ChickyD aka Debra says:First of all, let me say how much I love your pick!
Secondly, it’s not quite 10:00 a.m. in Texas so the first thought that came to mind was a song by Sapphire and the Uppity Blues Women called “Cold Pizza and Warm Beer”…song about breakfast after a pretty wild party.
Next….what do I like on my pizza…roasted garlic, sauteed mushrooms, artichoke hearts, fresh basil, and arugula. Put the arugula on AFTER it comes out of the oven. My favorite Italian place/market in Austin makes a pizza like this, and it’s delicious!

CAS says:Now this pick really deserves a SCRUMPTIOUS! I’m a pepperoni lover myself, but I also like mushrooms (baby portabellas if possible), jalapenos, roasted red peppers, sun-dried tomatos, and mild banana peppers.

Classy Chick JbyJill says:Debra~ sounds yummy!!
I love pizza
I love Sausage and onions on mine!! I also love “Pete’s Pizza” at our local pizza shop…. white pizza with pineapple and seasonings…. YUM!!

ChickyD aka Debra says:Love sausage, too! That’s what I always have to order when I’m with my son! When he’s not around, I like to get more adventurous. Unfortunately, he tends to turn up his nose at arugula on pizza! LOL love the roasted red peppers and sun-dried tomatoes, too.

CAS says:Oh, and LOTS AND LOTS of chesse! At home I’ll put mozzarella, chedder and feta on my pizza. Feta is especially good with spinich, sun-dried tomatos, and black olives (which I also LOVE on pizzas).

Anita QoG Funny Chick says:YUMMY!!! Like CAS, lots of cheese, lots of mushrooms, lots of black olives, onoins, tomatoe, spinach & banana peppers!!!

KPJEWELS says:Yummy pick. I like Hawaiian pizza. Cheese, ham and pineapple.

Valentine Chick says:OOOH! They all sound good! How fun!

CAS says:Hey Antia, it sounds like the only thing we’d fight about about pizza is who’d get the last slice! LOL

Anita QoG Funny Chick says:Well, CAS, You better be a fast eater!!!lol…….

Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:Jen, this is a very cute pick — love your arrangement! What are your toppings? I’m guessing black olives (onyx bicones), banana peppers (sunshine bicones), onions (champagne keishi drops), and green olives (olive green pearls). How’d I do?
On Jul 06, 2009 at 3:25 pm #
Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:Oops, forgot to answer your question! I like plain cheese (light on the cheese); BBQ chicken pizza made with BBQ sauce instead of tomato sauce, shredded grilled chicken, & moz. cheese; Greek pizza; veggie pizzas without onions or green peppers. Prefer hand-tossed or thin crust. What time will it arrive? LOL
On Jul 07, 2009 at 9:57 am #
Valentine Chick says:The yellow was supposed to be cheese, but banana peppers would work too, and the keishi drops were to be mushrooms. And actually…I don’t care for black olives or mushrooms; I just put them on for show!! LOL

Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:So…..what DO you like on your pizza, Jen? LOL

Valentine Chick says:Pepperoni, cheese, green olives, onions, peppers…
