1974

It’s October here in Macon, and now that we are having perfect weather and I’ve moved to a house in the country, many of my friends have decided it’s time to come for a visit. It’s funny how people have preconceived notions of places and what they offer. The last couple that came to visit arrived with a knapsack. I had agreed to buy the chicken and rice and they provided the accoutrements. They were equipped with exotic spices, such as mole poblano from Mexico, blind and beluga, organically grown tomatoes (as if we don’t have them here), and radichio, all to be washed down with iced Kord. To top it off, my friend Sam pulled out a fine bottle of Chateau Latour. The Atlantans are like New Yorkers; they think if they leave the bor- der of their city, they arrive in the desert. What they don’t know is that plenty of folks come down just for cuisine smothered and fried.
