2441

You can get plate-sized
pancakes here, if you’re there
for breakfast, of course.

Many joints like this
Have the good sense
To only be open
For breakfast.

  Well, it IS the most important meal of the day.
  
  Our waitress gave us specific pancake instructions – the pancakes were as big as the plate, and she said to cut a hole in the middle of them, and pour the syrup in the hole, which would keep the syrup from running into our laps. Also, she called us “hon.”

    In Macon, Georgia, a waitress called me darlin’. The food was excellent.

    Is there a connection between “darlin'” and “hon” and “sweetie” and how good the food is? We should probably do some serious research on it. I’ll start looking for grant funding…
