Oh God, this is it! I’m done for. That’s got to be a serial killer who climbed in the window to do me in…or a ghost seeking revenge…or perhaps Satan himself, here to drag my soul to the very pits of Hell!
Leftover pizza – it isn’t just for breakfast any more!

Sounds a little like Seasonal Affective Disorder, which should be treated with bright light rather than pizza. Unlike medical advice from commenters online, which should be treated with large grains of salt. :)
Sophititi: I thought I just saw one of your fabrics go flying by.
Maat-Tilda: Oh, that’s not a ghost, that’s a zoomie.
Sophititi: You mean a zombie?
Maat-Tilda: No, one of the cats around here gets to running around out of control. Sometimes they get caught up in a fabric and take it with them. I think that was Puckmosis.
Sophititi: So do they all get the zoomie?
Maat-Tilda: Pretty much. That’s why I made Bea a climbing curtain.
Sophititi: And Elvis?
Maat-Tilda: Too undignified. He’s more likely to poof.
I REALLY hate warming up cold pizza just so I can have it warm again. To buy a premade pizza either from the freezer section or the refrigerated section of a grocery store and throw it in the oven to bake it is one thing, basically the pizza is all made save a final cooking. But once it’s out and gets cold, I want to be able to try any slices that may be left over cold to see what I really think of it. The same is true for getting it from a pizza place, To me a good pizza has to be just as good cold as it is hot. And warming it up once it’s cold denies the chance to find out if that’s the case. I’ve had some pizzas that were actually better cold than they had been hot, which is usually a bad sign in my opinion. Which is something that really bothers me with one of the local grocery stores. They have pizza in their bakery section and when you order a slice they’ll ask you if you want it cold or want them to reheat it. Then they reheat it anyway no matter which you say.
As a side note to this strip, just had pizza for dinner last night.
This has made me decide to order pizza for supper tonight. Delivery, too, as it is cold and rainy…a real dreary day. Would be my 59th Wedding Anniversary if my sweet hubby hadn’t died a year ago. Pizza and a glass of wine in front of the fireplace sounds like a plan.
Even places that offer gluten-free, cheese-free pizza don’t seem to believe that’s actually what you want. Last time, I had the presence of mind to open the box and found it slathered in cheese. So, the “convenient pickup” turned into another 15-minute wait.

I heartily endorse this plan, as long as you’ve got pizza that doesn’t have pepperoni on it.

What can I say……She needs the pizza to nourish gossamer wings.

Comfort couch, comfort blankets, comfort food and comfort cats. What else do you need? Now, can we have a four part chorus of “PURRRR”?
McColl34 Premium Member almost 4 years ago
Soft couch, fuzzy blanket, warm cat(s) and pizza? Add in a book and TV remote within reach and there’s no reason to leave!
(Well, maybe a porta-potty built in to one of the cushions? A flushable one? Perhaps that’s asking a bit much.)

Hold the phone Chuck. What kind of pizza are we talking about?
St. Louis style thin?
Chicago Deep Dish?
New York Style?
California veggie with broccoli and tofu? (YUCK!)
And don’t even get me started with what Robin would consider Pizza in Australia?
We need more information. :-)

I want a pizza cocoon, i can do the cocoon, but i don’t have the pizza, so I guess hot coco will have to suffice instead.

No steam rising off the slice. Is it cold pizza?
