Mississippi in Portland.<\/p>\n<p>On the way out, I noticed a new next door neighbor (new to me), which is called Mac! Mac and Cheesery, and I thought to myself, &#8220;Self, you&#8217;re on your way home, and who loves mac n cheese more than Mrs. Burgerdogboy? No one!).  So I ambled in and perused <a href=\"http:\/\/macmaccheesery.yolasite.com\/menu.php\">the menu<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Myriad of combos await the discerning m &amp; c lover, with &#8220;original&#8221; topping the list, but you may avail yourself of numerous ingredients to blend in &#8211; whether your taste buds tingle for truffles, or you salivate for &#8220;Southwestern&#8221;,  have a vice for vegan, or brag about bacon.<\/p>\n<p>I went with original with bacon, noting that the &#8220;b&#8221; word at our house is spoken in hushed tones, we hold it in such high regard.<\/p>\n<p>I texted Mrs. BDB (not while driving!) that I was on my way home with a yummy, and delivered it to her in her home office.<\/p>\n<p>She loved it, not only because it&#8217;s great mac n cheese, and had delicious pork parts in it, but also because it resembles the &#8220;baked kind&#8221; in that the top is sprinkled with bread crumbs and slightly browned.<\/p>\n<p>I was offered a morsel or two, and I believe this to be a fine product, worthy of your attention.  The shop also has sandwiches, burgers, and dogs, which will require an in-house visit for a complete and thorough examination.<\/p>\n<p>Did I mention they have cocktails?  I did not.  They do.  When Mrs. BDB and I get in there for a sit down repast, I predict a long and enjoyable day.<\/p>\n<p>Now I&#8217;m off to roast coffee beans.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/burgersdogspizza.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/mac1.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-6821\" title=\"mac1\" src=\"http:\/\/burgersdogspizza.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/mac1.png\" alt=\"Mac!
