Kids at grandma's for me too! Pizza, pizza, pizza!
Yay.

s
How doea one become a waitress? Is there a special schooling?..nm
nm
This one too is a ridiculous headline-Hooters waitress charged in tot's death
relevant that she works at Hooters. I did not know to post the link, but apparently she left her son in the car, forgetting to take him to day care. Very sad.
As a teenager, I worked as a waitress...it sure was a school of hard knocks. LOL.
Waitresses have one of the toughest jobs. A good waitress deserves all of her 20% tips. Not enought money, IMHO.
So go over and have pizza..what's the big deal?
Not like she asked you to plan it or have it at your place and cook a meal. Maybe I'm not understanding.
How much do you tip the pizza delivery guy?
I usually give them 3 or 4 dollars.
But I got to thinking with the cost of gas, maybe that's not enough? Don't they usually pay for their own gas?
How much do you tip?
California pizza
I always wondered if they were any good... now I can try one
Never had mac and cheese pizza, but
I have my grandmother's recipe that we grew up on of baked mac and cheese. So much better than the box varieties.
If you're talking about Pizza Hut then....sm
the $1.50 fee goes to the restaurant to help pay the base salary for the drivers. I know because I asked the manager when they started this practice a few months ago. I usually give a 20% tip as they always deliver pizzas to my house within 20 minutes and faster than the internet says they'll deliver when I place the order.
does pizza hut begin with the letter D?

I like my pizza stone and can opener the best.
Any stone is nice if you bake. The items I use and LOVE the most are their spatulas. Everything is kinda pricey. They do have things in all price ranges though. I also like their cook books. I have never been to a power party! Have fun.
Pizza in a home over. Not hot enough. Tasty, but sm
never as good as baked in a real pizza oven.
Here's the pizza guy's point of view

The pizza place we order from
I have assumed that would go to the driver.
I wish I MADE as much as a pizza delivery guy

Pizza is every kids favorite!
I have used the pie irons before but never thought of anything other than the desserts or grilled cheese. Pizza sounds like an easy and healthy lunch for the kids that they will actually eat and can help make. Thanks so much!
Homemade Pizza Dough
Does anybody have a recipe for a good pizza dough recipe that does not take a long time to make?
Also what do you put on your homemade pizza?
Uncooked whole tomatoes on pizza
We have that here. I actually love it. It's like a bruchetta.
My ultimate favorite pizza
Is the Pizza Margarita (sp?). It's the one where the crust is brushed with EVOO and then just topped with slices of mozzarella, fresh tomatoes and fresh leaves of basil. I adore it, and would you believe cannot find it in the central California area?
The only regional foods where I live are pretty much raisins and grapes *sigh*
We're more famous for our crime rate than our cuisine, lol!
The pizza I had in Buffalo was supposedly
pepperoni. The whole tomatoes were supposedly the sauce. I love, love, love tomatoes, just not what tastes like whole, uncooked on my pizza.
Never buy frozen pizza from the store
I have never found one that does not taste like eating a piece of cardboard. I have a Johnny's Pizza probably as close as the nearest store and my goodness, what terrific pizza but I also love my pepperoni and green olive stromboli. Yum, yum.
California Pizza Kitchen
makes a very good frozen pizza; for a while I was hooked on the 5-cheese and tomato. You can just see the calories dripping off of it.
pizza delivery tipping question
Hi all: I've recently noticed that a prominent pizza chain that begins with a D has started charging me a 1.50 delivery charge. I normally tip the delivery guy anywhere between 3 and 6 depending on amount of order, weather conditions, etc. I'm wondering who this 1.50 goes to and why are they charging me 1.50. If goes to the delivery guy, great, more power to him.
Also, do you tip higher on Superbowl Sunday? Just curious. TIA
LOL, I like pizza in Italy...thin crust...sm
But there are many NY foods I crave (live in the south now)......actually entire neighborhoods I crave...Chinatown, Little Italy, Germantown, etc. 
Turned out to be Domino's pizza - which I ordered
I tell you, it's a tough world!
Will watch, but no party..maybe some pizza and wings...nm

cookies, home made pizza..sm
Go to the www.pamperedchef.com web site and find your stone under products. They will give recipes.
Is the flat stone? Cookies come out beautiful, Frozen french fries or tater tots, make your own pizza using frozen bread dough.. there are more options if you have the stone with the sides.
happy birthday!! chololate and pizza -
my kinda gal!! Can't top that...except maybe giving this profession a kick in the prat and retiring!!
don't work - hoop'n'holler
Super easy homemade pizza
Very yummy and under $10 Serves 3-4
1 lb ground hamburger or 1 bag of pepperoni
1 box jiffy pizza crust mix
1 bag shredded pizza cheese
1 jar pizza sauce
Brown hamburger, drain; set aside. Make crust mix as per directions. Put into pizza pan - bake 3 minutes. Layer sauce, a little cheese, meat, then more cheese. Bake on 350 degrees for about 12-15 minutes. You won't believe how delicious this is!
I once called in a pizza order to be picked up
and the guy on the phone said off-handedly....I don't need to charge you the extra dollar since it is not being delivered. I asked if that dollar went to the delivery person and he sheepishly said no. Really ticked me off.
Our pizza guys get $7.50 an hour plus tips.
I don't feel bad at $2 tips. He's making more than min wage here.
If he wants more money, he needs to get into a better job.
What is your favorite frozen pizza from the store?
What frozen pizza do you like? Alot of times we'll get a pizza on Friday night. Figuring a frozen is cheaper than pick up?
It's really hard not to do a drive through when you're running around on the weekends. Just wondering what others do to help cut down on the cost of eating out.
It's just me and 2 kids, 8 & 9 yr old.
Pizza for us too (delivery) - my cuboards are bare
Been bare all week. Tired of meals consisting of popcorn, potato chips, or buttered rice (nothing else, just buttered rice), and other "non-meal" items.
Glad the weekend is here to do grocery shopping.
You must live in a high pizza delivery paying
area that they get $7-8/hr. Most make minimum, if that, but keep their tips. Oh, add in gas to save you the trip of lugging it home yourself, then yes $2 is insulting.
I am having a South Beach pizza and putting some fat free
cheese on it with a little fried ground beef to make it more tasty. LOL! I live alone and have gotten out of the habit of cooking. However, on Sunday I made my mom and stepfather salmon cakes and scalloped potatoes. It was very good, and my mom ate better than I have seen her eat in some time. Perhaps I should cook more often.
FYI: I don't get the South Beach pizza to lose weight, just because it is a little better for me than regular.
Rewarmed frozen Safeway pizza from last night.
Once they get their pizza and the DVDs going, they'll yak all night & have a blast w/o any games

