Tomorrow I get the opportunity to fly to Michigan to participate in Domino’s Pizza Blogger Day!
We get to tour the Domino’s World Resource Center. I’ll learn how to make a Domino’s pizza, get a tour of the home office – including the Test Kitchen- which is very rare! And we will hear from the Customer Care team and visit a newly redesigned Pizza Theater store!
We also get to visit the Domino’s Michigan Supply Chain Center where we will go on a tour and see fresh dough being made! Then, my favorite part, we go back to the World Resource Center for the Pizza Making Competition! The winner will go home with a coveted Golden Spoodle!
