  1. Great photo, Murrays. Saving it to hard drive as a keepsake!

  2. I can't tell, is the white yarn "cheese" oozing off the side meant to signify Artichoke's pies are too gooey and gloppy, and therefore not real NYC pizza?

    Nice artistic tribute nonetheless.

  3. That's called "yarn bombing." Google it for lots of images.

  4. The yarn is by an artist named London Kaye. She's dope.
