Let's talk about food! Food is so central to each of our lives and a topic easily spoken of to bring to mind those who suffer from hunger.
"We are mountain people and so we eat mountain food...liver mush and fried cabbage, cranberry beans and nutty goodness with thick slabs of fatback." So, say V. and B. Cleaver, US authors in “When the Lily Blooms.” None of that sounds tasty to me, but what do I know? I’m not a mountain person.
If that's true for you, look no further than to Koty Earl's right there between The Coffee Shop and Ms.T's on Main St. Since February Dakota Brasher, sister Earline, and friend Cater Wood opened the place and day by day you meet Pennie, Sandra, Kim, and Peggy to make sure your breakfast is yummy. Yes, breakfast from 5 a.m. until 10:30 a.m. Monday through Friday, and 6 a.m. until 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, and then you have to wait for another day.
I have eaten there many times and love the atmosphere, sit down tables to visit with friends. You know how it is in small towns, folks know folks, come in and visit, a contribution to keeping a small community alive. Folks come from all over, let’s get in more locals!
There's more that impressed me, and it connects with previous articles about new businesses especially on Main St.
Here is another opportunity to create, a place to meet and eat, a place to work (looking for part time workers need u, call, or come by for interview) and a place for students like Journey from the Vo-Tech culinary program where her cooking thrives and Easy who is #1 dishwasher!
And that's not all. You can rent the building for events and coming in August the THURSDAY NITE all-u-can-eat breakfast with either rib eye steak or ham steak for quite reasonable prices. 5-8PM.
I thought this quite interesting, who knows how Koty Earl's will celebrate the 4th?
"Mama put a red pickled plum in the middle of some rice balls so they'd resemble the Japanese flag with its red ball of sun on a field of white." (Yoshiko Uchida. Japanese American author). Don't miss this opportunity to support local business and have a great breakfast! See you there.
BLESSINGS.
