Missing Pizza


I hate pizzas, but I miss CS pizza in Rockville, MD.

This place was opened by two young men with a love for Napoletana pizza, and they concocted the most exquisite tomato sauce to compliment the dough. My favorite way to top the pizza is with Sopresatta and Brussels sprouts.

I watch as the waiter holds up the tray of pizza, looking for the owner. Watching him, hoping he is walking in my direction, I salivate. Then as the plate of pizza is placed on the table in front of me, I know if my heart could, it would smile. I am served with the perfect pizza with golden brown bubbles dotted around the crust; it's a truly beautiful sight. I sit very still to take in the beauty of the pizza, marveling at the vibrant green color of each petal of Brussels sprouts lying atop, and admiring the appearance of this absolutely perfect pie that I ordered--I smirk at my own genius.

I worry that this time my taste buds will find flaws with the pizza, but I fall in love with it again and again. It is predictably good. As the first bite of the pizza hits my mouth, I breath deeply in complete happiness, I can feel my shoulders relaxed and instead of wolfing it down, I discipline my mind to remember the taste, the depth and layers of flavor. It leaves me with no wants. I inhale; the fragrance from the sweet tomato sauce seeps in deeper, and the papillae on my tongue dance.
