[ pizza tale ]

Oh lord.

I'm in the family room down from the kitchen, having just downed four slices of pizza in quick succession. I am typing this little anecdote in the hopes of interesting you and garnering more visits to this blog.

Anyway, it was not Pizza Hut, which I am used to eating, which was the culprit in this story. It was something called Jamaican...hot sauce.

To start off with, I am a big pizza lover, and would gladly allow more stomach room for more slices. Problem is, I have PMS, and I'm at the stage where I eat a lot. There was this twelve-course dinner last Saturday, which didn't help at all, then some leftover fondue, butter cookies and whatnot lying around in the kitchen. Somebody untempt me!

So, three pounds heavier than I was last week (hey, I counted!), I proceeded to stuff myself again. It all started with an innocent little slice of Pizza Hut's beef-and-pepperoni, and a tiny drop of Jamaican hot sauce. Now you should know that I never can enjoy a pizza without a sauce of some sort (garlic, chili, you name it) and once in a while I get an overdose of the spicy kind.

Today was one of those days. After that small droplet of yellow sauce, I added about six more, in abundance. They'd already warned me about the taste but I guess I underestimated the power of Caribbean hotness.

After that slice it was fast and furious all the way. I couldn't even finish it so I gave it to my mom and started a new one, this time without the sauce. I didn't even need it. The taste was still as fresh in my mouth as if I had put it on that slice. I drank a lot of Coke repeatedly and with each bite.

So here I am, sitting right after having such a huge meal. It's one of those times when my mind is racing and my fingers are itching to type, which may just mean that I am inspired (which I hardly am). And when when I indeed am, I choose to ignore it. So count yourself lucky to have had me type this thing. Hopefully you'll be coming back for more. Ha.
