Last week's poll question has stirred a craving for pizza.

Specifically, Mom's homemade pizza. The crust wasn't fancy. Usually, she whipped up the recipe printed on the Bisquick box and added a few herbs and spices to make it her own. She'd brown seasoned ground beef, mince a yellow onion, chop black olives into rings and dice mushrooms and green peppers. A thin coating of pizza sauce and generous amount of mozzarella made it a special treat.

Homemade with love, not a quick and easy takeout option.

Pizza reminds me of my high school boyfriend, double dates and Friday night trips to Ray's Pizza...
