Need a reason to indulge in carbs? It’s National Pizza Month. Pizza deserves a celebration, being the most Instagrammed food worldwide, according to a study commissioned by Chef Alessio Mecozzi. You might have thought beautifully decorated cupcakes or sushi (#2) would have reigned supreme on Instagram. What is interesting is that six percent of the photos of pizza were posted by New York City pizza aficionados and only two percent were posted by Instagrammers in Italy.

Pizza is big business, having an international trade show, “Pizza Expo” and a trade magazine “Pizza Today.” We have Gerry Durnell (1942-2011), the founder of the magazine and trade show, to thank for the month’s celebration. Why October? It was in October of 1984 when the magazine debuted. Then, in 1987 the U.S. Congress officially designated October as National Pizza Month. The current issue pays homage to National Pizza Month – where it says, “The Northeast has the highest concentration of pizzerias and Italian restaurants in the U.S.”

I hope you didn’t get number 6 wrong!

New Haven, CT has been my home for almost four decades, and one thing that has not changed is the question I am often asked by visitors…What is the best place for pizza in New Haven, Sally’s or Pepe’s. Both are legendary pizzerias, well-known throughout the U.S. and beyond. Of course, when I moved to New Haven it was a must to wait on the long lines to get a table at these famous establishments. Now, when I pass by their restaurants on historic Wooster Street in New Haven’s Little Italy, I say to myself they must be tourists or recently moved to the area. Over the years, I have come to find the pies at Modern and BAR just as good minus the long lines. Of course, that is only my opinion. Truth be told, as a native New Yorker, I still think pizza is best in “the city.”

I can bet in your area, there is the debate as to what pizza is the best around town. Please let me know, so when I next visit Greater Philadelphia, I’ll know where to go for the best pizza.

Of course, each of us have a favorite style…Neapolitan, Chicago, New York Style, Sicilian, Greek, California, Detroit, St. Louis, New Haven-style apizza (pronounced ah-beets by many locals)

Whatever the type of crust (thin or thick) or style of pizza, the sky is the limit as to the ingredients to make pizza. The artisan pies created today fit the bill for many, but if you are like me, I am a traditionalist when it comes to pizza. I will leave the sriracha sauce, apples and goat cheese, blue cheese and pumpkin to dishes other than pizza. I must admit though, the mashed potato and bacon pizza served at BAR in New Haven is an exception!

If you have joined or thinking about joining the home pizza making craze check out “Pizza: The Ultimate Cookbook,” by Barbara Caracciolo (2020 Cider Mill Press,$35) . From backyard wood-fired pizza ovens to electric portable pizza ovens for the kitchen to equipment to make crispy pies in your traditional oven, the book will become your go-to for recipes (there are more than 300!) that will capture your taste buds and provide inspiration. Before getting to the recipes, the author writes about the history of pizza and in-depth discussions about the various styles of pizza. I learned what the difference is between New Haven-style and New York-style pizza. She writes, “The biggest difference when compared to New York pizza is the omission of low-moisture mozzarella cheese. The best New Haven pizzas let the sauce shine, so much in fact they are often called tomato pie. In New Haven, mozzarella is considered a topping rather than a key component.”

The Perfect Pie chapter gives details about ingredients and equipment. The recipes for doughs (no-knead as well) for both pizza and focaccia are plentiful. The photos bring the slices to life. Now, let’s get rolling the dough with these recipes from the book. For these recipes, I’ve shared the authors’ Quick Pizza Dough recipe. There are many others to choose from. For the New Haven pie go to https://bit.ly/3El23tl

Eggs & Bacon Pizza Cold leftover pizza is always a great breakfast option, but this pie does it one better. (Photo courtesy of Cider Mill Press Book Publishers, LLC)

Pizza with Eggs & Bacon

Yield: 1 Pizza / Active Time: 15 Minutes / Total Time: 45 Minutes

The headnote says, “Cold leftover pizza is always a great breakfast option, but this pie does it one better.”

Semolina flour, as needed

1 ball pizza dough

3 ½ ounces (100 grams) low-moisture mozzarella cheese, shredded

2.4 ounces. (70 grams) bacon, cooked and chopped

2 eggs

Salt and pepper, to taste

Olive oil, as needed

Preheat the oven to the maximum temperature and place a baking stone or steel on the middle rack as it warms. Dust a work surface with the semolina flour, place the dough on the surface, and gently stretch it into a round. For more detailed instructions on properly stretching a ball of pizza dough see page 73 in the book. Cover the dough with the mozzarella and top with the bacon. Crack the eggs open onto the center of the pizza, season with salt and pepper, and drizzle olive oil over the top.

Using a peel or a flat baking sheet, transfer the pizza to the heated baking implement in the oven. Bake for about 15 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and starting to char. Remove and let cool slightly before slicing and serving.

