First of all, I want to state for the record—I truly
earned this weekend!
Don’t get me wrong—I had a great week, but it kinda
dragged a little bit around Tuesday and Wednesday, but then it picked back up
around yesterday afternoon.
And now, here we are on this beautiful Friday evening, further
proving that good thing still come to those who wait.
And with that said, I also want to state for the record
that I truly enjoyed my family this evening at Mr. Chuck’s restaurant… and
vice-versa! Suffice it to say, we still
know how to close down the place… hahahaha! Forget a great time—the Joneses had
ourselves a grand ol’ time!
Now, check this out: Gramma Jewel is a regular at Mr.
Chuck’s place… seriously, y’all! As soon as she walked in, everybody in the
restaurant was all like: “Hey, Ms. V—long time no see!”
That’s right, y’all—Gramma Jewel is known as “Ms. V” to
the other regular patrons.
Anyway, we all met up around six this evening, and Gramma
Jewel had already ordered appetizers and everything. Come to find out, though,
Mr. Chuck has a Happy Hour special—free appetizers between 5pm and 8pm on
Fridays.
By the way, I made mention earlier on that Mr. Chuck
enjoyed our company—that wasn’t an exaggeration. You see, Mr. Chuck was born
and raised in Jackson, Mississippi, and he enjoyed our patronage so much that
he wanted to pay for our bill. Well, Gramma Jewel insisted that she pay, and
Mr. Chuck decided to take off twenty percent of the bill.
Overall, it was a great night with great food, great
family, great friends, and great fun… and y’all already know that we took a
couple pictures to commemorate this magical moment! Incidentally, Mr. Chuck
asked if he could have a couple of pictures to put on his Delta Dinin’ Wall of
Fame… and of course, we obliged him.
Okay, y’all—it’s getting late, and I’m feeling a little
drowsy. I reckon I’ll close up tonight’s blog post and turn in for the night.
Besides, my cousin Erica has one more full day out here before she returns to Fisk
University this Monday, and she wants to see the Hollywood sign up close at the
Griffith Park Observatory… YAY!!!
Until tomorrow, y’all—I’ll holla!
Hugs & Kisses,
Natasha
