So there I was last week, having breakfast in the Morrisville Cafe in North Carolina. I was in town to visit my son, who had gone off to work for the day. I was wearing my brand new BTWS baseball cap.

The owner was behind the counter, apparently studying me while I stared at my plate, trying to decide whether or not I liked grits. After a bit, he reached into his pocket for something and placed a genuine Booker T. Washington half-dollar in front of me!

And I will learn to like grits.
