Fall

October 31, 2011 By Jonathan

What is there not to like about Fall?  This is my favorite part of the year.  The cooling temperatures, warming sun, lack of humidity and general feel of Fall is all I need to just enjoy every minute of it.  Not to mention the awesome colors that mother nature bestows on us.  I can only hope to be so pretty as I wither and grow old.  I imagine I am not alone in the feeling that the 100% humidity and 100 degree temps of August in Georgia are not the reason we live here.  Could the 65 and sunny degree weather of yesterday be the reason? Get outside and enjoy it.

As we continue to grow as a business and gain more experience, we have become bolder with our menu and with what we try.  I love looking thru the market or really anywhere outdoors and take in the inspiration.  I want people to taste Fall in our pizzas.  Hence, the inspiration for our new Apple Pizza, i.e. “Apple Awesomeness”.  Apples, bacon, goat feta, and a splash of pesto sings sweet fall flavors to me.  Looking for something more rustic and hearty you can’t beat wood-fired roasted butternut squash.  Our Squash pizza pairs, roasted butternut squash, olive oil, sage, ricotta and a touch of honey into a taste of Fall.  What other fall flavors do people love?  I am in the infant stages of my cooking life and I am growing and learning everyday.  I would love some opinions from S & J's Woodfired Pizza fans.  What do you want to see on your pizza?  Get in touch with me at let us know.  Or post something on our wall.

All Tongue Tied

October 31, 2011 By Jonathan

Obviously by reading the title of this post you know that Sarah is not writing this.  Was it the words I was trying to say, the moment I was taking in, the love and happiness in my heart that was blocking my throat, the difficulty in describing an eternity in a few sentences, or just sheer fear and terror of having to be intimately serious with one person in front of 30?  Those were the thoughts of my performance saying my vows on October 7 2011.  With a perfect setting in the North Georgia Mountains at dusk with friends and family I had an extremely hard time saying my vows to my lovely wife.   Luckily she jumped in and of course had no trouble with hers.  When it became my turn again, I still couldn’t really get those vocal cords moving.  Piece by piece and excruciating minute by minute I made it thru them.  I am not sure the specific reason for the trouble but to those who didn’t hear me or just for my Baby if she wants to read.  “Love you baby and thanks for marrying me.”  Also, thanks to those who came and celebrated all weekend with us.  It was great and we are so glad you came.

The Grant Park Farmer’s Market was crazy yesterday.  We sold more pizzas at the market than we have ever sold before at a farmer’s market.  I guess delicious ingredients, awesome weather and a hot ‘za are a good combination.  I am glad Sarah and I thought so 18 months ago and went ahead with our dream.  We feel very lucky to be a part of a great thing going on in Grant Park.  The vibe at the market was awesome.  How can you not be happy with sun, music, food, hoola hooping, and the smell of a fire?  Oh, and I didn’t mention the marching band or the costumes.  Gotta check it out.
