St. Louis pizza is horrible! We tried it twice after we moved here, thinking the first place must have been bad luck. Never again!

Lots of guests told us it was the most fun wedding they'd ever been to! <br /><br />According to my daughter, who's lived in St. Louis for 8 years, the pizza cheese is provel--a melding of provolone and mozzarella, I believe. She finds it to be quite grotesque.

And lucky me, I got to crawl after him carrying his crutches.
