Thom, it has indeed been stinking hot in the Bluff City for the past two weeks, though today is more temperate. The way that the hot weather affects pizza-making is that I refuse to fire up the grill outside so I can finish the pizza over hot coals and give the crust that nice charred bottom, but that’s ok.

Scott, you’re welcome. Keep up the good work.

Fredric,

Thank you. I always like to hear from friends who had a good experience in the store. I will share this entry with my guys and thank them for taking good care of you.

FK, I am always equally gratified when wine shops have knowledgeable people, that know their products and ask the right questions to insure a great drinking and eating experience.
I have yet to put your recipe to the test yet.
I love movies, wine and pizza so it’s only a matter of time.
Things have been a tad muggy in Aville,so I’m guessing Memphis has got to be smoking hot!
How does that bode for pizza night? Does it get to be too much, or is the fact you go with simple pizzas keep it from being too much?

yes, Thomas, and remember when an AOC Chablis cost $16 and now it’s $25.

Thanks, Sheila, and thanks for the link to your blog.

Inflation stinks.

I remember drinking that Chianti Rufina when it was $10. It worked then, too.
