ewe, I don't like Little Caesars & can't believe they've stayed in business so long. However, there's a family owned pizza restaurant near me that has great pizza. They also have these things called butter balls - pizza dough in bite-size balls baked and drenched in garlic butter - dangerously good!
Well, Caesar's is local. It started in Detroit, and the founder/owner owns the Tigers and the Red Wings. The company offices are in the same building as one of the famous Detroit theatrical landmarks, the Fox Theater.

ok - the last like 8 posts made me almost pee in my pants -

YEAH My Kacey is back!!

Ok - what is the orange chicken from Costco (I go like every week - what section is it in?) and did anyone try the the chicken margarita pasta thing that is done in the skillet yet - (coupon was last week)

I agree with Linda on the Caesar Pizza - I think Ellios is better!
The orange chicken is in the freezer section, near the entrees (like lasagna and ravioli). It's a fairly large box. But sooooo good!

Okay - this was the funniest thing I've read this evening.


I specifically bought Blow-Pop lollipops for treak or treating...because if they didn't all get handed out, I knew they wouldn't be tempting....and I could add them to our Shoeboxes we are doing. I'm so virtuous, aren't I?








Except, for dinner, I had 3 pieces of Jack-o-lantern pizza, a rootbeer, and leftover pumpkin dump cake with cool whip slathered on it.
 
Don't think I didn't see what you had for supper there my friend Becky! :)

It's the pain killers, huh...they're making you eat naughty things, aren't they?

That is the cheaters way for sure!!!!!
 
I used to do that, too. I would buy the non chocolate stuff, but the kids like the chocolate stuff better. I don't get many little ones here. Mostly older El and junior high.

Hee Hee Hee....I had to put the disclaimer at the end, so I could stay honest...but I didn't have to shout it to the world!:D:p
