"We make-a-dah-pizza"
I had a small dinner party last night with a friend from work. The theme was "American food" - chips and onion dip, Sam Adams beer, homemade pizzas, and pumpkin pie (made with canned pumpkin). My friends got a kick out of how the pumpkin came from a can ("don't you have real pumpkins in America?"), and my friend's husband told me that pizza was something that he associated with America as a kid, from reading Mad Magazine. He said that one of the characters in it was always eating pizza, and at that time they didn't have pizza in the UK - or any kind of informal eatery, for that matter.
This is my Viking, helping me make-a-dah-pizzas :)
