My *only* yard is the front yard. When I mow it I use a perfectly nice relic Black & Decker plug-in electric mower. Dennis refuses to "mess
with all of that cord" and went out and bought a 24" seflf-propelled
gas mower. I laugh every time he has trouble starting it. Bv)=
Steve had a laugh over that, reading over my shoulder. We were
responsible for a space maybe 5'by 15'to the one side of our quarters
in Savannah. Steve bought an electric mower, don't remember if it moved
to NC with us or not (if so, it didn't last long). We use a yard
service now as we have .28/acre--not really enough to get a riding
mower for and the service gets it done fast. Also nice to have the yard looking well kept when we're travelling; we don't come home to a
jungle. (G)
the local news papers. Pizza Hut, Dominos and Little Caesar can
suck wind. Bv)-
Same with Godfather's and Papa John's. (G)
My local Godfather's are both AYCE buffets on their dine-in side.
Last time we were at a Godfather's was when we were in Savannah. Pizza
was meh but service was lousy so we've never gone back to one.
Do you have a Papa Murphy's Take & Bake where you are? I'll sometimes
take one of their pretty basic offerings and tart it up with my own
mix of toppings and additional sauce.
We do, but they don't offer a whole wheat crust option which is our preferred crust.
If you ever run across a Pizza Ranch in your travels leave the pizza
on the buffet. The other offering are decent for buffetr food. But,
their pizza is worse than Pizza Hut's ... and that's hard to do.
Thanks for the warning. (G)
Casey's also do pretty decent grab-and-go breakfast sandwiches, too.
Saw a Google listing today of top 10 places that sell both gas and groceries, Casey's was #5, Hy-Vee was #8.
Casey's has their own discount. And thery are affiliated with Hy-Vee's cash back program. Both companies are headquartered in the same town (Ankeny, IA)
So, a win/win deal for you but not as lucrative for us as we only pass thru the area maybe every couple of years.
50c/gallon off I let my room-mate use my Hy-Vee perks. Bv)=
Also my niece, Robin gets in on the largesse. She brings me supper
from time to time.
I have better luck finding the ingredients for this in the store than
I do with the whole wheat pizza schtick.

Michael made one of those at the picnic at Boyd's Pond in 2015; IIRC,
we had a storebought one also. Neither of them were that great but the storebought was actually better. Probably because they knew what to do; Michael's was an improv of this and that.

When I lived in the tin can I had an even tinier yard and a battry
powered mower. Then the battery died and I got "sticker shock". A replacement
battery would have cost more than I paid for the mower. So, my late friend, Les, brouht me the Black & Decker electric that his mother had used on her yard.

Never been to a Godfather's that offered reulae sit-down table
service. My locals are both on the "Quick-Serve" plan like Freddy's or Panera
Bread. Order at the counter and someone will trot it out to you at
your table.

Michael was an amazing "wing-it" chef. Never ceased to amaze me.
