I hold onto this (and hope I do forever).
Chicken from Raisin' Cane's (we finally got one in Tikhatnu; okay, Dimond too), waffles I make myself from store brand waffle mix and...hot sauce!
Some of my favorite memories are having chicken and waffles the day before Thanksgiving. I used to talk on the phone while I was walking around Fry's in Prescott. Annoying, I'm sure, but it kept me on task. The attention to detail then: shitty paper plates, the flimsiest pre-sliced white bread, and trying to figure out how to make a blue kool-aid drank (the a is intentional) using Mad Dog and Hypnotiq.
I don't put that much effort into the details anymore. And L is too little for me to watch blaxploitation films with her. But I love chicken and waffles day. And I hope I keep it going.
