When I was a kid, we had fried chicken on Sundays. It was just what everyone did. We got up early, went to church, and then we all headed to Grandma’s house for Sunday dinner. All the adult women brought food with them or spent time in the kitchen preparing a big meal for the whole family. While dinner was cooking, us kids would play outside or, if it was raining, we would run around in the basement.
Sunday dinner was usually the best fried chicken you would ever taste, along with home made mashed potatoes and a variety of fresh vegetables and salads. I loved dessert, too. It was often a big slice of pie, but sometimes we would have thenmost wonderful cakes made from scratch.
Ahh. Those were the days of great food and family time.

Tonight the David Letterman show is having Alan Jackson as the musical guest. I have to say that this show offers a great variety of musical artists. They have everyone from rap to rock to county and all kinds of people even sit in with the band every once in a while.
Looking forward to hearing an Alan Jackson song – wonder what he;s going to play?

Think I’ll head down to the library today and pick out a few good books. The weather is going to be pretty crappy these next couple of weeks. There is nothing on TV but reruns and the same old crap, so I will spend the little bit of leisure time that I have expanding my mind with literature. I used to buy books, but eventually realized that I don’t read them more than once and it is silly to buy a lot of things that just end up taking space and collecting dust. So I have a library card and try to use it a few times each year. It makes more sense.
