Oh man, that made me hungry!

I'd appreciate it!

Eggs are tricky in general, I think. Mine definitely still have the tendency to be sketchy.

You would like grits. (I saw this to everybody.) Do they even sell grits in the grocery store in Colorado?

[jen19h]

Yep. Cereal aisle, right next to the oatmeal...3 different containers - though I believe they're all Quaker. Plus...I think we have organic ones on the baking aisle. Maybe I shall have to try them sometime soon!
