Ladder Coffee on Monroe Street in good ol’ Spokane is a beautiful place. You walk into a view of a wide-open space with windows on every side, natural wood tones, and greenery hanging from the exposed beams overhead. I used to be a barista at a place like this—ok, not this cool—so I’m liable to […]
It’s a Friday and just Tony and I are in the office as the team is working remotely. I holler across the hall… got lunch plans, Baird? He responds with a no and before you know it, we’ve got an order in at Versalia. If you’re looking for thin crust pizza in Spokane, Versalia is
It’s Saturday morning, and I’ve just woken up because my dog, Hank, is throwing an absolute fit. He wants to go outside and will stop at nothing until I let him out. We’re talking full-blown toddler fit, throwing this head around, scratching at the door and the side of our bed. At first I was
9 times out of 10, it’s pizza for the win. But what about when supply-side issues come into play? Is pizza more delicious when in short supply? This October, the world peered down on Austin, Texas for the US Grand Prix at the Circuit of the Americas. In attendance was a group of dads and

Rolling across the tarmac after a bumpy landing at Denver International Airport, I looked over at Jeremy to remind him that we’ve got official business here in town: find some pizza. Among other things, of course. You didn’t think we flew to Denver just for a pizza did you?! Needless to say, the pizza was
Licensing issues aside, I love this t-shirt. Partly because I love anything pizza. But also because of the reaction I got when I gave it to my four-year-old. “Check it out buddy, it’s Spider-Man eating pizza.” “That’s silly, he’s got no mouth!,” he said. What a hellish nightmare.
