At the gas station, biscuits, tortillas—and community
Yellow pound cake is a favorite at Tookie's Grill. "A lot of people like them hot," says Tookie's co-owner Debra Gullie (left). "They're like Krispy Kreme doughnuts." Occasionally, Gullie and co-owner Renee Aycock bake something else—pineapple, strawberry or coconut creations—but it's plain and chocolate-iced pound cake that customers continue to demand for dessert—that and a cup of whipped banana pudding.Image credit: Photo by Kate Medley
