Great memories that take you back to a time when things were simple. When the little things made you happy. Things that make you smile and feel good. What things take you back in time and make you smile?
Fried Green Tomatoes
What is it about the taste
Of fried green tomatoes that
takes me back to my
Grandmas kitchen table
Waiting there patiently for
Grandma to get done because
She won’t stop until the plate
Is piled high
Finally she turns and puts
The plate on the table
And we dig in
That first taste that burns our
Tongues because we can’t wait
Is eye rolling good
The only sound you hear
Is fork scraping the plate
And lips smacking with the
Sound of appreciation
The pile has gone down
To only one or two left
On the plate
And all is good because
Grandma smiles
And that is all we need
We will remember the
Taste of Fried Green Tomatoes
