Dear Vanessa,

I'm a southern girl who migrated to Illinois at the State line.  I miss my good old fashioned Southern food.

there is a Cracker Barrel here which is about the closest thing I can get to real chicken and dumplings.  the yankees do all kinds of weird things to theirs so I don't even try it anymore.  

there is also a place that is locally owned called the Machine Shed which is pretty good too, but Home cooking it's not quite.  

I've come to love a Swedish place here and they give you plenty to eat.  It's kind of like southern food.  Brown gravy on stuff and such.

You made my mouth water.

Jenny

S on either the last weekend or next to the last weekend in July, we all head to a central location in North Carolina.  We make sure that the weekend falls on the Friday night when a local vineyard is having Jazzy Night (I believe Jazzy Night happens every other Friday evening).  The vineyard produces a local wine, and the jazz band is marvelous!!!!  Last year, the weather was so beastly that Griffin needed to stay in the hotel.  he was quite content to be in air-conditioned comfort.  Following Jazzy Night, those of us who want to head to Champs for food, fun, and more fellowship.  Then on Saturday, we all flock at a marvelous restaurant for more food, fun, and fellowship.  The food offered is good old southern traditional all-you-can-et food, and you do not leave there hungry.  From there, we head back to a home owned by one of the Florida relatives in North Carolina jsut to hang out and have fun.  So below is a brief account of our reunion this year.

She blocked our patch on one occasion from the den into the kitchen by making herself and her meow as big as possible.  My brother had to open a can of cat food to distract her in order for us to enter the kitchen.  This was necessary so we coudl exit the house in order to get into the waiting vehicle to travel down to where the famiy always gathers for the weekend.