Mixed Berry Pizza

Yield: 1 Pizza / Active Time: 15 Minutes / Total Time: 45 Minutes

The headnote says, “This is not a dessert pizza. The strawberry puree stands in for tomato sauce, pairing surprisingly well with the cheese and making for a sweet, sour, and savory flavor experience.”

1 ¾ ounces (50 grams) strawberries

Semolina flour, as needed

1 ball pizza dough

2.1 ounces (60 grams) low-moisture mozzarella cheese, shredded

1 ounce (30 grams) raspberries

1 ounce (30 grams) blackberries

1 ounce (30 grams) blueberries

Fresh basil leaves, for garnish

Preheat the oven to the maximum temperature and place a baking stone or steel on the middle rack as it warms. Place the strawberries in a blender and blitz until smooth. Strain the puree to remove the seeds and set aside.

Dust a work surface with the semolina flour, place the dough on the surface, and gently stretch it into a round. Cover the dough with the strawberry puree and top with the mozzarella, raspberries, blackberries, and blueberries.

Quick Pizza Dough

3 1/3 teaspoons 9.6 grams) active dry yeast OR 2 ½ teaspoons (8 grams) instant yeast

15 ½ ounces (440 grams) water

23.2 ounces (660 grams) bread flour OR “00” flour, plus more as needed

1 tablespoon (17 grams) table salt

Olive oil, as needed

If using active dry yeast, warm 3 ½ tablespoons (1 ¾ ounces/ 50 grams) of the water until it is about 105 degrees. Add the water and yeast to a bowl and gently stir. Let sit for 5 to 10 minutes. Instant yeast does not need to be proofed.

In a large bowl, combine the flour, yeast, and water and work the mixture until it just holds together.

If kneading by hand, transfer dough to a flour dusted surface. Work it until it is smooth and elastic. (The book gives instructions on kneading and mixing on page 71).

Add salt and knead until dough is developed, elastic, and extensible, about 5 minutes. Form dough into a ball and place in a lightly greased airtight container that is at least three times bigger. Let rest in a naturally warm spot (in the oven with light on is a good option) until it has doubled in size, about 1 hour.

Transfer dough to a floured work surface, divide it into four pieces, and shape into balls. Place the rounds in a greased baking dish with high edges, leaving enough space between rounds so that they won’t touch when fully risen. Cover with greased plastic wrap and let rest for 40 minutes to an hour before using to make pizza. Makes 4 balls of dough.

A long weekend in New Haven: where to eat, what to do, and where to stay

New Haven is Connecticut’s second-largest city, and to most it’s synonymous with two things: Yale University and pizza. Yale plays a large role in the city’s culture and the pizza is indeed up there with the best in America, but a recent visit at the invitation of Market New Haven revealed that New Haven is multi-layered and multi-faceted, a great walking town with a fascinating history, with an abundance of fun things to do and sights to see, making it a fabulous destination for a weekend jaunt.

New Haven was actually the very first planned city in America, laid out in 1638 by English Puritans according to a grid that today comprises the heart of downtown and is centered around New Haven Green, which is still the city’s town square. Like any American city that’s been around for so long, it played a role in the American Revolution (and, as it survived the Revolution relatively unscathed, many colonial features were saved), but its historical claims to fame go far beyond that: It’s where Eli Whitney developed the cotton gin and where Samuel Colt invented the revolver, it’s where the famous Amistad slave trial was held, and it’s the city that gave birth to the steamboat, the submarine, the corkscrew, the telephone directory and public phone, the lollipop, the Frisbee, the hamburger (more on that later), and the Erector Set. From the 1950s to the 1990s the city saw a period of decline (which necessitated — and was exacerbated by — an “urban renewal” project that saw parts of Downtown demolished), but within the past 20 years the city has bounced back with a vengeance, and it’s become a cultural destination for restaurants, bars, retail, and nightlife, with an influx of high-end housing developments and multi-use conversions of historic buildings making it a fantastic place to live and visit.

After a quick train ride from New York City (about an hour and 40 minutes) and a brief cab ride, we checked into our hotel, The Study at Yale, which we’d strongly recommend. It’s a short walk from the New Haven Green and is located right in the heart of Yale’s campus, so not only are you just a short jaunt from all of Yale’s theaters and museums (including its legendary Yale University Art Gallery), your hotel room might also provide a spectacular view of the campus and its Federal-style architecture. The hotel is sleek and modern, our room was bright and cozy, and the hotel’s restaurant, Heirloom, is a favorite among locals and visitors alike (more on that later).

If you have a free afternoon, just walking around Yale University’s campus and New Haven Green provides ample opportunity for distraction, but there are a few things you shouldn’t miss: the Art Gallery (which is home to more than 200,000 objects d’art), the Louis Khan-designed Yale Center for British Art, which is home to the largest collection of British art outside the U.K., and the famed Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library, which is home to an astonishing array of old books (including the mysterious Voynich Manuscript, which has never been deciphered).

