This region (Michigan) doesn't have a sawmill gravy tradition.
I didn't even hear of biscuits and gravy until I was almost 40.

If I want an indulgent breakfast, it'll be Eggs Benedict. I'm
just not that into gravy. Even on Thanksgiving, I put a little
on my turkey, but none on the potatoes or stuffing.
