today, in celebration of the great freedoms of our country, we had brunch at j christophers. this is a new place in town, and the menu is quite voluminous. we had blueberry pancakes & eggs & toast & bacon & biscuits & country ham & grapes & cheese grits & home fries. all was wonderfully delish. the menu had everything from caramel-pecan waffles & cinnamon rolls & bagels & french toast to eggs benedict & omelettes & crepes & yogurt parfaits. it was very difficult to make decisions. perhaps we shall go back and sample some of the other treats another day.

there was a problem, though -- our waiter was terrible... to us. he waited on all the tables around us and virtually ignored us. we had to flag the guy down a couple times to get him to bring us the check and then get him to take the payment. we didn't need anything during the meal, but it would have been nice to have been checked on... and he was checking on surrounding tables. really, he was a terrible waiter. we generally tip 20%, so he only got 15%, but he doesn't even know we were punishing him. criminy.

but the pancakes were yummy!!
