Ack! Who puts cashews on Hawaiian pizza?
Apparently Red Brick Pizza does. They kindly made a replacement without them.
*whew*
Constant Vigilance!
It was listed on the menu, and I should have looked more closely…but who expects nuts of any kind on Hawaiian pizza? It’s standard: crust, tomato sauce, cheese, ham, and pineapple. Checking for nuts on that would be like checking for strawberry jam on a cheeseburger.
I still think this Aimee Mann lyric should be:
Got out of Phoenix
Just in time
A box of Kleenex
For the rhyme
…instead of the real words, which finish with “for the ride.”
How an outdoor mall dealt with a lunchtime power outage. And some Apple observations.
Power’s out at the mall. No teriyaki bowl for me. Subway it is! (Hmm, and no iced coffee either. *sigh*)
Near as I can tell, the Apple store is just completely shut down. Hazards of making checkout depend on computer network, I guess. For contrast, Subway just dug out a pad of paper credit card slips and did texture rubbings w/ a pen.
Odd: muzak is so omnipresent I didn’t notice it was still playing. Speakers must be on another circuit from the stores.
Turns out only some buildings have lost power. Including all the coffee except Starbucks. But Jamba Juice has power!
Was weird walking through mall at lunch seeing lighted stores on right and dark on left. Some stayed open, some closed, some adapted.
Coffee Bean was mostly closed during the power outage, but they set an employee out front with two urns of coffee. No ice, though.
LA fire pix at Flickr. An impressive round-up.
Pushing Daisies: “The Complete 2 Second Season.” I know it was short, but I’d swear it was longer than that!
