Instructions

I’ve mentioned it here before and I’ll mention it again—my tastes have come a long way since high school. I lived off chicken fingers and cheese sticks in those days, with a few chocolate malts in between. (Thanks, Mom and Dad, for that high speed metabolism!) In my small Alabama town, it was a huge deal when the mass chain restaurants finally popped up along our little sliver of the interstate.
