I took the scooter out for a short ride today. I had a great little ride and discovered an awesome little market/deli. It is called Griffin Family Market and Deli. It is way the hell out in the country down Central Pike past Mt. Juliet, Tn. It looks like an old gas station and convenience store but smells like heaven.
At this little place, much like other little southern markets, they take pride in making their own products. From the smoking of the meats to the half moon fried fruit pies, everything is done there.
When I walked in, I saw the normal shelves of packaged candies & snacks and the refrigerated beverage cases with assorted sports drinks, sodas and beer. Behind the counter is a full(and very well-equipped) kitchen. There is a small buffet-type counter and a cooler with freshly made foods from the kitchen. In the back of the store, the owner's children were sitting around on folded tables and chairs stringing popcorn for the Christmas tree.
I grabbed myself a fried apple pie and a 6 pack of Miller High Life, loaded up the scooter as the country born and bred gentleman in knee-high boots --fresh in from a cattle run-- tried to figure out what the hell I was riding and just how in the hell I was going to get the beer home on it, and I hit the winding road, relaxed and ready to share my story.
