| Notes: | A while back I wrote a restaurant review of the Old Post Office,
a long way from the west coast but a memorable enough meal to warrant trying to describe. I got a letter from Ma yesterday with a copy of their grits recipe. Turns out dad snuck back and bought her a bag of the grits with the recipe. Pretty simple, and rich. Be sure accompany with wine and to follow up with a Chocolate desert to balance out the health effects. :) Probably best with their grind of grits, but what the hey. Without further introduction... |
