Upon a recent trip to Cracker Barrel for delectable evening breakfast excursion, I managed to wolf down an entire Sunrise Special. I’m talking EVERYTHING. For many, this is no amazing feat. But I am thin of a skeletal nature, and my stomach does not accommodate mass quantities of food very well. Usually when I eat at Cracker Barrel, I enjoy tasting a variety of different foods, but rarely do I finish it all.

During this meal, I killed off 3 scrambled eggs, sausage, bacon, sugar-cured ham, AMAZING golden-cheese hashbrowns, a bowl of cinnamon apples, a bowl of grits, two orange slices AND a country biscuit. I made it half-way through my second “half-and-half”, or “Arnold Palmer” as they’re called in the Souf.
Usually when I eat this much, I feel sick afterwards. But not this time. I felt full of Southern goodness as me and my lady hopped into my big-ass truck and hit the road.
