I’m a sucker for a good sausage, egg, and cheese biscuit. I like the homemade version way better than McDonalds’, simply because I like the homemade biscuits better. But if I’m in a rush and I don’t have time to bake up a batch, I’ll just head over to Bryant’s. Service is normally pretty quick on weekday mornings, but I haven’t really... [Read more...]
