figaro shenanigans - saturday, and a pizza lunch

 

"what are you looking at me for? i'm just enjoying my afternoon."

after the figaro show, greg and i walked to a new pizza place we've been wanting to try . .










the pizza was quite good, not quite lombardi's, but . . good. the place took over a neighborhood stationary store which had been around for over ten years, so i'm a little ambivalent about having something new in its stead. the owner of the building wouldn't give a break to the stationary store renters at the beginning of covid, and they didn't qualify for aid as they employed less than the required number of workers. many neighbors tried to get them to stay when they heard (saying they should put up a "go fund me" which i think would have been successful) but they said it was too late. it stayed empty until two months ago. i'm not sure who the pizza owners are. it doesn't feel like a mom and pop place and the website is very impersonal.

  1. I have to admit that the pizza place does not really look so inviting. More and more stationery places are closing here too. There are so many dogs in your picture! And Figaro was probably rehearsing for the real "Figaro."
