Matthew and I have been doing all kinds of things during the @shareomaha #dogoodweek. We’ve made donations to @ibeblackgirl and @savinggracefood. We fulfilled some wish list items for @felinefriendz, the volunteer group we adopted our cats from. Today, on #volunthursday we walked around our neighborhood and picked up two bags of litter as part of…

A few readers were confused about who won the #omahapizzabracket. No further confusion necessary! Also congratulations to Bridget Hale, the winner of the $50 @mangiaitalianaomaha gift card! Her first round vote for @goviafarina got selected randomly from the 112,355 votes.

We used it as part of a simple…

The day has come! Omaha’s final four in the #omahapizzabracket.Is it my final four? Nope. I’ll be sharing that on the blog this week, along with another new pizza review. Until then, vote!

One thing has become clear in the past two weeks: Omahans have a deeply personal, very specific like for a certain kind of pizza, and their likes beer strong toward nostalgia. Our Elite 8 proves that! Voting is open now through Sunday, so get them cast to choose your favorite. You know where to go:…

Pizza friends: It’s getting down to the wire. Some will lose. Some will win.Who will you vote for? Whatever the answer, do it now at the link in my profile. #omahapizzabracket
