    I've had several basil plants but they died. I need to get another one. It's fantastic!!

    I've seen alot of shows where they tell you to go to the pizza shops and buy the dough. I wasn't aware they would sell it.

    The Chariman looks like he's lost alot of weight. They were talking on Monday night, I think, about his rigorous schedule. He's supposedly been flying back and forth all this time and he's exhausted. He was starting to look like a sick young teenager. Last night, he was wearing so much makeup.

    The Chopped wasn't that one. It was on last night. He didn't call any names. He just argued with the judges that his cooking was good and he has his opinions and they have theirs. I know the producers did it to shake things up on purpose. Otherwise, they could have cut that part out.

    It was pretty entertaining to see this guy stand up for himself. The judges are so rude on that show. Often, I think they need to be brought down a little. On this show, it wasn't really necessary to become so angry like he did. They were offering constructive criticism and he refused to take it. He actually said he was cooking for the people at home and not the judges. WHAT???

    Richard, do you know if basil is safe for kitties to eat? I love the flavor of it, but I'm afraid that if I buy a plant, Cassie will munch on it while I'm at work.

    Thank you,

    Jeepers,

    I don't know........

    Yes, it's safe!

    D,

    I never have tried to buy pizza dough....I'll have to find out. I always thought it would be easier to purchase it from a smaller mom and pop place-I figured the bigger places/chains would be more stringent with their 'secret recipes'?

    I was also think mom and pop. The chain stores would probably look at you like you've got three heads.

    Our Domino's and Pizza Hut employees here have a pre-req in order to be hired. They have to be incapable of doing anything.

    I'm sure they're not all bad but most of them......YES!!

    I was also wondering about that frozen bread dough you can buy in the grocery store. It's a loaf shape already but it could be kneaded down to a regular soft ball of dough. Right?

    If you want a doughy crust, you could probably use that bread dough to make a pizza ... every grocery store around here though sells balls of frozen dough just for that purpose - thaw, roll out and go!

    I have to say that the Dominos we have nearby is wonderful - you can order online so you can specify exactly how you want your pizza, and the employees there are unfailingly nice, and do a great job - it's yummy. I go pick it up, instead of having it delivered, but it is worth it. (There are two North Streets in Newton, and most everyone (and many GPS devices) knows the other one, not ours!)

    We get fabulous pizza from there but it takes forever to order it because of the help.
    Karen, I'm glad to hear that you have good people. I think it has something to do with Florida at my store.

    Seriously - try ordering online! Go to Dominos.com, and type in your zip code and find your store. You then pick your pizza, and you can just click on things for what crust, what sauce, what toppings, etc. And, after speaking with the folks at our local Dominos, they prefer the online orders, because they know exactly what the person wants, and the person knows exactly what they will be paying, too. I can easily order a pizza with no sauce - I am allergic to something in each of their sauces - online, but in any store, I have to repeat myself several times "Yes, NO sauce, I really mean it." I have never had them put sauce on a pizza when I have ordered it online!
