I have always enjoyed dining at local restaurants. The service is almost always personable and the food tends to be prepared with an ingredient you can’t buy anywhere — love.
Would you go to a store, open a package of socks and tell the cashier you’re only paying for one pair because that’s all you need?

If you haven’t already taken notice, today’s Delta Democrat-Times includes a special edition — Women in Business.
