Still suffering a bit of jet lag from my trip to San Diego in support of my book, Pizza for Good. We raised nearly $2,000 for San Diego Humane Society, and not all donations have been locked in. I’ll do a full recap on the book blog, too, over the weekend.
Vol. 72 will be a bit more abbreviated than normal, but watch for it tomorrow or at the latest Saturday.

More to come.
