Me and my husband met while serving in the Air Force 53 years ago. There were those nights when we were short on time. Before getting home one of us would stop by the Piggly Wiggly and pick up several of the Swanson TV Dinners. I loved the fried chicken and I remember his favorite was the Mexican dinner. I can’t recall which dinner it was that had the little brownie dessert, but I scarfed them up no matter whose dinner it was in. Yes, he spoiled me and I loved him for that treatment.
