“Would you like some eggs?” Denny asks me from the kitchen. “Sure. And if you could grill a bit of tomato on the side, that would be great. And put the eggs on a bed of spinach. You probably won’t have time to do hashbrowns, though.” “No, I won’t.” Denny is off to work this… Continue reading Episode 63 – Is That a Purse, Mr. Denny?
