As always on Monday, I went to Pint Nite at the Saucer, where I met my friends Clay and Lee.\u00a0 I started at the bar, but comfy couches and chairs came open, and we decided to relax.\u00a0 Lil’ Kim, realizing we were now in her section, came over, and said, “Paul, can I get you anything?”\u00a0 I realized I was in her section as well, and as I would do for any server who was kind, friendly and courteous, I started a tab with her.\u00a0 Since I’d only had one beer at the bar, I transferred it to Lil’ Kim.<\/p>\n

About 9 we decided we were hungry.\u00a0 Lee was celebrating a milestone at work, so we decided to go to Blues City Cafe to celebrate with ribs and steak.\u00a0 My order was the Memphis Strip.<\/p>\n

Glad I let Clay talk me into the steak fries, as opposed to the new potatoes.\u00a0 The fries were perfect for rubbing in the drippings from the steak.<\/p>\n

We finished up and were about to leave, when the server told us we had to stay.\u00a0 The manager had identified us as locals, and decided that we needed to try an apple dumpling for dessert.\u00a0 A few minutes later, it arrived at our table.<\/p>\n

I thought about texting the Nuh-Uh Girl and asking her if an apple dumpling showed up at her table the last time she ate at Blues City, but really, I was just too busy enjoying dessert to pick up the phone.<\/p>\n

A couple more beers at the Saucer and a great Monday night winded down.\u00a0 Good times with good friends.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
