Announcing the Twelve Days of Christmas Contest!

The Pizza by the Sea Twelve Days of Christmas Contest is here! Here is how it works: Send or bring us your family Christmas card, and we will display it on our walls as part of our Christmas decor. Starting on December 10th, we will randomly choose a card each day for 12 days. That family will win the prize of the day! (Think pizzas, dinners, lunches, t-shirts)

Winners will be posted daily on Facebook, so make sure you watch our page! If you are mailing a card to us, our address is as follows:

Pizza by the Sea
P.O. Box 4832
Seaside, FL 32459

We can't wait to see the Christmas cards from our fans around the country! And we are so excited to share some YUM with you this season!

Kids! We Need Help!

We need some pizza ornaments for our YUM tree to jazz it up a bit. And we thought that having kids make us some would be perfect! Can you help us?

Here are the guidelines:

1. The ornament has to be in the shape of a whole pizza or pizza slice.
2. It can be no bigger than about 4 inches in width (we want to fit a lot of ornaments on the little tree!)
3. We would like the child's name on it!
4. It would be very helpful if you included some sort of way to hang the ornament (ribbon or yarn would work fine).

Get creative! They can be made from tin can lids, oatmeal lids, cardboard, paper... you name it! Have the kids decorate their ornaments and bring them in to put on our tree. The tree will be up after Thanksgiving. Or, if you live far away, you can just mail it to us!

We will be posting pictures of the ornaments as they come in! We can't wait to see what the kids create ! (and keep in mind, they don't have to be masterpieces: we just want them to have fun!)

Thank you for helping us make our YUM Christmas tree look fabulous!

Alaqua Animal Refuge Benefit Day!

Our family loves animals...

{our son with our Black Lab, Pepper}



{Our 15 year old kitty}



{Our Princess bunny Ella}

All of our animals have been rescued from shelters, and we know how difficult it can be for these organizations to continue to care for these homeless animals as the number of them keeps rising.

We would like to encourage everyone to come out on Tuesday in support of Alaqua Animal Refuge, the local no-kill home for animals . You can check out their website here.

We will give 20% back to Alaqua for every ticket that says "Alaqua" when they check out! Such an easy way to make a big difference.

New Soup for You!

I don't know about you, but I love a good bowl of soup, especially when it's a bit chilly outside.
We have two new soups for you to try at PBTS: Baja Chicken Enchilada and Loaded Baked Potato.
MMM, mmm, mmm. They are both delicious.

Try them on their own, or with a salad, a breadstick, or even a slice of pizza at lunch! Other flavors we frequently offer include shrimp and corn chowder, tomato basil bisque, chili, and mushroom brie.

Enjoy!
