Chef Ben Vaughn Discusses the History of Pizza
Chef Ben Vaughn refers to pizza as the dish that conquered the world. While it is true there are many recipes that have made it all over the globe, pizza has a special place in the heart of food lovers. Pizza, notes Chef Ben Vaughn, is a simple and adaptable dish that is easily changed to suit the culture for which it is adopted. So, even though pizza is considered an Italian invention, you will notice, says Chef Ben Vaughn, that a modern Chicago pizza looks nothing like its traditional Italian counterpart. Except maybe that both are round. Here, Chef Ben Vaughn discusses a brief history of pizza.

Making Your Home More Efficient

Carmack Moving – TIPS FOR REDUCING THE STRESS OF A MAJOR MOVE
by Robert Carmack, Carmack Moving

While professional movers such as Carmack Moving offer direction on how to plan for a move, it is still best to also think things through yourself. Once everything is packed up and ready to load, make sure the things you will need least are loaded on to the truck first. Simple common sense is needed when loading the truck. Place the box containing things like your best dishes on top of the box of books and not vice versa.
