When she married, she moved up to Connecticut. With her siblings living in North Carolina and Alabama, we would vacation most every summer by driving down south and visiting all our Aunts and Uncles. My dad was use to his Italian meals, so this was the only time we got to eat all the great southern foods like hush puppies, grits, corn bread and barbecue pork and that great sweet iced tea. It was something we looked forward to each year. We would seek out great little restaurants to visit during our drive. One year, my mom realized we missed the exit for our favorite Pit Cooked Bar B Q joint. She just couldn’t miss the chance at having what she said was the best barbecue sandwich and coleslaw. As it turned out, we had to go about 90 minutes out of our way. When we finally arrived at the restaurant very hungry and road tired., we rushed to the door to find it locked, and then noticed a sign in the window saying “ON VACATION. I could see the look of devastation on my mom’s face, and she knew us four kids couldn’t wait too much longer before we ate, so it was off to the nearest MacDonalds - of all places. Despite our disappointment, we got our fill of southern cooking when we got down to Aunt Dot’s, as well as Pit BBQ at the 4th of July picnic in town along with our coleslaw, roasted corn on the cob, watermelon and our beloved sweet iced tea. We have grown to love our summer tradition of southern food - such a very special treat, and we laugh about the trek to find our favorite BBQ only to find it closed.
