Name Your Own Pizza Contest: Honorable Mention
So, we started this contest with our newsletter subscribers and ran it for a few weeks to get our first winner before putting it on the homepage of the site this morning.
We chose the first winner (we'll be adding a new winner once a month or thereabouts).
This one didn't win. The crew would riot if it did. But it was too good not to share.
Anecdotal evidence suggests Bill's a teacher in Columbia, but the kids in question are his own and pictured here.
Bill's got a cool blog, too. You should check it out when you have a minute or six.
Name of pizza: The Happy Kids (a.k.a. The Take This Job and Shove It)
Name: Bill Morgan
The Pizza: Regular White Crust. Cheese Only.
Special Instructions:
1. Begin by making a pizza that starts as think on one side, morphs into regular by the middle, and finishes as thin on the far side. 2. Rotate the pizza 1/3rd. 3. Spread sauce so that it starts as extra sauce, changes to regular sauce in the middle, and ends up as light sauce. 4. Rotate the pizza 1/3rd. 5. Sprinkle cheese so that it originates as extra cheese, develops into regular cheese in the middle, and culminates in light cheese. 6. Cut into 20+ kid-sized slices. (Actual necessary number of slices needs to be determined by a cook who is also majoring in math.)
Why is it worthy of your name?
This pizza has two great benefits: 1. You will have achieved every possible kid-friendly combination. Got a kid who wants thick crust, light sauce, and extra cheese? It's there. One's whining for thin crust, extra sauce, and light cheese. It's there. The beefy kid wants extra everything--crust, sauce, and cheese. It's there. This leads to benefit #2: 2. Every kid is happy. (Or, in case they still aren't happy, you've eliminated all possible causes and can now justify telling them, "Stop complaining!")
You can name a pizza after your kids, too, if you want, and possibly win fame and fortune.
