The "You Know You're in the South" Edition--
You know you are in a restaurant in the South when hot sauce and peppers in vinegar sauce are on your table when you sit down. My daughter worked at a Cracker Barrel in PA for a bit and there, you had to ask for these items. I have yet to go in a Cracker Barrel down here so I wonder if it's being up North or if it's just a CB policy.
Onward to the meal planning!
This is what was planned.......
1. Sunday--Chicken Parm, Yellow Squash
2. Monday--Beef Pie
3. Tuesday--Riced Cauliflower, other Veggies and Beef Stir-fry
4. Wednesday--Trivia night at different place so no clue
5. Thursday--Applebee's Salad(late lunch)
6. Friday--Tempura Shrimp and Zuke, Spinach Soufflé, maybe Cole Slaw