After all that walking around, you’re going to get hungry, and if you’re in the mood for pizza, you’ve come to the right place. If you’re not familiar with New Haven-style pizza, it’s absolutely worth discovering if you consider yourself a pizza lover. And New Haven, with its large Italian population, is home to some of the country’s most legendary pizzerias, many of which date back to the 1920s and ‘30s. New Haven-style pizza is fired in a coal oven, and it typically has a thin, crisp, and chewy crust, a slightly oblong shape, and some amount of charring along the outside. It’s also unique in that a “plain” pie is only topped with tomato sauce, oregano, and a little pecorino romano — mozzarella cheese is considered a topping, and it needs to be requested.

The highlight of our visit was the opportunity to visit four legendary pizzerias — Frank Pepe, Sally’s Apizza, Modern Apizza, and the newer BAR — all in one afternoon, with Taste of New Haven’s Colin M. Caplan as our guide. Caplan is perhaps the country’s foremost authority on all things New Haven pizza (known around these parts as “apizza,” pronounced “ah-BEETZ”), as he’s literally written the book on New Haven Pizza and its storied history (you can buy a copy here).

We started at Frank Pepe, which opened here in 1925 and is widely credited with inventing New Haven-style pizza as we know it. (Not entirely coincidentally, it’s home to The Daily Meal’s pick for the best pizza in America, its signature white clam pie.) There are today 10 locations, but it all started right here, and many foodies consider a visit to Pepe’s a required culinary pilgrimage. If the concept of a mozzarella-free pie sounds weird to you, order the “plain” pie here, and the combination of the crisp, chewy crust, the slight char, the high-quality sauce (made with tomatoes delivered in Pepe-branded cans) and a sprinkle of pecorino will be a total paradigm-changer for you. You also owe it to yourself to order the famous white clam pie, which is topped simply with garlic, oregano, olive oil, grated pecorino, and freshly-shucked clams (and bacon if you’re feeling extra). It’s a masterpiece.

Up next, we visited BAR, which also happens to be one of the best bars in New Haven, serving a great assortment of beers (brewed in-house) in a fun and lively space. BAR’s pizzas are cooked in a brick oven, slightly less oblong than the competition, slightly less charred, and available with a wide array of toppings including oven-roasted hot peppers, roast chicken, shrimp and eggs. The mozzarella pie was fantastic, and the pepperoni was solid, but there’s one pizza that put this place on the map, and it’s a must-order: mashed potato and bacon. The crust gets a thin layer of creamy, garlicky mashed potatoes and a topping of crumbled bacon and fresh herbs; there’s nothing else quite like it, and it pairs perfectly with a house-brewed beer.

Up next, the legendary Sally’s Apizza. Sally’s was founded in 1938 by Frank Pepe’s sister, Filomena Pepe Consiglio, who named if after her son, Sal (who in turn ran the restaurant until his death in 1989). The pizza here will be familiar to you if you’ve been to Pepe’s: brick oven, slightly oblong, slightly charred. The plain, mozzarella, and pepperoni pies were all evenly cooked with a crisp, chewy crust and just the right amount of topping, and a real sleeper hit was the potato and onion pie, both sliced impossibly thin and artfully arranged from end to end. It was honestly one of the best pizzas I’ve ever tasted, and that combined with the masterful preparation of the other pies made Sally’s my personal favorite apizza of the day (It was Sinatra’s favorite, as well).

With whatever stomach space remained rapidly dwindling, we made it to our last stop of the day: Modern Apizza. This was actually founded in 1934, even though it looks a lot newer than that (it resembles a traditional, newish Italian restaurant a lot more than the others do), and along with Pepe’s and Sally’s it forms what’s commonly referred to as the “Holy Trinity” of New Haven pizzerias. Pizzas here are fired in an oil-fueled brick oven (one of the last remaining examples in America, in fact), and as opposed to the light and crispy crusts of the competition, these pies were slightly heavier and wetter, and were the only ones of the bunch to have a sprinkling of cornmeal on the bottom. Both the plain and mozzarella were on-point if a little soggy (which isn’t a dig at all), and we were fans of the eggplant pie, which is topped with thin strips of fried eggplant. If you’re a fan of pizzas with lots of toppings, don’t miss the Italian Bomb, topped with sausage, bacon, pepperoni, mushrooms, onion, peppers, and garlic.

