My First Trip to Marcy Jo's Mealhouse in Pottsville, TN

When this place came into view, I simply shrieked! 

I had looked it up online and Evan had gone on and on about it - so I "knew" what to expect, but seeing it live and in person was just fantastic!   

It's just about the most quaint and welcoming little place you will ever see... and it is LITTLE! If you blink, you'll miss it - so whatever you do,

DON'T BLINK!  

When we walked in, I gasped so loud people turned to look...  The screen door sounds just like your granny's did and the old wooden floors greet your tootsies with old timey warmth upon entering... 

The photo below shows the view from the front door... Will you just take a look at this beautifully fantastical little world full of eye candy... 

The shot below was taken from the balcony area, which houses Sugar Plum Lane - owned by Laura Ring - in this area many local artisans display their wares...



The food was amazing... Good home cooking... I had eggs, bacon, fried potatoes and wheat toast (homemade bread) - 

We were there just a few days before Christmas and
there wasn't a large crowd, but they were out of their famous cookbooks (( :^(  )) 

If you're in the neighborhood, this is a MUST TRY!   

You'll find it in Columbia / Pottsville, TN - not too terribly far from Nashville and WELL worth the drive...

My First Trip to Arnold's Meat & 3 - Nashville, TN

On a recent trip to Nashville, Evan insisted that we try to have lunch at Arnold's before leaving town... 

As we arrived I couldn't help but notice that there was a line out the door and nearly to the street.  You'll forgive me for not having a photo of that, I was busy spewing curse words and insisting that this food could not possibly be worth this line, especially on the last day of the trip when I was starting to become anxious to be back in my "bubble of home"...

As it turned out, I was as wrong as wrong can be my friends... 

Not only is it worth standing in line, it's worth the drive to Nashville if you're in that region of the country... You MUST check the hours first though, they're not open on weekends - Phenomenal food, absolutely the best Turnip Greens I have ever eaten, an interesting atmosphere and an overall great experience....

Below is a video I was able to find online to give us a little more background on the place .... enjoy!
