Isabel is a positive thinker. We've just returned from a couple nights in Oxford, Mississippi, where Kiddo attended orientation at the University of Mississippi. While Kiddo was off doing his thing, Huzzybuns and I looked at apartments and condos because the dorms are full and Kiddo needs a place to live. Naturally, we went to Square Books:
And, Off-Square Books (the secondhand and remainders store):
I did not come out of without buying something. Figures. I got two books:New Orleans, Mon Amour by Andrei Codrescu
Rather Die Fighting (a WWII memoir) by Frank Blaichman
Mamasita, the Off-Square Books store cat was not present. I was worried about her because I know she's been around a few years. So, I asked where she was. I think I was holding my breath, actually, but she's okay. Mamasita occasionally wonders out the door and around the town square and she just went a bit too far, a couple times. She is "on vacation" being an indoor cat for her safety. Whew!
We ate at Taylor Grocery, which some of you may have heard me (and, more importantly, Alton Brown) mention in the past. They cook melt-in-your-mouth catfish:
Fortunately, we went on Friday. They're going to be closed on Sunday: 
In case you can't read the sign, it says: "We will be closed Sunday nite to watch Eli beat the Patriots AGAIN. Sorry." We had a terrific time (and I'm tempted to move to Oxford with Kiddo; it's such a
great place). But, we're happy to be home. :)
