There are good days to go shopping, and then there are what I call "bad jeans days." Nothing like a pair of skinny jeans to make me feel like Jabba the Hut...

Ah, here's part two of my Chicago trip comics -- about my encounter with Chicago style pizza!


Being from Hawaii, the words "just for tourists" brings up images of tacky luaus, the Polynesian Cultural Center and buying an oyster with a pearl, so I almost didn't try it, but well, pizza and me, we go way back, so I hadda try it.

Giordano's stuffed pizza did not disappoint -- it was cheesy and tasty, even if it did take a while to get to me. But to show you how far I've come as a mainlander, I managed to squash my "Hawaii-omiyage" impulses to buy a pizza to take back with me to the Bay Area.
