I’m a Michigan girl, born and raised (er, actually I was born in Texas but we moved back to Michigan when I was 14 months old so I don’t really count that).

Pizza. Most of us really love a great pizza. Bold statement? Nah, I bet it’s true. Wether you believe it’s the toppings or the crust that really ‘makes’ the pizza, the fact remains that you must have a crust as the vehicle for the toppings. So, that crust better be darn good.