There should be one more stop on your New Haven food tour (after you’re regained your appetite, obviously): Louis Lunch, widely regarded as the birthplace of the hamburger. Founded as a tiny lunch wagon in 1895 and today only slightly larger than that, the diminutive restaurant (which founder Louis Lassen upgraded to in 1917) is perpetually crowded with pilgrims in search of the original burger, which (as legend has it) was invented by Lassen in 1900. The burgers served here are cooked in unique upright broilers (the same exact ones used by Lassen) and served on white toast, with cheese spread and sliced onions as the only optional toppings. Eating here is like stepping back in time, and it’s still run by the Lassen family.

Oh, and as for the burger? It’s exceptionally good: The beef is high-quality, fresh-ground in house daily, and formed into 6-ounce pucks, and eating it with just a slice of onion on toast really allows it to shine. The only rule? No ketchup!

Obviously, more restaurants have opened in New Haven since the 1930s, so if you’re looking for something other than pizza or a burger you’re in luck. Heirloom, the restaurant inside the Study at Yale (above), is one of the city’s best fine-dining restaurants, and is spacious and comfortable with floor-to-ceiling windows that overlook Chapel Street. The seasonally-driven menu is a real crowd-pleaser, with appetizers including warm local ricotta with thyme, truffle oil, and toast; a jar of whipped chicken liver pate with bacon jam; baked Connecticut clams; and roast octopus. Entrees include lamb ragù with house-made penne, seared Maine scallops with caramelized spaghetti squash, bouillabaisse, a grass-fed burger, and filet mignon. We really enjoyed our meal there; service was professional and knowledgeable, and the dining room has a really buzzy energy, especially around the bar area. It also serves breakfast, brunch, and lunch.

Another dinner option is Zinc, which is located right on New Haven Green and has been a local favorite since 1999. They’re sourcing ingredients from local farms and purveyors, and they’re turning them into creative New American dishes with a sprinkling of that oh-so-1999 trend, Asian fusion. Apps include a house-cured gravlax and sticky rice roll, Korean barbecue pork belly, and carrot and smoked cheddar fondue; and entrees include pork carnitas aji verde, ricotta gnocchi with sage brown butter and port-soaked figs, and Scottish salmon with risotto and roasted beets. Our meal there unfortunately had a couple issues — grilled rib-eye steak ordered medium-rare was served on the bloody side of rare, and we were seriously disappointed with the restaurant’s supposedly signature appetizer, duck nachos, which were essentially wonton chips doused in mayo and sour cream and topped with a heavy handful of microgreens; whatever scraps of duck were present were overcooked, flavorless pebbles (you can see one towards the bottom of the plate above). The salmon was nicely cooked, though, and honestly the best part of the meal were desserts from pastry chef Alba Estenoz: a pear perfectly poached in red wine and topped with homemade ice cream, and a multilayered “cake” of chocolate, rum, and caramel mousses served with a shot of caramel milk on the side. Both were spectacular, and worthy of a visit in their own right.

Another popular fine-dining destination is John Davenport’s, located on the top floor of the Omni Hotel on New Haven Green. We stopped in for a Saturday morning breakfast, and had a dizzying array of dishes to choose from — omelets, three Benedicts (traditional, smoked salmon, or lobster), smoked salmon platter, pancakes, waffles, French toast, corned beef hash, avocado toast — and a whole breakfast buffet! We settled on the lobster eggs Benedict and a Belgian waffle with strawberries and Vermont maple syrup. Both were expertly prepared — the lobster was fresh and nicely cooked, the hollandaise was perfectly tart and creamy, and the waffle was light and crisp.

Other standout restaurants in New Haven include Claire’s Corner Copia, serving healthy vegetarian fare since 1975; chef John Brennan’s Olives and Oil, serving creative Italian fare and top-notch cocktails in a cool and modern setting; Union League Café, a super high-end French restaurant; and Consiglio’s, an old-school red-sauce joint.

The cocktail scene in New Haven is also very strong. Ordinary is nestled into a bar room dating from 1910, inside a former hotel (the Taft) that can trace its roots to a colonial-era tavern. The bar room itself, and the back room, are covered in old wood, and it’s honestly one of the most beautiful, coziest bars I’ve ever imbibed in. The cocktails are creative and crafted with an eye for flavor and balance (they run the gamut from classic — like the Bee’s Knees to modern — like the Lawnmower Man (with cachaça, Suze, citrus, green juice, house celery bitters, and lemon verbena air) — and the punch bowls are parties unto themselves. Also worth visiting is Anchor Spa, a classic dive-turned classy cocktail bar; and Elm City Social, chef John Brennan’s first project, a fun and laid-back nightly party that also serves a killer lunch and dinner menu with something for everyone. Another ideal post-dinner retreat is Firehouse 12, a sleek and swanky cocktail bar and lounge that’s also home to a recording studio-grade music venue that plays host to mostly jazz musicians.

