The Best Brains In Town

Back At Home
Thanks for all your prayers over the past few weeks as Karen and I made our nomadic journey from NC to PA to NY to Canada, and back. Yes, we've safely returned to Good Old Graham and are once again operating out of our GOMEX office. It's nice to be home for a few days as we prepare to leave on a shorter road trip the end of the month. We'll say goodbye to the puppies to participate in a conference at our church in Lancaster, PA. We'll also follow-up with some of the missions-minded students I previously connected with at Lancaster Bible College (where we started our journey one month ago).

The Best Brains In Town
On a personal note, after about a year of searching, I've found the best brains in town.

The Best Brains In Town

Granted, you can't get "Brains-n-Eggs" at Cracker Barrel or Bob Evans...but this morning I was pleasantly surprised to find them as a $5.29 selection (brains, eggs, grits, white toast, grape jelly and all the coffee you can drink) at Stavro's Grill, a local...somewhat iconic...eatery in downtown Burlington. My business compatriot, who was kind enough to take the photo, has been blessed to be with me on each of my three forays into grilled gray cells. I gotta say, after doing the brains-for-breakfast thing at Park Restaurant, Pano's Cafe, and Staro's Grill--Stavro's nailed 'em.



So let's do a great Southern breakfast the next time you're in town and you can make up your own mind!

No thanks. The only grey matter I am glad to experience is what is between my ears!

Is this something you enjoyed before moving south or is it a new tastebud adventure? I think I might sick with good 'ol biscuits and gravy.

Hey Pastor John, What about the gray stuff on your head and chin?

Old Codger said...

Ralph & Brenda...brains and eggs is something of a Southern taste bud adventure without much actual taste. Eating pork brains is more of a mental thing.

If I make it your way for a visit, I'm definitely up for a new recipe!! :)

You're ON, Karebear!

Brains and grits, I think I'll stick to Blackpudding, much more British ;)

Blackpudding it is, then! More British as it should be!
