I had to dig around a while but I found it!

"Jul 25 2005, 06:00 PM

In doing a Google search: Pizza My Heart, I found a pizza chain in the bay area with the same name that is selling T shirts with their logo and name on it. They have sold something like a 1/4 million T shirts to date."

Thought it had been mentioned before.

Do know what funny a year ago today July 24th Pizza My Heart aired on ABC family!

Crystaline

It's been a year already?! Whoa. Time sure can fly.

Mr G

Yep... we are coming up on 1 year since BFF screening of WDWE - where I met Shiri the first time (as well as Nor'east Applesaucers).

Before I met Shiri I was "just a fan" of her movies and her characters but after meeting her... I became a fan of Shiri the person. She was so nice. Five minutes after joining our group outside the theater Shiri felt like a friend. She fit right in with all of us.

I think that if Shiri had been the kind of celebrity that you read about... haughty.. aloof.. I would have lost interest in being a fan. Instead, she is warm, friendly, down to earth nice... heck I would be a fan of hers if she never made a single movie.

Roswell 10/2/00

Oh yes I found that info out a few months ago I was dying. Very cool there is an actually pizza place kind of like the movie with their very own Pizza Chain.

Oh yes Boston I was looking through those photos today. Such wonderful memories. It was an amazing weekend and I had a blast with everyone including Shiri. Shiri was the first actress I ever met. So it was very exciting for me! It was so wonderful to finally meet her in person she is very sweet and kind I wish her nothing but the best in life.

I think it is funny how When Do We Eat comes out a month before the one year anniversary of when we all saw it in Boston and and what is really funny is that we actually found a Pizza my Heart Pizza box at New York pizza in Boston right down the street from where the theater.

Kristen was the one who spotted it. Her reaction was priceless when all of the sudden she was really excited and was like "Look I see Shiri" everyone in the Pizza place thought we were nuts!

So we knew Seeing the Pizza My Heart pizza box was a sign we would meet Shiri.

We even tried to get the Pizza My Heart Pizza Box but no such luck the Pizza Guy behind the counter had no idea why we wanted the box and didn't even know who Shiri Appleby was when we told him that the Pizza box was from her movie. It was classic trying to get it from him However no such luck.

It was funny when we saw Shiri we even told her about seeing the Pizza My Heart Pizza box and showed her the photo of it and told her she should stop by the Pizza place. She was laughing at the photo and told us how her family has tons of those boxes laying around their house.

Here is the photo of the Pizza My Heart Pizza Box that we saw in Boston at New York Pizza our sign telling us that we would meet the lovely Miss Shiri Appleby.



Over all The 2005 Boston Film Festival was a great weekend meeting new friends, touring Boston, seeing good movies, seeing old friends, creating new memories, and making dreams come true.

Hope all is well.

Love,
Erin

Don't know if anyone has noticed, but if you go to the abc family website you can watch certain shows and movies for free. The movie of the month for Sept. is "Pizza My Heart"!

Hope that you have more success than I have. I can't access it on my computer and I live in the UK so this was my one chance to see it

After meeting Shiri for the first time at the Reed Fish premier I also had the same reaction. She is the complete opposite of what I thought a celebrity was like. It also felt like as if we known each other for years. I guess some of that has to do with the fact that she does not consider herself to be a celebrity and she her self gets star stuck plus the big thing is how she was raised. And then if you top it off with her natural beauty it makes for one killer combination.

I find that to be ironic being we are coming up to the one year anniversay of meeting Shiri for the first time on September 10,2005 at the Boston Film Festival to see her movie When Do We Eat and we saw a Pizza My Heart Pizza box at New York Pizza in Boston the night before. It was our sign that we would meet her. Such a wonderful weekend! I had a Blast!!

EARLBNY

I find it ironic that ther would be a Pizza place in Boston called New york Pizza?

I have actually seen part of this movie. It wasn't too bad. My sister liked it a lot.
