This day we didn’t get to celebrate Einstein’s 140th birthday nor my friend Nelson’s with any good fruit or cream pies at work. Bummer. However, at a smaller level we did eat deep-dish pizza from Conan’s Pizza during a team meeting! Then I repeated it for dinner at my friends’ place as we enjoyed some Rifftrax, a rather creepy trucker movie in which the hero would be a date rapist by today’s standards. Yeah, nothing is more romantic than showing up at a woman’s hotel room while she’s showering and consider it a first date. It was made in the Seventies when one-night standards were supposed to be the standard. ICK! Now as for Conan’s…I have to say, they do a pretty damn good job on deep dish. It’s not quite there with what I remember from the Midwest but they do give Mangia some serious competition on price, quality and speed.
Next year, I need to remember to hit Costco or HEB to celebrate.
