Oxford, Mississippi is one of the prettiest towns I've ever visited. I grew up 20 miles from it and spent many date nights in high school going to the mall to see movies. Oxford is home to Ole Miss, Square Books, William Faulkner and my favorite restaurant in Mississippi: Ajax. If you go to the square you will find many cute shops full of Mississippi pottery and other gifts from the great state. Neilson's (pronounced nellson's) is a great old department store for clothing, cosmetics and other souvenirs.

Ajax is my favorite restaurant in Mississippi. The pot roast, turnip greens, cheese grits and sweet potato casserole are my favorites. The chocolate chess pie is hysterically delicious. My friend Stephanie and I took her younger sister Holly to check it out.
Oxford, Mississippi is also the home of the famous writer William Faulkner. His home Roanoke is open to the public. You can walk there from the square.
