I'm from Glasgow in Scotland, although I'm living now in Edinburgh, on the other side of the country (a whole 40 miles away... )
I've just had an evening bowl of matcha and am about to have an early night, for once...

Bagels in Virginia--taste like lenders bagels from the grocery freezer section!
No offense to those in the midwest...but what is the deal with your cutting your pizza like a grid instead of a pie? How is one supposed to eat a "slice"?

It seems to me Italians seem to cut it into pie slices, but Greeks tend to cut into a grid, like baklava. I love PIZZA no matter how you slice it!!Teasweetie wrote: No offense to those in the midwest...but what is the deal with your cutting your pizza like a grid instead of a pie?

Going for my third steep of this amazing Jin Xuan oolong. (But saving room for TKY)

Jim, at the post you want to quote, in the upper right is a Quote icon to click onto. The entire quote quote will go into a new post window for you to respond to. You can delete as much of the quote as you want as long as you leave the [brackets].jim109 wrote:"For about the past year I've been happily living in upstate NY.