Small group family/friends out for bowling and pizza

sure we cook for the dog
he does still have the food we cook mixed into some dry kibble.
For dinners he will have cooked meat, usually chicken or steak strips, sometimes burger mixed with something else, vegetables, cheese and potatoes (his favorites). For breakfast he gets a whole grain granola type cereal mixed in with a little yogurt or pumpkin.
I know a lot of ppl who are cooking for their pets now. I always thought my dog was just being "spoiled" until I started asking around who else was cooking for their fur babies :)
How to cook
I'm 27, moved out of the house at 19, but still don't know how to cook!
The thought of making a whole meal for just me seems like too much effort, but I'm getting a little bored of the melt-cheese-on-carbs kind of life.
Any thoughts?
....nm up there! Got my used BOS II from there, too. Cook

im not much of a cook, but...
what about baked ziti? It's a change from plain pasta or lasagne/spaghetti. I was just asking my boyfriend last night for it (since he makes it). it's been awhile. We are a young couple so we seem to do the same things every week!! (Tacos, spaghetti, steak) Last night we had pork chops, rice, and broccoli. Tonight we are barbequing hamburgers..
The thing I like to do is twice baked potatoes. It's the only thing I really ever do from scratch, so you of course can add/take away ingredients. I'm very plain so mine are very plain but bake your potatoes... then
I melt a tablespoon of butter, add chopped mushrooms, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon pepper.
then when the potatoes are done scoop out the middle, add a little of the melted stuff, add some shredded cheese and sour cream (total will be about 2 cups and 16 oz sour cream)... mix and then add more, mix... scoop back into potatoes and put the rest of the cheese on top, bake for 15 minutes!
hope that made sense, ive never written down my recipe before :)
okay, I was looking for a certain cook
on PBS who was making an apple dessert in a cast iron skillet about a year or so ago, but I guess they are no longer showing him; an older white haired man with a full white mustache. Anyway, I remember him saying don't use McIntosh or eating apples because they have so much moisture in them, they break down in heat. So I stumbled across another site that really goes into the different varieties and uses. Hope this helps; and he likes granny smith, too.

I was in the bathroom with a cook at a SM
restaurant who didn't wash her hands. I was totally disgusted. I loved this restaurant. I went to the manager and told her what happened. She ran back to the kitchen and screamed--loudly--at the cook in their language and then came back to me and apologized and said the cook said she washed her hands when she got back in the kitchen, but that she would make sure none of her employees ever left the bathroom again without washing their hands.
I used to work in fast food as a teenager and even if I just went in the bathroom to look in the mirror, I would wash my hands just in case a customer should come in and suspect I had gone to the bathroom without washing my hands.
So, in short...lol...that is one of my pet peeves as well!
Chickadee
I do not cook but hubby does and
we can buy groceries for very little. How he uses the food is amazing. He can take 1 chicken breast and make a complete meal out of that. He usually fixes brown rice or pasta of some kind and adds this piece of meat cut into small pieces and adds his herbs, spices or the like to it. When we buy at the store usually get, say 3 chicken. He has these halved and being as we don't have children at home 1 side will do us- I like the white meat, he likes the dark, works out well. But if you have family, you could try the above- I never feel deprived, much to the contrary, my meals are delicious and never feel I am missing meat. He made a wonderful meal this past week using all kinds of onions, garlic, squash, zuccini (spelling?)and we had this over the rice- delicious! He uses a rice as the base with additions to that, such as cut up tomatoes, garlic, bay leaves and then the toppings. This is a very good way to extend your budget.
Me too! But I cook, he does all the rest : )

Don’t cook at all but when I want something sweet,
will have a piece of cake, pie, candy, ice cream, unlimited but adding sugar to things not only to bread but some vegetables is a big turn off for me. Some in the south eat grits, could not tell you what they taste like, never had those. Eating out as a child never served grits with breakfast (in Chattanooga)and still to this date do not eat- my children raised in another southern state and they like grits. It is funny how certain regions eat different foods, all in what you grew up with, like and such.
Anything YOU don't have to cook always tastes

How about: If I lived here, I'd be the cook!
