Back...and Out of Chikin!!

Ahhh...it's been about half a year since I've written on this blog...And so here I am, back again, but this time writing from a place I never expected to be...To sum it up...

"Everything's bigger in Texas!"

I'm out here in the suburbs of Dallas in Plano where my parents just moved. Now sure I could write about the wide open skies, the ridiculously large roads, the country music, or just them strange Texans brimming with Texas pride. But rather I'm gonna write about something near and dear to my heart...FOOD...well sort of...

So one thing I really miss about Pittsburgh, besides the wonderful people there =), is actually one of my favorite fast food restaurants.



















Chick-fil-a! Man I miss this place. I miss heading down to the waterfront, getting one of their chicken sandwhiches, eating their waffle fries with my gross mix of ketchup and mayo, and of course...free refills of SWEET TEA!

So it's been about a year since I've had Chick-fil-a and I've had a hankering for it. So on the drive down to Texas, as we started heading into the south, man there were so many chick-fil-a's along the road, that my mouth couldn't stop watering. But I never got to go to any of them, but I was sure glad that when I got into Texas, there were plenty of Chick-fil-a's around.

So I've been dying to go to one, and so I was at the mall today, and I was completely hyped because there was a Chick-fil-a in the foodcourt. Determined and excited, I rushed to the food court, with a single focus. When I got there I saw the greatest disappointment.

Chick-fil-a was closed!!! The gate was brought down over the counter and the lights were off. =(

One thing I forgot about Chick-fil-a, which is something that makes it especially awesome, is that Chick-fil-a is a Christian chain. If you go to their restaurants, all they play is contemporary Christian music or worship music. But in the same vein, that also means they're closed on Sundays.

So my disappointment of the day. But before I leave Texas, to Chick-fil-a I must go!

To sum it up....

EAT MORE CHIKIN!!

There was an article on Chick-fil-a not long ago abt the Christian business it practices in one of the national newspapers, I forget which. I never had a chance to visit one, but I'm sure I'll love it...
