I tried the Loaded Croissant – bacon, egg, and cheese – at Memphis Chess Club yesterday. Excellent flavor and it didn’t fall apart the way a lot of breakfast sandwiches do. I’m told it’s their best-selling menu item. I put mustard on my loaded croissant but sriracha would also be an option.
McDonald’s is bringing back fried apple pies. Those things burned my mouth and tasted like ass. But, hey, nostalgia.
What’s going on with me: I’m reading a book by a non-physical collection of entities who call themself Abraham. I won a $35 gift certificate at Saucer trivia last night, thanks to a “presidents” round.
Back tomorrow with more news.
