...a haiku

Cold Pizza

 

 

sitting on the floor

cross legged playing solitaire

no spades, cold pizza.

i actually like eating cold pizza as well...it is great...and you brought me back with this one...I made pizzas for 30 years back in the seventies, eighties and nineties...worked at the same place for 27 of them...
good combo you have here with the solitaire.

Wow, 30 years...that's fascinating! I've always found it amazing the toppings people will order. I'm easy. If it has cheese, I'm good! Thanks, J!

[jacob erin-cilberto]

and i eat anything on pizza except olives...
so many combos are good...try pineapple and garlic sometime....that is amazing.

[Kelly Scheppers]

I'll take mushrooms, onions and red peppers...love pineapple, but I'm with you on the olives...no anchovies, please!

[jacob erin-cilberto]

one of my ex girlfriends got exactly that on her pizzas...mush, onions and red peppers...but my second ex wife turned me on to the pineapple/garlic...and i have to admit...i like anchovy...especially anchovy and tomatoes as a combo...:)))))

[Kelly Scheppers]

Can I get you to make an estimated guess of how many pizzas you made in the time you worked there?

[jacob erin-cilberto]

i couldn't begin to estimate...we were a very busy place especially on Friday and Saturday nights...and after ten when we had slices...i often had four ovens full of pizzas. with 8 in each....at least...
so i was a busy boy...i generally worked the ovens...and enjoyed it so much the busier it was.
:))))

[jacob erin-cilberto]

i will let you know what he thinks when i get hold of him...is that your pic?

[Kelly Scheppers]

Ok, J. No, that's not mine.

I honestly would rather eat cold pizza than hot pizza...just the way I am. We always called it, "The Breakfast of Champions" not sure why but we did. Italian food in general to me is much better cold. I love cold spaghetti sandwiches.
But...as temperature goes, I will read your poetry, cold or hot...it matters not. : )

[Kelly Scheppers]

I agree with you, Will...about italian food in general tasting pretty good when it's cold. I even fold my pizza in half, most the time. Lol, insane, I know! Thank you, Will!

love this, i like cold pizza. this is a fun and delightful read here. Nothing like a game of cards to go with it and maybe a glass of wine.

[Unspoken poet]

SImply awesome!!! I love this, sounds like something I would do. I buy pizza from Pizza hut, and put it into the fridge and have it cold for breakfast. Mmmm! Love this write.

[Kelly Scheppers]

I actually prefer it that way. Thank you for the visit!

[Neville]

this little jewel is like a shot in the arm... what could be nicer than munching on a cold margarita pizza whilst sipping on one too.. hold the solitaire.. but I get where ya coming from.. delicious... N

[Kelly Scheppers]

Sounds good to me, Nev! ; ) You won't have to call me twice.

[Neville]

Shucks.. I'm the guy doing the double beetroot and lobster impersonation in the far corner.. maybe we could just talk for a week or two before maybe holding hands..

[Kelly Scheppers]

I'm smiling here...; )

[Neville]

.. me too .. :)

[HadesRising]

Love cold pizza and JD. Lol

[Kelly Scheppers]

I'm surprised so many people do! ...thank you!

[Fran Marie]

Not much excitement excitement playing solitare bu I suppose the pizza is comforting hot or cold.
.great senryu here

[Kelly Scheppers]

My mom used to play the game for hours while smoking cigarettes and drinking coffee. Me, five or six hands and I'm done. Thank you, Fran!

[Edie Blue Starfish]

The scene itself could be cold. Without the warmth of company
Cold pizza is ok. Depends on the toppings. :)

[Kelly Scheppers]

So true, about the toppings, that is. I'm an extra cheese kind of girl. Is there ever too much?

[Edie Blue Starfish]

Cheese is definitely where it's at. And pepperoni.
I like it simple

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Hi Kelly, Rarely see your posts these days. Now this senyru (tis senyru) has such a visual aspect to it and is calmly sad as the protagonist plays a lone game with a cold meal.
I too love pizza, hot or cold! I think I count eight syllables in line two?

[Laura Kate]

I love cold pizza!
What a lovely image you created.
Best,
Laura

[Kelly Scheppers]

It tickles me that many do! Thank you, Laura!

[Lydia Shutter]

[Kelly Scheppers]

[Lydia Shutter]

Laughing here...but of course! :)
