I’ll start this post with a dessert recommendation: Memphis Chess Club makes awesome chocolate chip brownies. Big ones, too.
You know, I was thinking this morning… the part of Madison Avenue that’s in the Downtown core is a coffee shop lover’s dream. Walking west from Fourth, you have
- Boycott Coffee
- Memphis Chess Club (which has a full coffee bar and you don’t need to be a club member to hang out there)
- The Cray Gander
- Humble Drip (just off Madison at 7 N. Main inside Sam’s eatery)
Cheers to the folks who did the South Main Pajama Pub Crawl, which led off at Bardog yesterday. I hope you had as much fun at your remaining stops as you had at your first one.

New troll!
I was given the troll a week ago Saturday, but I held off introducing him to my blog readers because I hadn’t thought of a name. He now has one: Tuscadero, because I’m taking him as a sign that happy days are right around the corner.
Possibly back with a quick post tomorrow, but in case I’m not, Merry Christmas.
It’s free to read this blog, but I gratefully accept tips!
