Good blog and great pizza

Happiness is...learning enough about the blog settings that you finally figure out how to cut out those spammers who have such lovely offers to make more money and enhance yourself in interesting ways.  So, hopefully from here on out I have defeated the spammers!


Happiness is also a great big slice of pizza from Goodfella's.  A wonderful Downtown hole in the wall where you can buy just a slice.  A bigger-than-your-head slice of the best (per my daughter) darn pizza in town.  Or, a whole darn pizza that I promise you only barely fits in the trunk of my minivan.

Standard Thursday night operating procedure for Mathews' family dinner:  Minivan pulls up on sidewalk across Mill Street from Goodfella's after picking up ballet dancers.  Ballet girls (as they are now known at Goodfella's) hop out with $20 in hand to fetch one 1/2 cheese/1/2 chicken & bacon pizza.  Girls leave store straining to carry this over-sized monstrosity as mom pops trunk and girls wedge it into a hopefully empty Honda Odyssey trunk. Change from the $20 is given back to mother.(amazing). Carpool riders are dropped off and much happiness ensues at the Mathews' house as Mathews' girls attempt to get 3 foot pizza box through door of the house.

Ahhh, such delicious specialness.  If you haven't been to Goodfella's, you've missed one of the best deals in town and maybe the experience that Lexington is a little bit New York cool afterall.     

(Above photo was taken on an Actual Thursday night -- ballet girl is at the counter in there!)

  1. Forgot to mention that Goodfella's is located on N. Mill Street in the block between Main and Short Streets!

  2. Ohh the picture is too blurry, I can't see ballet girl!

    We should take David there next time he goes to Lexington. He would love it!

  3. Absolutely! We must make David love Lexington so that he'll want to move here and then we won't have to come up with inclement weather to keep you in Lexington. There is music in Lexington but there would be more and better if we had a good jazz guitarist in town.