New Haven is a beautiful city, the perfect destination for an autumn retreat. Yale lends it a youthful energy, an influx of mixologists and chefs are revitalizing the dining and cocktail scene, it has a walkable and historic downtown, and it has some of the best pizza on Earth. It’s an ideal small city, and if you decide to spend a weekend taking it in, you won’t regret it.

The visit that was the subject of this review was hosted by Visit New Haven.

New Haven

Before I moved to Boston, I constantly got my New England states mixed up. I mean, Vermont and New Hampshire are basically mirror/flipped images of each other. And I bet most West Coasters don't even believe in any states East of New York. (just kidding)

Ever since moving here I've made it a point to explore as much as possible. Inclusive of that was the Constitution state we refer to as Connecticut.

So I hopped on a Megabus for a 3 hour ride to New Haven. I went in with zero knowledge of the city or state but thankfully my old high school friend is living there for grad school and was able to show me around.

First off, I had no idea that New Haven was considered somewhat of a sketchy city. My naive response to seeing security escort cars was "But...Yale is here!" and sure enough, a Google search of "Why is New Haven..." yielded "so ghetto" as the first result. Well then.

Aside from having to be extra cautious and more aware of our surroundings, I actually really enjoyed the city. We started off with a quick tour of Yale University. Sitting as the third oldest higher education institution, it still ranks as one of the top 3 universities in the US today. At this point I should just make it a goal of mine to see all the Ivy League schools as I have already visited Harvard, Columbia, and UPenn.

This might be an unpopular opinion but I actually liked Yale the most in terms of a variety of architecture. With the recent snow on the campus, it gave off a very strong Harry Potter vibe with its old chandeliers, arched doorways, and exposed brick.

Some of the major buildings I saw were the Sterling Memorial Library with the large study rooms and tall arched windows. We also stopped by the newly reopened Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library. This was my favorite part. Imagine Belle from Beauty and the Beast when she's gifted an entire library. Except that you can't actually touch any of these books. Shelves were stacked ceiling-high with a bunch of rare books kept perfectly at a specific temperature and color coded. One of the oldest works, the Gutenberg Bible, was shown in a display case. It was really cool.

For the rest of the day we decided to hit up a couple breweries. The first one was New England Brewing Company. It's a small little space with some standing room for sampling beers but they don't have a liquor license so you can't actually buy pints to drink on the premises. We sampled all of them and I bought a mini growler to take home. Fun note: in Connecticut, you're allowed to fill any growler you want, not just the ones the brewery provides. This seems much more environmentally friendly...ahemMASSACHUSETTS.

The next stop was a bit out of the way. Half an hour away is a middle-of-nowhere town called Oxford. Here we went to a brewery called OEC. What does it stand for? I still can't remember. Something about eccentric brewers. And this place lived up to that name I suppose. They specialize in mostly saisons and sour or smoky beers. There's a strong German influence in their tasting room and label designs and their growler filling station was pretty cool. We opted to share a flight of all their sour beers, which was a total of 8. My favorites were Albus and Tempus, as they were both fairly tart but delicious.

By the time we were done, we were all craving some food. So we drove back to New Haven to try some New Haven-style pizza. In the little Italy area of Wooster Square, we went to one of the most popular places: Frank Pepe's Pizzeria Napoletana. After a surprisingly short wait (I've heard it can get pretty long), we were seated and immediately noticed the huge trays of pizza sitting on tables. I ordered a Foxon Park soda (white birch flavor, which is similar to root beer) and we opted to share a clam & bacon with white sauce pizza. New Haven style, referred to as "apizza," is generally a thin crust pizza that's slightly charred on the bottom and not as cheesy as your typical pizzas. It was so good that we almost finished a large between 3 people.

That night we decided to go see a show at the Yale Repertory theatre. It was a small play called Imogen Says Nothing and was influenced strongly by Shakespeare's "Much Ado About Nothing." I thought it was well produced and the acting was great but had a hard time following the story.

It was cold and snowing the next day but we walked over to the neighborhood brunch spot, The Pantry. They had a variety of omelettes, benedicts, and scrambles but are most known for their cinnamon bun pancakes. Super light, fluffy, and just a touch sweetness with the drizzle of frosting. Yum.

We spent the rest of the day at a pottery class in the undergraduate area of Yale but I had to take off early to catch my bus back, which took much longer than normal since we had to drive through the snow storm.

New Haven isn't the most exciting city but it's quaint and well worth a visit, even if just once.

The best pizza in America has no tomato sauce — or mozzarella

Picture a pizza in your mind, and you’ll probably conjure an image of a thin, round pie topped with marinara sauce, mozzarella cheese, and maybe some pepperoni. But even though that may be the most popular type of pizza, there are countless other styles and toppings out there — one of which is the best pizza in America.

