To me onions just overpower the flavor of too many foods; I want to taste cheese, bread, and tomatoes---not onions. Similarly I don't like onions on my pierogies. (But boy do I love pierogies!!! OOOOOHHHHH!!!!! OHHHHH!!!)
Paul if you like homemade...try Barrett's in Archbald. They are wonderful. Er pierogies that is.

I like the Old Forge Pizza Express in West Pittston. Hmmm...it sounds like you and I could be neighbors. I have a lot of family/friends in West Pittston.

Ok, listen to me people, Old Forge pizza is not pizza, i do not know what it is, other than it's nasty. I'm from Jersey and until you've had Jersey pizza in a real pizzeria, then you haven't had pizza. Take it from me, go there and try it, you'll never look back. I promise.

Sues, you are one tough babe, I appreciate your love of your Pizza, but the people in this area always loved and looked forward to their treats. Pizza is somewhat of Monarch here. There may be just a wee bit of pride involved in this.

Here is order of worship in SWB.

1- PIZZA 90% OLD FORGE STYLE OF MANY DIFFERENT RECIPES

2- PIZZA THE OTHER 10%

3- PIROGIES, KIELBASI, HULUPKEES, GLUPKESS, BOBBY VINTON, STANKY & THE PENNSYLVANIANS

4- RELIGION - CHRISTIANS - JEWS - ATHEIST - PIZZA (OLD FORGE) When they are not angry at their own, they are angry at the rest.

5- St Patrick's Day - KIND OF A PAGAN ALL GODS DAY.

6- POLITICS - Conservatively Left of Center(need a cross eyed face)

I know you don't mean to, but I fear that by disparaging the #1 form of worship here you may bring about some jocular anGrilarity (The New Heynabonics World Dictionary). Your penance may include the following:

1: Genuflection upon passing an Old Forge Style Pizza Parlor

2: The purchase of a velvet Bobby Vinton.

3: Mop Duty at Buddy Clarke's on St Patty's Day.

So please try to construct your loyal sentiments regarding your favorite Pizza in a more sensitive more productive way.

Thanks,

Thanks, trying to humor Sues alittle. I think she could use it.

You're right about that.

What was the name of the band with something Pennsylvanians? Come on Polka fans. I have had some of the funnest times at Polish Weddings. Come to think about probably all weddings.
