If I had a nickel for every guy I’ve hooked up with who asked me if I’m a lesbian right before I had sex with him, I’d have two nickels.

Southern Atheism - King's Hawaiian

King’s Hawaiian Bread will always taste exactly like the Body of Christ to me. 

As a child, communion Sunday was always a happy surprise. I liked watching as the pastor blessed the bread and broke it, one half always bigger than the other. “and Jesus said: ‘Take, eat; this is my body which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of me.’”

When it was our turn, my family would file out of the pew, my father stepping aside to let my mom, my sister, I go first. At the altar, a man with shaking hands would tear a piece of bread and press it into my open palm. I put it in my mouth. It exhaled, it’s soft sweetness filling my mouth.

“Oh hey!” I exclaim from the couch, “It’s communion Sunday at the Methodist Church this week.”

She laughs,“Hm maybe. It could be fun.”

My head falls back and my face flushes from the wine when I look up from my phone. Kaitlin is still seated at the high top everything table in our shared college apartment.

“Did your church use King’s Hawaiian for communion?” I ask her. 

“Yeah, it was the best.”

“I feel like that’s the right way to do communion.” I say. “When I go to other churches that have the dry crackers, I just don’t like it. It doesn’t taste like Jesus.”

“My mom wants me and Jared to do a ‘God unity’ thing at the wedding,” Kaitlin tells me. 

“Oh,” I say.

“Like a unity braid or a candle?” I ask,

“Yeah, my sister did one at her wedding.”

“Do you think you’ll do it?”

“I’m going to see if we can do communion and see if that appeases her.” 

We both laugh. “I like communion,” I say, “but only if it’s King’s Hawaiian.”

She nods.

Unfortunately, Kaitlin’s wedding venue supplied a loaf of house made bread.
