The Good Guide: DOUGHvember Tuesdays

'Tis the season to carb load for a good cause (that's a thing, right?). Every Tuesday in November, Home Slice Pizza is opening its dine-in doors and serving up pizza, drinks, and good times - all to benefit some incredible charities in town. Grab a pizza, a sub, or even a salad if you dare, and Home Slice Pizza will donate a portion of sales to these nonprofits. If you're feeling lucky (or charitable) you can also purchase raffle tickets for a shot at winning a year's worth of free pizza.
