Today was visitin' day. We went to check on Grandmother at the old folks home...and the parking lot was FULL!!! I actually had to do some AGRESSIVE driving to finally circle my way outta there and park at the Kroger's gas station, walk over, and then cut through the landscaping just to get into the old folks home as more folks were pouring in. Who knew?!? I mean this place was busier than the MALL where I had just come from. And when we finally got inside, the place was a hustling-bustling beehive with folks shucking and jivin' all over the place. Come to find out, Grandmother told us, lunch was about to be served (I swear it was 10:45 AM), and they were serving hot roast beef with gravy, biscuits, green beans, a salad, and fudge pie...ALL FOR $3!!! Now y'all, this is about the best kept secret in my little town. Grandmother even said, "They serve real country cooking here. This food has taste!" And from all the elbowing I had to do to get in there, I BELIEVE her. I'm making a reservation for next week.
Kinda makes you look forward to your turn at the old folks home.
