Hello Friday! Chelsea here.

It’s the last day of summer, my friends. And I think we all know the best way to celebrate just about anything: a pizza party. Okay, I’m sort of kidding. You don’t have to have a party, but I do think you should treat yourself to pizza for dinner. It was a long summer and you deserve to spend the last day of it having as much fun as possible. So skip the dishes, click the link below to find the perfect pizza place, and get ready to say “Hello, fall!”
