Andy Roddick is Pizzalicious!
The Telegraph reported today that Andy Roddick crushed Philipp Kohlschreiber like a pizza box going into the recycling bin today at Wimbledon.
They also reported that Roddick delivered his buddy John Isner a carb-heavy meal on Wednesday, which included chicken, mashed potatoes and three pizzas. The exhausted Isner recently won an 11-hour long match against Nicholas Mahut. That’s the longest

Metro posted this picture of an Italy fan throwing dough (is that a Throw Dough?) at the Italy-Slovokia game in the FIFA World Cup.

Sunday Funday Breakfast Pizza
Picture it: Sunday. Glorious. Warm.
Brunch? Yes please. We agree to a rare turn & go out, but for something we can’t make (a hard feat as my Mr. Smooth is the master of breakfast and all things butter) & our new neighborhood has tons of places we haven’t checked out yet. We’d stopped in to Ortine, in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn for a warm-up one snowy Sunday when we were scoping out potential

Tales of Pizza: Part Four: Barquitos
When I was a young student of Richmond Public Schools, we were often served a very weird pizza-like dish called “barquitos” for lunch in the cafeterium (cafeteria+auditorium+gymnasium). I have NEVER been able to find out anything about barquito pizza on the internet. I did however, find out that barquito means little boat in Spanish.
A barquito is basically a french bread pizza topped with

Tales of Pizza: Part Three: The Dog Ate the Pizza!
One night my mom was set to attend a big, fancy function at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts. She was working there at the time. She ordered two pies for us (probably from the Little Caesar’s that was up the street) put them on the table and left my older sister in charge with a couple of movies. We opened the first box and helped ourselves to the hot slices then started the movie.
We killed the

Tori Spelling is Pizzalicious
The New York Post recently reported that Tori Spelling ordered Domino’s pizza at a recent book release party at Highbar lounge. She arrived late (maybe after all the hors d’oeuvres were gone) because she had promised to sign every book at Borders. Spelling’s Rep said “Signing all those copies left Spelling hungry: She ordered a Domino’s pizza during the party and wolfed down three slices.”

Tales of Pizza: Part Two: I Loved Pizza Pizza!
Being the children of a single, working mom, we were no stranger to pizza in its many incarnations: pizza kits, frozen pizza and of course the big chains! On rare (awesome) occasions we would order out for pizza. Our standard order was one plain cheese and one with pepperoni, black olives and green peppers. Later we would add mushrooms to the mix.
When we were kids there was a Little Caesar’s

Tales of Pizza: Part One: Chef Boyardee
Pizza! Wow, I have so many great memories of pizza and while I don’t remember my first slice I can still reach pretty far back into the vaults for some good times. I’m going to recall these moments in a new series with stories of my most influential pizzalicious memories.

Pizza in the Shape of… Australia
They have a few pizza recipes at Gobbledegeek.com but I found this one with a pizza shaped like Australia.
In an related note, chorizo is a popular topping for Pizza Hut Australia. I have to say that the menu there looks a lot more gourmet in general, other toppings from the top chain in the land down under include: feta cheese, lemon, prawns, chorizo, roasted red pepper ( which they call
