupos. We are Lupos.
I'll do a spiedie post soon.
Nothing insane about Nirchi's on the plane.
Repeat after me....
"There's nothing insane about Nirchi's on the plane."
oooooooooo...we are salamida's. we have a case of it in our garage. and our yearly treat of nirchi's will soon be arriving via plane in february. and we will grill speidis. and we will have speidi pizza. and we just received a box of gertrude hawk smidgens in the mail for the holidays. we have decided as a family though...that if we still lived there-we would all be like 300 pounds. at least you have a little italy there in the cleve. we do not have that here in sunny colordao.
sorry...my shift key is not working.
Anon: I can totally see why he married you. You have the right amount of appreciation.
Ah....Gertrude! To die for.
