My brother and I would spend 2 weeks every summer with our grandparents in upstate NY. There is a place up there called Nerchi's that serves great sheet pizza. Every time we visit and eat there it makes me think of my summers as a child.

My most vivid memory of pizza is from when I was a little kid and my family would order a pizza after it was my bedtime and my Dad would bring me a couple of slices in my bedroom.

I remember when I was pregnant with my second child I had cravings for pizza and the fun that my 7 year old daughter and I had making homemade pizza. It will be memories I will cherish.

This shows what a geeky child I was but still... Often on Friday nights my parents would take my sister and me out for pizza. This was when we were in elementary school. It seemed like it took forever for the pizza to arrive after we ordered. I actually liked that though. We had plenty of time to talk to my parents about what happened at school that week. I had the whole weekend to look forward to. The place we went had paper place mats with word puzzles on one side and a map of The United States on the other side. I would sit there and write in all the state names and the capitol cities. I told you I was a geeky kid. It was a really special family time for me and one I'll probably never be able to recreate with my own children. I was always tired but happy. I'd eat my fill of thin crust pizza, drink a soda, and then head home where I would try to stay awake for Fantasy Island (even though I thought it was too scary). On Friday nights everything was possible.

Band parties in college. I was in the marching band and after every home game we had a pizza party at a local pizza parlor. It was great just all of us from the marching band eating pizza, listening to music and NOT wearing uniforms or talking football! It helped that my first pizza party was about my first time to eat real - as in not made at home from a mix in a box - pizza. Woohoo!

My favorite pizza memory happened when I was 13. I was always a shy kid and a very picky eater. My mom as always said that I wouldn't even eat rice at a Chinese restaurant because I liked my rice with butter. Until I was 13 I only ate cheese pizza. I had no interest in eating any other toppings. Nope not me. My mother had enrolled me in a actting workshop to hopefully bring me out of my shell. I had a blast, but thing I remember most was the cast party at the end. They ordered pizza, There was no plain cheese pizza this time. Pepperoni pizzaa and supreme pizzas were all that were on the table. So I took a slice of the pepperoni pie. Knowing that the other kids were watching me, I took a big bite. I was so surprised how good it was. I really liked it and devoured two more pieces! I told my mother later and she nearly keeled over, She never thought I'd ever try something new. Pizza broke me out of my "picky eater shell". Who knew pizza could be theraputic? Yummy!
Discovering a really great Cuban pizza restaurant in Miami with my dad. We still make it a point to go there a few times a year since it's so yummy.

Pizza has always been a major part of our life. My younger brother and I would always eat pizza together while we were growing up. Our family jokes that he could literally eat pizza every day. I always think of my brother when I eat pizza.

Me and 31 other dormies ordering pizzas at 3:00 a.m. and sitting in our livingroom eating pizza and watching horror movies ALL NIGHT LONG. We sat around for two days and got sick of eating whatever was at the house, so we called the all-night pizza place (which did not deliver) and got one of their night workers to deliver the pizzas by promising him a date with one of the single girls - his choice.
