Dever Date Night: SliceWorks Pizza


Alternate title: I Told You I Still Eat Pizza!

Kevin has been accusing me lately that I won’t even eat pizza any more! So not true. Pizza is actually one of my favorite foods!! Just not one of the healthier ones. And I don’t always feel great after eating it since I’m used to eating pretty clean.

I did a quick Google for Date Night ideas this morning and came across SliceWorks Pizza… and better yet, a Yelp coupon deal!

They didn’t have their windows open today – the pic is from their Facebook page - it’s starting to get too cold to take outdoor pics!

You know what wins my heart at restaurants?

Free cheese pizza samples while I wait!

We arrive at about 8:30PM and sat in the upstairs bar area — it was pretty chill with a nice view of the lovely Colfax… lol. Some interesting establishments nearby.

We didn’t spend too much time poring over the menu because we are both immediately attracted to Buffalo Chicken! No big surprise there!! It was pretty amazing. You could also order pizza by the slice (obviously) which we thought would be fun to do sometime as well. The slices are definitely plate-sized!

We’re so proud of ourselves for using a coupon. Even if we did do it the old-fashioned way and print it out!!

Earlier…

Pippa and I had an interesting run today!

We were a half mile away from home when this little guy started following us!! I was so worried about him! Pippa was totally sweet and gentle with him.

I think I eventually chased him back home, but not before I had to save him when he tried to cross a busy street!!! He wouldn’t let me catch him either — I was shocked how fast that little guy could run! I mean, I could probably catch him, but it’s tricky with Pippa in tow!

So that added almost a mile to our run today!!! Haha.

When I got home, I did this WOD from my WOD Genius app. I have students intermittently from 9AM-8PM on Thursdays so I didn’t really have time to make it to the gym. I made it through 4.5 rounds plus a few burpees! I added weights to the jumping jacks, and I was surprised at how difficult the workout was!

Thursday at 8PM is like my Friday 5PM — woohooo!!! I have the whole day tomorrow to primp for the ballet!!!

How often do you eat pizza? We used to always eat it on Fridays but have gotten out of the habit for a while. (Partly because I’ve been tracking calories for my boot camp!)

Do you ever use Yelp deals or Groupon type offers? This was our first. We’re not that organized!

  1. haha it looks like the little doggie wants to hump pippa. my brother’s little dog wants to do that to my parents dog all the time! and I wished WOD Genius was on android … :/

  2. I need to try different types of pizza– I’m a pepperoni and cheese fan, but that one looks really good.

  3. Thanks for the reminder, there was a great Groupon yesterday for a food processor & I’m due for a new one! I get Groupon & Living Social deals via email but never seem to take advantage.

  4. My husband and I usually get pizza at least once a week. It’s by far my favorite food ever!

  5. Mmmm…pizza! We tend to go out for pizza a couple of times a month but I also like making it at home (or calzones!).
    At first I thought Pippa had that dog in her mouth!

  6. what a cool place. I am the coupon queen so i can so relate to this. that always happened when I was walking my dog, a random dog would come up out of no where. so crazy

    oh man i love pizza. probably have it at least once a week. i went through a phase though where I didnt eat it at all which was weird. I love Groupon!! Although in our new city there is none. BOOO. So I just have to get my fix with Groupon Goods! LOL

    that first picture of the little dog had me thinking it was a rabbit. ha! I did a serious double take…I thought “that’s one tame rabbit!” ;-)

  9. The last time that I had pizza was June 2 – the day of our wedding party! We bought it for all the generous folks who helped us set up :)

  10. I didn’t know Yelp had deals like that. Awesome! Also, I love the idea of pizza sliver samples.

  11. Mmmmmm! Buffalo Chicken pizza- totally my kind of meal- the husband would go nuts for this! …. Hooray for your ’5:00 Friday’ and that the lessons are going well!

  12. What a cute little friend you made on your run! My little puppy is really fast too! I’m convinced it’s because she’s so small she can go so fast! That pizza looks amazing too by the way! I haven’t had pizza in forever and this post totally makes me want some!

  13. Free cheese pizza samples while you wait?! What?! Amazing!! That pizza place looks great. Glad you guys got to go. :)

    Also glad you saved the little pup while he was crossing the street!

  14. I love pizza, too. I have the same problem as far as too many calories…I cannot limit myself to just 2 slices. I seem to have a bottomless pit when it comes to pizza. I subscibe to the idiom that even bad pizza is good pizza.
    I use Groupons quite a bit. I get pretty stoked when I get one for a place that we already frequent. I have two waiting to be used right now for favorite places. Plus, some good ones come across for family activities like museums and bounce houses. I’ve also gotten half off of really nice watches for my husband (he collects them).

  15. Funny, I can’t remember the last time I had pizza. It’s not something that I HAVE to have, so I usually don’t eat it unless I make it at home.

    I’m going to look up that WOD app….sounds interesting! :) Happy Friday!

    Yum! That pizza looks amazing! I have pizza probably once a month, there’s a chain of “posh” pizza places over here that ALWAYS have special deal vouchers running, it’s a nice venue to visit to catch up with friends.

    I am addicted to GroupOn, Living Social, Wowcher and Time Out deals. I tend to buy vouchers to try out new fitness activities or get a bulk discount on yoga classes. At the moment I’m frantically trying to use up a pile of them before they expire – over the last 2 weeks I’ve been boxing, to hot yoga, climbing and trapezing!
