Grits

I ate grits today, never before and perhaps never again. Actually, they were cheese grits.

Grits, I came to find out, are a product of corn - somehow being reduced from crop to grain to paste and usually suffocated by butter or cheese. Today, the grits died in a pool of cheese. They never stood a chance.

Did you also know that the public transportation (little shuttles usually reserved for Car rental companies when they pick you up or drop you off at the airport) of Owensboro is known as GRITS: Green River Inter(?) Transportation System? Splendid.

Grits: Ride it, drown 'em, love 'em!
