Gov. Jodi Rell, at Pizzeria Tomorrow in Newington, Will Order a Pie to Set Tone for End of Her Term: Lame Duck With Buffalo Mozz

At 3 p.m. tomorrow the governor will kick off the third annual “Connecticut Restaurant Week” at Joey’s Garlic Pizzeria, 150 Kitts Lane, in the Shaw’s Plaza off the Berlin Turnpike in Newington. The Blogster hopes the governor orders a lame-duck pizza symbolic of her status, but imagines she’ll instead sample the fresh tomato and mozzarella pie. Below are notes on the week:
