April 5, 2020. Madison, Mississippi. A Change.

Ever since we came to Mississippi we have gone out Sunday morning with the family for brunch. We selected a different restaurant each week. A couple of years ago we delegated to the girls to decide on the restaurant. Mary Frances suggested Pig & Pint for this weekends outing. But when she called to make a reservation, she discovered that the place is closed on Sunday. We were already set to eat barbecue so Christina suggested we dine together on Saturday evening. No one can go out so we all agreed. We would eat brunch Saturday night. Christina and the girls, minus Kate, picked up the food ordered on line. The restaurant people brought out the food to the car. And when they arrived at my house we sat down for dinner. We had fun perhaps because we do not normally have dinner together. The evening seemed festive. The food was good too. Both Molly and I ate ribs along with Mac & cheese and southern style green beans. The meat just fell off the bones. Both Christina and Mary Frances ate smoked chicken nachos which they too said was good. So a change of routine proved to be a good thing. But next Sunday we will probably eat brunch together because I missed seeing everyone this morning, as did Kashina. But dinner together last evening was a hit. Switching routines is always a good thing.
