An Empire State of Sandwich
Yall all know by know that I’m a born Southerner, and I like it that way. So it is always with a little trepidation that I order the Yankee Club at the Young Ave. Deli. You know what I mean? Lot of good people and stuff up in NYC, but I’ll stick to ol’ M-Town, [...]

Quick bites: A good looking lunch
My brother and his nice lady friend made a visit to the Bluff City recently, so I scooted along with them for a Friday Funday lunch at the Beauty Shop. Disclaimer: My coworkers were sitting at a table on the patio, while I was inside with the fam. Translation: There is either something in the [...]
Totally Sweet (Grass)!
What’s the word?
