I love the #WaffleHouse. I love everything about the Waffle House I go to every now and again.
I love the down-to-earth people there. I love how the head cook has her uniform tidy and her hair in what looks like a tichel but Waffle House branded.
I love how the diner waitress calls me “baby”… “Here ya go baby. You need anything else, hon.” all through her frazzled hair and mid-shift. I love how they call their orders out to the cooks and it’s acknowledged with a simple nod of the head.
I love the energy, conversations, barely audible music, noise of the kitchen, the smells, the laughter, the razzing and jabs of the crew, the greasy-spoon nature of the food, the entirety of the Waffle House.
And THIS is my little celebration of having a little victory. Shot day wasn’t as good as I wanted but with the help of a friend… a victory nonetheless.
