Pizza favorites around Memphis!

We were talking pizza today on the Classic Hits 94.1 morning show with Steve Conley and Karen Perrin.

Our discussion was prompted by a national survey that named Papa Murphy's Take 'N' Bake Pizza the favorite. But we wanted to know what folks around here were thinking…. So, we took PLENTY of calls….here are many (if not all!) of the suggestions….we just got so many.... both local and national. So, in no particular order…….

Things I never thought I'd do........

1) I never thought I’d….enjoy gardening, but as of this month I have now successfully planted 10 shrubs. 3 are successfully flowering azaleas.

2) I never though I’d……let my boys play ice hockey...not because I am over protective, I just don't want the 45-minute drive to the ice rink. We are signing up my nine year old this week.

3) I never thought I’d ….care that my boys don't get straight A's. I want my boys to get all A's, nary a B. A mom can dream can’t she. :)

4) And finally, I never really thought of myself as competitive, however, in our KQK Challenge I tied the listener and Steve decided that meant tie goes to the listener. Cool, give him the prize, but I want a tie in my column, not a loss! :) Also, while I tell my kids it's not whether they win or lose it's how they play the game...I must admit I enjoy when our team wins. Just being honest! Have a great day.
