I Hope Pizza Prince Has Enough of "the Works"!

Looks like most of Lawndale has shown up for National Pizza with the Works Except Anchovies Day, which is one of the most specific holidays I have ever seen. Go ahead and pile up those toppings, and my sincere apologies to those of you out there who like anchovies on their pizza. All three of you.

This is also the anniversary of Auguste Rodin's birth in 1840, something that artist Jane would probably appreciate. Even if she has her doubts about whether or not that Lawn Jockey with Lantern is an original or a forgery.
