Although it wasn't on the menu, she asked if they could make her an oyster loaf. She said Pappy himself came to their table in tears, he was so grateful that someone had asked him for this piece of his past (Memphis isn't near the ocean, of course). She was surprised to find, when the oyster loaf arrived, that it had all kinds of "fixins" (unfortunately, I no longer remember what) instead of being the plain white loaf and oysters she was used to.<br />korenninoreply@blogger.com
