Notes on a visit to Oxford, MS

Post #1 - October 30th, 2007, 10:18 pmThe best thing of travel is coming upon unexpected beauty:
The next best thing is to be all grown up and not have your Father shoot down your hopes of visiting "a tourist trap:"
Revisit your inner child bursting with delight and curiosity when the shop girl demonstrates how to make a shaved ice dessert (youtube.com). This is a peaches and cream: peach syrup then sweetened condensed milk is squirted on for an extra 25 cents.
While Sno Biz offers shaved ice and ice cream treats, they are also a source for Mississippi Delta Hot Tamales. Luckily for me I visited them on their last day of operation for this year. It also meant they were sold out of tamales.

Post #3 - October 30th, 2007, 11:44 pmThe sno-cone maker reminded me of Parker Posey in "Waiting for Guffman." Charlie Rose couldn't have handled that interview better; how was the finished product?
