Charles That looks really good. I love grits, although I don’t have them very often. My go-to breakfast when I dine in is eggs Benedict. However, if they have grits wherever I go next, you have inspired me to change it up.

Do You Ever Borrow Money From Yourself?

Jim Bauer @porwest (99773) • United States 20 Nov 22
