It just might be, because when I mention Giolitti Fine Italian Market & Delicatessen (here is their lunch menu, their dinner menu, more about them, and contact information) to friends who live, work, or spend time in the area, either they haven’t heard of it, or didn’t realize they make pizza. I was one of them. I […]
It doesn’t get much better than that. I’ve been sentimental to our state capitol for as long as I had any sense of to what a capitol was. So it’s been at least a few weeks. In all seriousness, I’ve had a love affair with Annapolis, dating back to family road trips […]
I wanted to wish congratulations to the Class of 2015. Many Universities are having ceremonies this week and that includes the Naval Academy. I actually helped with the set up and break down of the stage and seating, for their ceremony one year ago. In honor of graduation day, Memorial Day, and my sentimentality for […]
I love Annapolis. As the weather gets warmer, there will be more visits to this wonderful town. And that means more pizza recaps. This post will be dedicated to one of the more popular destinations downtown. Charlie’s Bar at Mangia’s is in the heart of the city. It has a great view of the nearby […]
I ate a Three Brothers restaurant many years ago, not appreciating the significance of family, or a family operation. When I was younger, I appreciated local business, but maybe not in the same way I do now. I’m always sentimental to stories about family, and how one business grows into many. Bigger than that, when […]
Well it’s innovative to me. The Italian Market of Annapolis is one of those venues that’s going to need a few visits to fully appreciate and grasp everything that’s going on. Because it feels like a stadium or an arena from the outside. And I almost felt intimated walking in. But I made myself feel intimidated. […]
I had all these titles in mind, and nothing stood out. It all seemed forced. It all seems, well, suited for another time. In a way I’m working backwards and forwards, and it’s a continuation of something I spoke of two weeks ago. There’s going to be a point where my love for Annapolis (and […]
That’s the feeling I got when I walked into Sammy’s Italian Pizza Kitchen, in the Eastport neighborhood of Annapolis. I’ve talked at length (history can be found here), about my fondness for our state capital. Here’s Sammy’s menus, contact info, and more on their story can be found at the bottom of their main page. […]
The word ‘harvest’, evokes feelings of happiness, joy, tranquility, organic experiences, and well I honestly could go on and on. It reminds me of what’s good in life, farmer’s markets, a sense of community, giving, and kindness. Why does a harvest do this for me? Maybe something happened in my past, and maybe a bunch […]
Although it’s been said many times, many ways, I adore Annapolis. How many times can you or I praise something before it loses it’s shine, and it starts to feel transparent? Well when you give authentic love and energy to anything, I don’t think there can ever be enough praise. One year ago I was […]
