Dominos!!

Now normally, I am not a fan of pizza not made at home (the difference is amazing guys, you gotta go home made), but I often make a special exception for Domino's Pizza. Not only is their new recipe a vast improvement over the original, but with their 2-2 topping pizzas for $6 each promotion I can get enough food for several meals, which is great for the mornings I don't want to eat leftover daal for breakfast - leftover pizza is always yummy. :) The new garlic topping on the crust may make the pizza a little salty for my tastes, but as a result I always drink my recommended 8 glasses of water on those days, so I can't complain too much.

But by far the best aspect of ordering Domino's Pizza is the Pizza Tracker. The pizza tracker gives you current, up to date information as to the status of your order, saying things like "Greg put your pizza in the oven at 1:45 pm" or "Our delivery expert Matthew left the store with your order at 2:00 pm". As my friends and I have ordered from the same Domino's for the past few years, we've gotten to recognize most of the names on the Tracker, and will waste our time chatting about things like "Oh hey, Craig's making our pizza! He's a good kid. Last time he made my order my pizza had a lot of toppings, so I think we're in for a treat." It's also good for the employee, as our tipping amounts have grown exponentially now that we know who's making our order.

But of course, the best thing about ordering from Domino's is a chance to see my favorite delivery man, Shoaib. When my friend Heather and I order pizza and see that Shoaib is delivering, we know that our tip must now be even greater than originally planned, and I think he knows that we like to see him, as he probably has a good laugh at our silly antics. Needless to say, when I write my extensive comments in the online section right under the Pizza Tracker, I always manage to include nice things about my man Shoaib, even when he's not the one to take my order. What can I say, a gal's gotta look out for her man.

Now if you'll excuse me, I hear Matthew at the door, so I better go pick up my order!!
