View of my C-Barrel table
This all went down over in Piqua at the C-Barrel right next to La Quinta where I was staying.
Let me tell you what this all about. Right here is what we got. We got ourselves some of that catfish, some of that fried okra, some of that sweet potato casserole. Them greens got shredded hamhock in there the way I like. Two them corn pone muffin with butter. And I know all y'all's mouths must be watering. Don't worry, they don't call it Cracka Barrel fo nothing, they lets crackas in all the time and crackas work there and eat there.
Pauli, I've been meaning to comment on this, but i keep getting sucked into the Dreher Threads. But, then again, this also is a Dreher Thread, isn't it? :D
ReplyDeleteAnyway, this cracked me up...not least because I doubt Dreher would be caught dead in a Cracker Barrel. As for me and my house, we always eat at Cracker Barrel when we're on the road, because we know we can get decent breakfasty stuff there, and it tastes dependably the same, whether you're in South Carolina or Pennsylvania or wherever. And there's all that cute kitschy Americana, too. Not to mention the rocking chairs.
