“Little Miss Margherita,” with Blaine and Honey Parker

Welcome back to Pizza Quest.

You may remember Blaine Parker from an earlier episode in which we discussed his book and website, Free the Pizza, which is a humorous, step-by-step manual for how to make restaurant quality pizzas in a home oven. Well, Blaine is back, along with his talented wife and writing/producing partner, Honey Parker, to tell us all about a new documentary film they are making. The full title is “Little Miss Margherita: A Misundertood Pizza in a Misunderstood Place.” The place they are referring to is the state of Mississippi, along the Gulfport Coast. There’s a lot more to the story, and it’s much more fun to hear Blaine and Honey tell us about it in their own words. Also, Honey talks a bit about her series of rom-com novels, “The V-Life,” about Sugar Bernstein, a New York ad-woman who also happens to be a vampire (yes, you heard that right). We even discuss who Honey hopes will be cast to play Sugar when the books become a movie. Tune in to find out who is on the wish list….

Pizza Quest is a site dedicated to the exploration of artisanship in all forms, wherever we find it, but especially through the literal and metaphorical image of pizza. As we share our own quest for the perfect pizza we invite all of you to join us and share your journeys too. We have discovered that you never know what engaging roads and side paths will reveal themselves on this quest, but we do know that there are many kindred spirits out there, passionate artisans, doing all sorts of amazing things. These are the stories we want to discover, and we invite you to jump on the proverbial bus and join us on this, our never ending pizza quest.
