Mary's Pizza Shack

Mary's is just the pizza place in the town where I grew up.  We went there for soccer parties, graduations, after school, and hot breadsticks.  We embraced the pesto breadsticks when they appeared on the menu, and accepted the expansion of the brand as it moved outward, popping up along the highway and on billboards heading out of the county.
Now people have no reason to leave Sebastapol!
 When I went this time with a group of friends, we stopped in at the Mary's "on the square" for dinner.  There are a few portraits of Mary on the wall, as well as photos of the original space along Highway 12, where we all grew up grabbing pizzas with our families.  We all kinda know what to order, pretty much salads & pizzas, but a couple of us go for the spaghetti & meatballs, stepping out of the box.  We're grateful for leftover slices when our custom [garlic, onion, sausage, pepper & artichoke hearts(superfluous)] pizza has filled us up; we eat them the next afternoon on a car ride home.
The "Other Food" section- classic Mary's move.  Other people call them "Sides".
