If you are a returning reader of this blog, you might be wondering, “What the hell?” And I don’t blame you. If you are a new reader, a quick scan down your screen and you will find that April 28th, 2017 was the last time a post went up on A Slice of Kokomo. It is now October 11th, 2021. Whoever you may be, a former fan or a foodie looking for a good read, you’ve gotta ask, why such a gap? This place was pretty much forgotten in the archives of Blogger, and was soon destined to be shunted off into the annals of the Blogspot graveyard, deleted in order to open up the URL to the next schmuck to come along and nab it. Why bring back what was already long gone?
Given the state of the world, who wouldn’t go for a hot, cheesy slice right about now? One of the best unifiers I know is food. It brings together families every holiday, it is the central focus point of many awkward parties, and, most importantly, it gives you a break from the chaos around you. Food, in particular pizza, is such a great way to look through the doom and gloom of our current state of affairs and find some light in this perpetual tunnel. It might only be lunch break-sized reprieve, but I, myself, could sure go for a 30 minute escape from the world to chow down on some marinara-soaked globs of mozzarella.
So, what we want to do here is this: We are going to revisit some of the pizza that started it all. I intend to take a look back at what the world has done to some of our favorite pizza joints in the past few years, as well as hit up our newest establishments that call this area their home. Throw in a few hijinks, a couple interviews, and plenty of mouth-watering photos, and you’ve got yourself an old-fashion foodie blog. But, what we really want to do is assuage your worries and woes in a world driven mad by modern problems. What we need right now is a release, a reason to celebrate, and a tasty meal.
More than ever before, Kokomo, Indiana needs pizza.
Thank you all for reading. Welcome back.
P.S.--Returning readers, do not fear! Paul isn’t gone. He will be taking a backseat role for now, and potentially headlining some big add-ons coming for A Slice of Kokomo in the future (maybe).
