southern food

Today Mikie and I went to Main Street Market Cafe for lunch. It was nice catching up, and I was delighted to find such healthy (i.e. not dripping with grease) and delicious Southern cuisine. Until today, I thought the 2 were mutually exclusive.

Later in the afternoon I went along with my dad to a soup kitchen, which he's been doing semi-monthly. I was moved to find that there is something that unites Southern people of all ages, shapes, and socio-economic backgrounds-- and it's their love of sweet iced tea =P. Also, I think I will have to steal the recipe for hashbrown casserole.
