Wig & Pen Offers an Iowa City Twist to Stuffed Pizza
iahawk89 is right about Pagliai's. Best pizza in Iowa City, hands down.
And when you're in Iowa City again, be sure to check out:
- Airliner (an Iowa City tradition. There's a booth named after Tom Brokaw, who dined there several times, and they have a delicious thin crust)
- The Wedge Pizzeria (some of the best specialty creations. delicious.)
- the new Mesa Pizza (caters to the drunk crowd, but some innovative and pretty good topping combos)
Threadless T-Shirt Giveaway: Booty Fruit
Mango!
(or cherries)
Threadless T-Shirt Giveaway: A Piece of Cake
The Cake Doctor cookbook has a recipe for boxed cake that substitutes melted ice cream for the liquids. I love to make devils food with melted Ben & Jerry's Half Baked – then, there are chunks of brownie and chunks of chocolate chip cooking INSIDE your devils food!
(White cake mix with melted Ben & Jerry's Pistachio Pistachio is a good choice, too…)

http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/ is one of my favorites (along with SE, of course!) - her entire blog receives several visits a day from me as I check to see if there is anything new - I discovered this delightful site this summer - I've tried several of her recipes, and am smitten - I'd really love to win her cookbook!