The Best Pizza in Every State

Every year, we set out to rank the 101 best pizzas in the country, with some help from a survey taken by chefs, restaurant critics, bloggers, writers, and other pizza authorities. We’ve published this ranking since 2013, and nearly every year one pizza has risen to the top of the pack: the clam pie from the legendary Frank Pepe in New Haven, Connecticut.

Frank Pepe Pizzeria Napoletana opened in 1925, and there are now seven locations around Connecticut, one in Yonkers, New York, one in Rhode Island, and one near Boston; all are operated by Pepe’s 10 great-grandchildren, and all use original recipes to make their pizza. New Haven-style pizza is fired in a coal oven, and it typically has a thin, crisp, and chewy crust, a slightly oblong shape, and some amount of charring along the outside. Pepe’s, along with Sally’s Apizza and Modern Apizza are considered the “Holy Trinity” of New Haven pizzerias, but Pepe’s is the most famous and, according to many, the best (although there’s always going to be debate among locals).

Frank Pepe’s “plain” pie (topped with just tomato sauce, garlic, and grated Parmesan) is just about perfect (that’s right; in New Haven, cheese is considered a topping and has to be specifically requested), but it’s the clam pie that’s a Northeastern pizza genre unto its own, and Pepe’s is where it originated, and where it’s best.

To make this legendary pizza, a round of dough is topped with freshly shucked, briny littleneck clams, an intense dose of garlic, olive oil, oregano, and grated Parmigiano-Reggiano — and that’s all. It's a combination that makes this pizza the best in America, as well as one of the most iconic dishes in America.

Unmissable Destinations in Connecticut | Traveldudes.org

Connecticut is often overshadowed by the nearby tourist meccas of Boston and NYC.

While Connecticut doesn’t have as “flashy” tourist draws as bordering New York and Massachusetts, it does have plenty of wonderful historical attractions, a happening food scene, and plenty of New England natural beauty worthy of exploration.

In this article, we’ll share a few of the top sites you should seriously consider visiting the next time you’re in the Constitution State.

Interesting Places to Visit in Connecticut

Yale University

Without a doubt, the most famous institution in Connecticut is Yale University. Located in the southern port city of New Haven, Yale is the third oldest university in the nation.

Just strolling around Yale’s old campus, you’re sure to be impressed by the “Harry Potter-like” Gothic architecture. The must-see museum on Yale’s campus is the Peabody Museum of Natural History.

This museum, which houses the impressive Age of Reptiles mural, is so famous that it was even featured in a Simpsons episode! A few other museums you can explore free of charge include the Yale Center for British Art and the Yale University Art Gallery.

You can also walk into the stunning Sterling Memorial Library or check out if there are any special exhibits at the Beineke Rare Books Library. There are always live music and drama performances going on around Yale’s campus, so be sure to do your research online before you visit this wonderful campus.

Stay in New Haven for Good Eats

After you’re done exploring Yale’s campus, it’s time to get your foodie on. There are dozens of world-class pizza restaurants in this city, but some of the most famous include Modern Apizza, Sally’s Apizza, and Frank Pepe Pizzeria Napolentana.

Also, be sure to visit the historic hamburger shack Louis’ Lunch on Crown Street. Some food critics claim the hamburger was invented at Louis’ Lunch way back in 1895.

A Few Sailing Ideas in Connecticut

When people think of New England, they often think of picturesque lighthouses, sandy beaches, and sailing. Luckily for you, there are many great sailing locations throughout the Nutmeg State.

The absolute best location for sailing, however, is at the Mystic Seaport in Groton. The tourist-friendly city of Mystic offers numerous sailing programs for sailors of all ages and skill levels. After your sailing adventure is complete, explore the first-rate Mystic Aquarium, the huge wooden Charles W. Morgan ship, and the Olde Mistick Village.

If you don’t feel like exploring Mystic for whatever reason, perhaps you’d like to take a trip down the Connecticut River. The best place to get on the Connecticut River is in the town of Glastonbury. Visit a boating dealer like Petzold’s Marine Center if you’d like to get a boat for your sailing trip.

Gillette Castle State Park

This East Haddam mansion, which was built to resemble a medieval castle, was actually designed by the actor William Hooker Gillette in the late 1910s.

Mystery fans might already know that William Hooker Gillette was famous for his portrayal of Detective Sherlock Holmes. In addition to touring this exceptional castle and learning about Gillette’s life, guests can roam around the many wooded areas in this 184-acre park. This is an exceptional place to bring your entire family on a warm day and enjoy a picnic.

Connecticut: Still Revolutionary

As you can see, Connecticut isn’t as boring as you might expect. We didn’t even touch on some of the other wonderful tourist draws here like Sleeping Giant Park, Roseland Cottage, and Mark Twain’s House. Anyone who loves nature, food, or New England culture will love a trip to Connecticut. So what are you waiting for? Connecticut beckons!

How To Celebrate These Esoteric Holidays in Style!

