big bad breakfast

OMG. Mom and I went to visit Preston in Oxford and we had the bestest breakfast! My friend Charley recommended this place called Big Bad Breakfast, which is owned by the same people as City Grocery and Boure.

BBB was super-crowded so we put our names on the list and headed over to the neighboring antique/junk shop to kill some time, which was a pleasure in itself.
I got the Secret History omelet, which was HUGE and fluffy, filled with tomatoes, herbs, shallots, and swiss cheese. I chose the grits and biscuits to accompany it and added a side of fruit.

BBB uses as many local ingredients as possible: dairy products from Billy Ray's Farm in Yocona, Mississippi State cheese, all the bacon and sausage is smoked on premesis, orange juice is squeezed each morning, the preserves are made fresh each day, and the herbs come from the chef's organic garden.
In the words of Joey Lawrence, "whoa!"

I highly recommend Big Bad Breakfast for whenever y'all head to Oxford!

happy birthday...

Happy birthday to us, happy birthday to us!
Happy birthday to u-us, Happy birthday to us!
... and many mooooooore!

Well, last night Muddy's Bake Shop turned one! (Our birthday is technically February 29, which is a leap year, so I figure on non-leap years our birthday is midnight between February 28 and March 1!)

I'd like to take a minute to really thank everyone who made it possible:
my family,
friends,
employees past and present,
suppliers, landlords, and other business partners,
all of my wonderful customers who are so quick with an encouraging word and a smile,
and most importantly the Lord for being with me and accepting the control I very reluctantly handed over to Him.
Muddy's would still be a figment of my imagination if it weren't for all of you.

THANK YOU!!!
