Last night was my boyfriend Michael’s Surprise Birthday party! I had it at Apizza Scholl’s here in Portland (his favorite pizza) http://www.apizzascholls.com/. They have gourmet pizza to die for. Here’s an example of a few pizzas we got:
Pig & Pineapple – $23 Our house plain pie plus Applewood smoked Canadian bacon, Onions and Pineapple.
New York White Pie – $22 Mozzarella (whole milk & fresh), pecorino romano, ricotta, lots of fresh garlic, herbs, black pepper, sea salt, extra virgin olive oil.
Plain Tomato Pie – $19 Tomato sauce, mozzarella (whole milk & fresh), pecorino romano and extra virgin olive oil with Hot Capicollo.
Apizza Scholls
Michael was totally surprised! Success! I was glad no one spilled the beans, and 12 of his friends showed up to help celebrate. We had black balloons and his friend Scott kindly made a banner. 
Pizza Pies
The pizzas were a hit. There were a few pitchers of Portland beer. I had 2 glasses of Pinot Grigio. I had two pieces of pizza–even though I wanted a third, I held back (thank goodness) and then the night went downhill (calorie wise).
The Aftermath
The party moved next door to the Bar of the Gods and I had two more glasses of wine. 
I have no idea what I was thinking. We were having a great time and I just wasn’t paying attention. I’ve been kicking myself all morning for essentially drinking a bottle of wine! UGH! I am a two drink kind of a person. Last night was just a stupid mistake. Oh well, nothing I can do about it now.
It was a great night. I had a lot of fun and Michael was happy. Successful night!
QUESTION: Have you ever regretted something you ate or drank?
First of all, I LOOOOOVE Apizza Scholls! They definitely have the best pizza in town! I’d hate the see the calorie counts on those slices, though…
I always find myself regretting my food/beverage choices. For instance, I drank 4 GIANT German beers on Saturday while enjoying the great weather on Prost’s patio. Oops! In the end, it won’t kill my diet (nor will your bottle of wine kill yours) – we just need to remember to get back on track the next morning!
Ooh! Another Apizza Scholls fan! It’s one of my favorites (Mississippi Pizza is my other fave). The slices are humongous. So even though I had 2 slices, it was probably more like 4!
I’ve never heard of Prost’s but I love places that have patios! Perfect for nice weather.
Yumm, this puts the plain cheese slice I had last night to shame! And don’t worry, there’s no such thing as TOO much wine! Well, unless it A: Gets you kicked out of the bar B: Clouds your judgment and causes you to go home with a guy 5 years younger than you. Umm, yeah…)

At least I enjoyed the wine!
