My Love Note:
Dear SPTR Grilled Cheese,
You’re always there for me; my late night savior to settle the sloshing, my morning after relief to give me balance, and my fuel during the workweek to keep me going. Nowhere else in the city can I get satisfaction like this. Sorry, but I must be honest… I’ve tried. I mean, three cheeses between thick pieces of sourdough bread, grilled, stacked, and melting into the plate next to that bowl of soup ready for dunking? You kill me! And when the gooey cheese flows like lava from the bread, binding to the mac and cheese to make that perfect union of a bite? I’m powerless and starving. Starving for you.
