Grits n' Grunts

The most amazing dinner ever!

Blackened fish and cheddar cheese (Irish of course) grits, and bacon, sweet onion and avocado.

It was fabulous, absolutely fabulous!  So nice that we have actually changed our plans for Sunday; we are having friends of ours over, and we had originally planned to make lamb.  Well now we are making this!
