Rico and I decide to not make a big deal out of Valentine’s Day this year.
We needed a new laptop for the business so that was our big gift for each other.
We usually like to splurge on a nice dinner at Ruth’s Chris or 440 on Main but with the economy tanking we decided to go to Buffalo Wild Wings and indulge my love of Spicy Garlic chicken wings and potato wedges.
It was a great afternoon until I found out….
THAT THE WAFFLE HOUSE WAS BRINGING OUT WHITE LINENS AND CANDLE LIGHT FOR VALENTINE’S DAY!
For Reals People! I coulda had a patty melt and some hash browns covered, smothered, scattered, diced, jalopenoed, and covered with Bert’s chili. What a better way to show some love to someone than to give them heartburn?
I love me some Waffle House. It’s the redneck altar to the God of grease.
Had I known this monumental event was taking place, I would have been there in my Sunday best soaking up the grease with a smile on my face and sunshine in my heart.
So I’m telling you all now, as God as my witness, next Valentine’s Day I will be patronizing the Waffle House and this glorious event.

Oh, Honey! I love me some Waffle House, too. I have to drive a ways to get to one, but it’s worth it to indulge in all of the artery-clogging goodness that they serve up there.

Who knew the Waffle House had white linens??? I would be all over that as well! And candlelight…don’t get me started. They should keep a booth like that all the time, just in case you get the urge for romance and greasy goodness at four in the morning!
