Tuesday update

I finally got around to trying one of the cinnamon rolls at Memphis Chess Club. DELICIOUS. Loaded with cinnamon and icing and just the right amount of chewiness. You have the option of having it heated, but I declined; I didn’t want any of that glorious icing to melt.

The chess club, by the way, has a beer license and has a good selection of Memphis beer in its cooler. Good place for people who don’t like bar environments to try local breweries’ products.

Doing Dry January? You don’t have to stop coming to Bardog. They have the following N/A options:

  • Orbit
  • Nowadays Mocktail
  • D9 High Rise
  • Heineken N/A

Penny’s Memphis Tigers rose two spots to 19th in the latest AP poll.

It’s National Old Rock Day.

Tickets to the Memphis Flyer’s Whiskey Warmer event are now on sale. It’s March 7 at The Kent in Uptown and benefits Volunteer Memphis.

Jimmy Butler wants out of Miami and the Grizzlies are a potential landing spot.

Snow/ice are still in the forecast for Friday.

Back tomorrow probably.

It’s free to read this blog, but I gratefully accept tips!
