May 4, 2018. Madison, Mississippi. Cat Fish.

The fried cat fish was the highlight of our day. Ken and I had not eaten catfish since the Harper Volunteer Firemen held their fish fry last Spring. Today we ate our delicious food from Primos, a Jackson treasure. Ken had an appointment with Dr. Collins, his Urologist. Kendria drove us in our car for his 9:30 appointment. All went well and Ken's plumbing is in order and the doctor thinks the cancer is under control. Now we see him again in 4 weeks. On the way home, I suggested to Kendra that we stop at Primos to pick up their special lunch meal. Their lunch menu starts at 10:45 so we were in good time. Four weeks ago when we stopped we were too early but today we were later so we were in luck. Primos always has two options. Kendria selected the beef tips while Ken and I ordered fried catfish. For sides we selected creamed spinach and butter peas, which turned out to be small lima beans. Delicious. I also ordered peach cobbler for dessert and 2 bowls of vegetable gumbo for supper. My cooking needs were over for the day. In our home, 1:00 is our time to eat lunch but by the time we got home and smelled the good food, we all felt hungry so sat down and ate at 11:30. We three wolfed down our whole meal followed by a short nap. I tried to read but kept falling asleep so finally gave up and we all three took a nap. You know life is simple when a catfish meal was the highlight of our day. Ah the simple pleasures of life.
