  1. Great idea! I was thinking of having a grilled cheese with tomato a few minutes ago.

    And Mark has not had a single snow delay or closure this year, although the past 3 mornings have featured single digit temperatures. I expect to get slammed in late January and February, because it usually evens out.

  2. very great idea! i like pizza very much but can’t seem to find a crust recipe that’s easy while still being delicious. i’ll have to try this!

    1. Pooja,

      You can try but I have a feeling it would get soggy. It’s definitely tastiest hot from the stove.
