Here's what I like. Pizza.
Once a week we have pizza for dinner. We get our pizza, and
we sit around figuring out what to watch on Netflix.
Here's what's great about pizza. You can get any kind of
pizza you want. Everything from just plain cheese on a wafer-thin crust, on up
to what might be characterized as a cheesy meat stew in a crust so constructed
as to practically be a bowel. Or ethnicize your pizza, like Hawaiian or
Mexican. Or you can just go wild on your own, no red sauce, bleu cheese, apple slices.
You know? Anything can be a pizza, just put it on a crust of
some sort. I'm surprised we don't call apple pie with a slice of cheese on it a
pizza.
And yet, every week our pizza is a pizza. Sometimes it's a fantastic
pizza. Sometimes it's not. Sometimes it's a strange pizza, and sometimes if Raffaele
Esposito saw it, he'd be all, "hey! Get out of my recipe book!"
And I always like pizza, and I always will. But no matter
how much I like pizza, sometimes when pizza night rolls around, what I really
want is a patty melt.
