Monochrome Monday & National Pizza Day

Once again I'm letting Mom play around.... with Picasa....
This is a vintage delivery van owned by local Ace Hardware at Seaboard Station in Raleigh.
Do yo like it in black and white
Barbie pink
or its true current color of ORANGE

Madi and Mom
Today April 5 is National Deep Dish Pizza Day...according to Mom's crazy calendar.
So if you are so inclined enjoy a piece of pizza today!!!
Pizza Trivia:
In 1905, Lombardi's Pizzeria Napoletana, on Spring St. in New York City, became the first American pizzeria. The top week for pizza sales is Super Bowl week.

  5. Thank you for coming to visit, Madi. As I always maintain, I like cats just fine. My cats are not so crazy about me, although at least after a year I think they are learning that I don't do anything to bother them. We love pizza here, but since we live in NY we don't eat much deep dish pizza. It's strictly Neopolitan (round, thin crust) or Siciilian (rectangular, thicker crust). Doesn't matter much to me. I just mostly eat the crust and only if I'm in the mood. Now international pooper scooper week is something we can all get behind.

    Love the photos. B & W seems just right for that van.

    wags, Lola

  6. I didn't know it's a Pizza day today!
    Too bad it's already past 21:30 in Tokyo and I've finished my dinner.
    And the picture looks so different in those different colors!
    I enjoyed watching them!
    Have a happy Monday!

  11. We like the black/white version of the van. although Halle prefers the pink one!...Our Mom had thin crust spinach pizza last night and she didn't even know about the National Pizza Day; she doesn't eat meat, so pizza around here isn't too exciting for us!!...We always miss seeing you Madi, but hope you have a wonderful week...xo...Calle,Halle,Sukki

  18. Hi Madi & Mom,

    That is a really nice old van, it looks great in B/W but the Barbie pink is also totally cool.

    We love your calendar and useless information book. How can information be useless if it is so entertaining?

    Hugs and Purrs,
