As I left you we were gratefully falling into bed, but the next morning, Thursday, we were up and ready to get started to finish setting up and decorating the booth. We made a quick trip to a supermarket (don’t you always forget something??) and our check-out cashier, Peter, gave us some great advice on getting some breakfast:
The OK Cafe

What a great, funky, Southern restaurant, with good food and smiles everywhere–not just the employees, but all the customers were having a grand old time before 9 AM! The decor is a cross between mid-fifties kitsch and recent folk art, with sculpture everywhere, including a 2-story “money tree” in the middle of the round dining room. The waitresses might be dressed like those in American Graffiti, but they were absolutely, positively one-of-a-kind characters, who were all tremendously helpful, gracious and fun. Our first waitress, Chelly, was a dead ringer for Diana Ross c.1968–tall & willowy with that great angled haircut and super-sultry soft voice. And AJ, who dressed her hair with a fabulous sparkly corsage, had a blinding smile and personality that was both sparkly and blinding! The food was great, and copious too-I asked if anyone ever finished the 12″ pancakes we saw going by, and you guessed it, the answer was no.
