Seafood pizzas, shrimp pizzas...at Apollo Pizza
Been searching everywhere for seafood pizzas (in NY, CT, NJ) and finally found Apollo Pizza (Derby, CT)
My fav is the "Shrimp Casino Pizza". Generous toppings & lots of shrimps. Yum :):)
Other pizzas on the menu are really good too! But for me, I haven't had seafood/shrimp pizzas in years so I only had eyes for the seafood pizzas

Songs by Little Miss Cornshucks
Was listening to a documentary titled "The Lost Legacy of Little Miss Cornshucks" and was struck by her amazing voice (I like her voice as much as I like Marni Nixon's and Ella Fitzgerald's, etc). I absolutely love some of Little Miss Cornshucks' songs that were featured in the documentary. I'm both intrigued by her life story (and how someone with such a wonderful singing voice never became a famous singer).
Happy to find that her songs are available on youtube. Here's one of my favorites :
Title: Try a Little Tenderness (source: Youtube)
Do listen to it while enjoying a cup of coffee! :)
Another one of my favorite songs - "No Teasing Around"

Best "Double Chocolate Cheesecake" and "New York Cheesecake" in NYC
@ Marthe's Country Bakery in Astoria
Yes, I usually like anything that's chocolate-flavored & coffee-flavored, but this classic slice of New York cheesecake is so good I have to include some photos of it
I did also try the chocolate cheesecake at Martha's Country Bakery. It tastes a lot better than it looks in the photo :D
