    Growing up in the 50s in Wisconsin, we never heard of pizza until Dean Martin's song. Then a pizza restaurant opened up in our nearby town, and we fell in love with it. But it was expensive, so my mother used to make pizza at home from The Appian Way pizza kit which was just then new at the stores right around 1959.

One day we might end up back in the depression/war and we wouldn’t have what we have now. Electronics, the internet. We’ll need to know this stuff for later, so we can actually put food on the table. He *double hockey sticks*, some of these recipies actually sound really good and I want to make them for my family like any other dinner. I LOVE THIS WOMAN AND HER SWEET VOICE!