Today is June 13th, 2017. Alternatively, today is also Sewing Machine Day. Well, actually, it’s more like half of Sewing Machine Day, as we’ll also celebrate these blessed inventions again in September before autumn rolls around. How are you planning on celebrating? Throwing a wild pair of fun socks together? Maybe stitching together a nice blanket for when the weather turns? What’s that? You’ve never actually heard of Sewing Machine Day?

Don’t feel too bad about that—it’s certainly one of the more esoteric celebratory days we honor every year in this country. And now that you’ve read this, you at least can crush your trivia night when this question comes up. Oh also, if you are actually into trivia, remember to honor your favorite pastime on January 4th. It is, after all, National Trivia Day.

But how did we get here? Why do we honor “Monkey Around Day” in June (coming up tomorrow, actually), but “King Tut Day” in November? To answer that question, we need to dive into a bit of Congressional history.

Make sure to take notes, though—you’ll need to remember all this for your annual National Trivia Day party!

It’s National Garlic Day—But Why?

Right after we pay our taxes, we honor our health by celebrating National Garlic Day. Seriously, check it out. As this annual celebration rolled around in 2017, NPR host David Greene asked a fairly reasonable question—why garlic, why now, and why any of this?

According to his co-host Kenny Malone, this all got started a few decades ago. Back in the 1980s, Congress was a bit of a “holiday factory” when it came to commemorating random days of the year with even more random causes and notes. The heyday of production for the holiday factory came during the 1985-86 congressional session. At this point, Congress was so enamored with naming holidays that 1 in every 3 laws passed focused on creating a day or week of one kind or another. National Air Traffic Control Day, National Bowling Week, or even Real Jewelry Month—if there was a subject and a small constituent that cared about it, odds are Congress gave it a day at some point.

But at a certain point, the serious people in the room got together and decided that it was a bit beneath the United States Congress to focus a third of their legislative priorities on creating commemorative days for the populace to celebrate. Chase’s Calendar of Events filled the vacuum created by Congressional departure.

Today, editor-in-chief Holly McGuire receives crowdsourced suggestions for commemorative days. She takes the best new concepts and incorporates them into the Chase Calendar of Events. Their annual book boasts “12,500 holidays, historical milestones, famous birthdays, festivals, sporting events and much more.” For the 2017 edition, Chase’s has already created:

Be Kind to Food Servers Month

Clean Up Your Computer Month

Credit Education Month

Bathroom Reading Month

Update Your Resume Month

So with all of that commemorative history in mind, which upcoming holidays should you be focusing on (that you have no idea currently exist)?

Men Make Dinner Day: First Thursday in November

The good news? Men have been getting better at handling their fair share of the cooking responsibilities. The bad news? Women still cook over 50% more than men do—7.6 hours per week for women, compared to 5 hours of week per men.

Men Make Dinner Day is here to change that. Keep in mind, if you are one of those progressive men who takes pride in his work in the kitchen, this holiday is not for you. But if you’re one of the men still lost in the wilderness of cutting boards and julienned carrots, this is your time to shine.

Remember, though—there are rules. According to the official website of Men Make Dinner Day:

National Men Make Dinner Day is always celebrated on the first Thursday of each November.

Man agrees to participate in National Men Make Dinner day. Bonus points if he does so without mentioning a future “boy’s night out” as part of the deal.

Man, without outside help, chooses a recipe from any source. He can choose a recipe from cookbooks or other sources within the home, but he gets extra credit if he finds a unique and new recipe to play with.

The primary course must incorporate a minimum of 4 ingredients and require more heavy-duty cooking utensils than a simple fork.

Man must shop for all required ingredients.

Man organizes all the required ingredients on the kitchen counter in the order that they will be required. Again—no outside help is permitted at this stage.

Man is allowed to listen to the radio, music, or his favorite podcasts while cooking, but he is not allowed within 30 feet of the television remote throughout the entire process.

After understanding the recipe and acquiring the ingredients, man begins the cooking process. Extra credit for donning a witty apron at this stage.

Man must adhere to “clean as you go” rule—after he is finished using a utensil in the cooking process, it gets cleaned and returned to its rightful home in the kitchen.

Man sets table, lights candles, and pours beverages. No condiment containers are allowed on the table—all must be apportioned into appropriate dishes beforehand.

Significant other and potential family members dig in to enjoy his wares. While pictures are allowed at this stage, man is allotted a firm cap on 3 instances of gloating about his prepared meal.

Following the meal, man takes care of clearing the table, washing the dishes, and brewing any coffee or desserts his guests prefer. After—and only after—all these stages are completed, he is returned TV remote privileges.

