Good golly...we are almost home free

Thank you, Sir. 

I've been using a mix of 2 parts Kraft or Sargento shredded whole milk to 1 part Kraft smoked provolone slices that I shred by hand.   

Like we did where I worked back in the day, I use a good amount of grated Romano in the sauce and also sprinkled on top of the pie before launching.

I’ll try that out.  I’ve been tinkering with the cheese blend and always looking for something different.  I’ve put provolone on my deep dishes but never smoked provolone.  I’ve been going with mozzarella/Gouda/cheddar on my thins lately.  Where did you work at?

I worked at Rosati's in Darien, IL for 4 yrs in the mid-80s.  We used a blend of whole milk, part-skim, and smoked provolone.  I can't recall for sure what was the ratio.  It was either 2 parts whole milk to 1 part part skim to 1/2 part smoked provolone OR 2 parts part skim to 1 part whole milk to 1/2 part smoked provolone. 

At the house nowadays and with the limited choices for cheese around here, my favorite so far has been the 2 parts whole milk to 1 part smoked provolone.

Once in awhile I get a taste for the little feeshes, so sausage and anchovy tonight.

I don’t care for anchovies but that is a great looking pizza! Many of my relatives are from the Clarksburg/Bridgeport area. Feesh, as I have learned, can be a noun or a verb.   
- we are having feesh tonight for dinner
- i’m getting up early in the morning, there is a little stream I want to feesh

Yes! 

Another one sort of like that is Holler --
There's no feesh in the creek that runs through this holler, but they're loaded in the next holler over. 
And conversations often end with, "I'll holler at you."  That's synonymous with "I'll catch you later."   

It's been a lot of fun getting in tune with the dialect here.
