2/8: grits!!!

Recently I have become obsessed with, of all things, grits.  Because DAMN, have you tasted good grits?  They are really good. I think grits must be kind of like gnocchi - if done well, they are incredible.  But most incarnations are nasty stuff, so many people (including moi) think that they don't like them.  Until they taste the good stuff.

Anyway, I did a ton of interwebby research and found the source of (supposedly) the tastiest organic, stone-ground, heirloom grits in this fine land: Anson Mills.  I ordered up some Antebellum Coarse Grits and Carolina Whole Hominy Quick Grits. They arrived today.  Can't wait to cook 'em up.

When I lived in the South and told people I didn't like grits they'd all, without fail, say, "But you haven't had MY grits."

Um...I don't like grits.