National Pepperoni Pizza Day: September 20

When Gennaro Lombardi applied for his first license to make and sell an arcane Italian dish called “pizza” in 1905, he didn’t envision creating a national culinary phenomenon. But after the immediate success of “Joe’s Tomato Pies” became apparent in 1912, several other pizzerias were founded in communities of Italian immigrants—Anthony Pero in Coney Island, Frank Pepe in New Haven, and John Sasso in Greenwich Village highlight the early movers in this space.

Over a century later, pizza is devoured by Americans of all walks of life. In particular, pepperoni pizza remains king as it is preferred by 36% of Americans. Over 3 billion pizzas are sold each year in the United States, with Super Bowl Sunday representing more demand than any other day of the year. Yet the Super Bowl comes but once a year, and we could all use a reason to incorporate more pizza into our lives. When the fall rolls around in September, remember your excuse and indulge in some pepperoni!

Ear Muff Day: March 13

Let’s be real—March is a bit of a drag. Particularly if you live on the East Coast, this is the time that it always seems like spring should arrive at, yet consistently fails to do so. Darn groundhog.

For many of us, this is a time when we look in the closets and dream about the day we can switch over those sweaters and long johns for our shorts and polo shirts. Yet Chester Greenwood knew better. Back in 1877, Chester had grown tired of the earaches and incessant pain resulting from the brutal northeast winters. As such, he put patented the “Champion Ear Protector” on March 13 to guard against such disturbances. His invention carried the moniker of “ear muffler,” which was eventually whittled down to the “ear muff” we know and love today. If you’re looking to keep your sensitive ears warm without messing up that hair, consider honoring Chester next March 13!

National Underwear Day: August 5

The 13th Century wasn’t the kindest of times for human history. The Crusades were revving up, the Mongol Empire was clashing with Russian principalities, and the Song dynasty came to a bitter end. Fortunately for us, however, our ancestors did find time in this period to invent underwear. Their iteration of leather loincloths may not be as appealing as a nice pair of boxer briefs sounds today, but we still owe them a debt of gratitude for this novel invention.

Freshpair, a burgeoning Internet company, recognized this debt when they founded National Underwear Day on August 5th, 2003. Each year the company stages a massive “underwear show” in New York City to celebrate the centuries that have led us to our current state of underwear-ness. So the next time August 5th rolls around, open that top drawer of the dresser up and acknowledge that it may be time to honor our 13th Century ancestors with a new pair or two.

Festival of Sleep Day: January 3

Sleep is important. Really important, actually. According to the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, sleep plays a considerably vital role in our health and well-being. The benefits of a good night of sleep include:

Healthy brain functioning

Emotional well-being

Physical health

Daytime performance and safety

January 3rd is an ideal day to recognize the importance of sleep. After all, it’s immediately following the holidays, so our annual feasts of turkey and red wine are still flowing through our collective bloodstream. Take some time after your holiday binge to get a full 8 hours, a cat nap, or a quick Costanza-esque snooze under your desk at work. Your body and mind will thank you for it.

How to Celebrate?

This much is clear: we have an inordinate amount of celebrations to carry out each year on the calendar. While we may not have the ability (or desire, in some cases) to acknowledge and honor each and every one of these esoteric holidays, they represent novel opportunities to send and receive notes and gift cards to friends and loved ones. After all, who wouldn’t love to get a Whole Foods gift card for Bittersweet Chocolate Day, or maybe a Lids gift card for National Hat Day?

The evidence shows that Americans overwhelmingly prefer gift cards as their chosen present, and these crazy holidays represent a really fun way to tell your recipient that you’re thinking about them in a lighthearted manner. Unfortunately, however, a massive amount of our annual gift cards goes to waste—nearly a billion dollars of gift card balances go unused every single year!

At EJ Gift Cards, we think that’s absurd. Why should you lose the value on that Trader Joe’s gift card just because you didn’t see anything you wanted for National Cheese Day there? Okay, poor example—there’s always good cheese at Trader Joe’s to celebrate that day.

But the point remains; wasted gift card balances are a slap in the face to our gift givers and receivers. We’re here to make sure none of that humor and generosity gets wasted. Our model works in three simple steps:

Let us know what merchant your card is for.

Tell us how much value is left on the card.

Instantaneously see our offer to buy that card from you and decide what you’d like to do.

It’s an easy model with no pressure from start to finish. You can choose to sell that gift card to us, or perhaps hold onto it for later use. Either way, we just want to make sure those gift cards don’t go to waste and that your National Kazoo Day celebration wasn’t all for naught. The funds will be sent your way via paypal and you can decide how best to spend them. Heck, maybe even just reinvest them in a Barnes & Noble gift card for National Children’s Book Day (April 2nd will be here before you know it)!

So give us a try and see if you can sell your gift card and get some quick cash. After all, you may need to replenish the wallet for some roses for Mother-In-Law Day—don’t forget, that’s the fourth Sunday in October!
